Good morning everyone!

I can’t believe it’s already time for another installment of foodie-Friday! This week I wanted to share some recipes I’ve collected for you in case you’re looking to have an eye-healthy Fourth of July!

Fourth of July is the perfect reason to grill out with family and friends, and burgers are always at the top of the must-have list for the holiday! If you’re brave enough, try out these black-bean burgers, which have gotten rave reviews on allrecipes.com*:

Another Fourth necessity? Side dishes! Try this grape and avocado salsa to wow your guests (and please their eyes, inside and out!)

And what’s Fourth of July food without something sweet? For a treat that will keep you cool and keep your eyes happy, healthy, and ready for those fireworks, whip up some of these fresh fruit and yogurt ice pops:

I hope everyone has a safe and happy Fourth of July!
