With the big holiday this weekend, we bet you would rather be out having fun than spending too much time in the kitchen. That’s especially true if you are having out-of-town guests. We went through our recipe archives and found some holiday weekend recipes for you to fix and serve. Each one can be made ahead, and most can be made and frozen. All you have to do at meal time is warm them up and set the table. Happy eating!

Rhubuab Strawberry Crisp is one of my Go-To early summer recipes. However, for my Book Club Dessert Sunday night I am fixing Strawberry Shortcakes. Last weekend I had the Best Strawberry shortcake at Vivian Howard’s, Chef and the Farmer and I want to replicate it. It is full of adult flavors.
