I can’t believe 4th of July is next week!  Where did June go?  I guess we have been too busy having fun in the sun (with lots of sun screen of course.)  Fourth of July is one of my favorite holidays.  There are always parties, homemade ice cream, and fireworks!  What is not to love?!?

With summer being berry season, it is also very easy to make healthy, patriotic dishes to help your family celebrate (and make you look like a very cool mom with little effort!)  This healthy, all-american breakfast takes no effort.  If you can make toast, then you can make this recipe.

What you need:

• Whole Wheat Toast
• Cottage Cheese*
• Strawberries, sliced
• Blueberries

Here is how you do it:

Toast your bread.  Slice some strawberries while it is toasting.  Spread cottage cheese on the toast.  Top toast with blueberries and sliced strawberries to make your toast look like a flag.

*If you don’t think your little one will go for cottage cheese, you can substitute low-fat cream cheese.

I hope you and your family enjoy a fun, healthy breakfast this 4th of July!
