Bacon Wrapped Burgers and Flag Sugar Cookies

If there is one thing that my family loves, it is the Fourth of July. It is so much fun to get together with family and friends and spend the day at the parades, parks, and fireworks. But it is also fun to be at home and have a delicious BBQ. This is one of our favorite traditions. Planning a Fourth of July BBQ can seem overwhelming, but I am going to share a little secret that makes it super easy and takes all the stress out of it, so you can have fun and relax…Smith’s ClickList!

Smith’s ClickList makes it so you can shop online and pick either home delivery or store pick-up. They make it really easy to find what you are looking for by having categories you can look though, a search bar (that even makes suggestions while you type) and you can also look at your recent purchases and sale items. Another great thing that I love, is that you can use your digital coupons with your order, to save even more.

I went online the night before and place my order from the comfort of my home, then the next morning, the groceries were delivered to my door for a small fee. I have to tell you, that with a busy day and a house full of kids, this was a really big thing to get marked off my list, without having to do much on my part. The groceries were delivered in black crates (in grocery bags). We carried the crates into our house, unloaded them and then gave them back to the delivery lady. I was so excited to get all of the grocery shopping done online for the week, plus get everything we needed for the party in a just a few minutes on my computer (you can also order on your phone, tablet, etc).

You can also choose to pick up at the store, so if you are on your way home from work or already going to be out doing errands, you can save yourself a lot of time, by placing your order online and then picking it up at the store at your selected time. They are quick and very friendly, which ever way you choose.

Because we were able to get our grocery shopping done and delivered, it left us with a lot more time to do things like clean up the house, meal prep and make decorations. We also prepared a fun DIY dessert for everyone to make when the meal was over – DIY Flag Sugar Cookies. These were a hit. I want to share our 4th of July BBQ with our bacon wrapped burgers with you as well as the Flag Sugar Cookies so you can have a great holiday party of your own.

The Bacon Wrapped Burgers were easy to make and tasted AMAZING! Take a strip of bacon, cut it lengthwise and wrap it around the burger (see pictures). Once you have these ready, you will grill them until the burger is done and the bacon is crispy. Add cheese on the top when they are done, and let it melt. Top with lettuce, tomatoes, pickles, etc for the best bacon-cheeseburger you have ever had!

The Flag Sugar Cookies were fun to make and tasted so good! All you need are sugar cookies, cream cheese frosting, strawberries (sliced into 8-10 pieces each), and blueberries. Frost the cookie with the frosting, add the strawberries for the red stripes (the frosting is the white stripes) and the blueberries are part of the stars. The kids loved making (and eating) these.

We got everything we needed from Smith’s Food & Drug for our fun holiday party! Be sure to check out ClickList and get your grocery shopping done stress-free!
