The fourth month of the year is coming up soon and it gives us a wide variety of opportunities to get into celebration mode with different foods. If you are looking to spice up your upcoming month, why not give these three April food holidays a try?
April 8: National Empanada Day
Empanadas, a type of fried savory pie that typically contains meat and/or vegetables, are a favorite throughout the Spanish-speaking world. April 8th affords us an opportunity to buy empanadas from our favorite bakery or make our own in order to spice things up!
April 17: National Cheeseball Day
Who hasn’t been to a party and seen a cheeseball on the table of snacks? This appetizer favorite, which combines different types of cheese with cream cheese, sour cream, and other flavorings, can be served with crackers or veggies for dipping and spreading.
April 23: National Picnic Day
The end of the month of April is usually synonymous with good weather, so why not celebrate National Picnic Day on April 23rd? Head to your favorite park or green area and take your favorite foods to eat outside with friends or loved ones.
