Whisk orange juice, lime juice, olive oil, garlic, dried onion, oregano, cilantro, salt, and black pepper together in a bowl until marinade is smooth. Measure out 1/4 cup of the marinade and set aside. Pour remaining marinade into a resealable plastic bag, place chicken in the bag, squeeze out excess air, and seal the bag. Marinate chicken in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes.

This veggie burger is packed with veggie and quinoa goodness including lots of meatless protein. A great alternative to a beef burger and just as hearty and filling. It can be cooked on the grill or baked in the oven. The egg and cheese may be left out to make this recipe vegan.
4th of July Fruit Kabobs
I make these fruit skewers every year for the 4th of July for the kids and they are always a major hit - older kids can help with the assembly. Don't cut the watermelon too thinly, otherwise the stars will break when you are trying to skewer them.

This watermelon strawberry mango lemonade smoothie (WSMLS) recipe is perfect for any occasion. My family loved WSMLS. It was very easy to make. My eleven-year-old daughter made it with me. This recipe does not need ice. You might need to make three batches to fill up a pitcher.
