April Food Holidays for At-Home Celebrations

National Burrito Day - April 2

Burritos are among one of the easiest, filling, and scrumptious meals you could ever enjoy, and you can do just that on April 2 for National Burrito Day. Whether you want to start your day with a jam-packed breakfast burrito full of eggs, bacon, and hash browns, or you are looking to bring a familiar Mexican flavor to family dinner, there are a ton of recipes out there you can make right at home. 

This recipe for smothered honey lime chicken burritos is simple, packed with flavor and easy to make right at home. 

National Beer Day - April 7

Ales, IPAs, sours, and lagers - oh my! Nothing says spring like an ice-cold beer to celebrate the turning of the seasons and the weather. Fun fact, April 7 commemorates the end of the 1933 Prohibition. After signing the law that would allow Americans to brew and distribute alcohol again, President Roosevelt famously said, "I think this would be a good time for a beer!" Lucky for you, National Beer Day is set for April 7 and you can celebrate it with your favorite brew. Check out your local distributor, brewery, or grocery to stock up on your favorite beer for the occasion! If beers not your thing, wine will do. Here are two Usual Wine coupons that will help you save on wine delivery:

National Grilled Cheese Day - April 12

The sandwich of your childhood (and let's face it, your adulthood too) is set to be commemorated on April 12 for National Grilled Cheese Day! Falling on the same day as Easter, you can celebrate this other holiday by grilling up an ooey-gooey sandwich with your favorite cheese and thick, buttery bread.

National Pretzel Day - April 26

Last but not least, you can go out of April with a bang by celebrating the salty goodness of pretzels on National Pretzel Day on April 26! While you could celebrate with a good ol fashioned bag of pretzel sticks, this day calls for a freshly baked soft pretzel. Break out the mustard, beer cheese, or another dipping of your choice and enjoy!

Whether you're gorging on a sky-high grilled cheese or throwing back a few of your favorite brew, April is sure to be a month full of delicious snacks and great food celebrations.
