I would bring veggies or pita/crackers to dip. Tabbouleh is a nice hardy salad that I often add chickpeas and chopped cooked chicken and feta to. Nice all in one meal. Tortellini pasta salad is another - mixed with cherry tomatoes, chunks of cheese and ham, olives, and pesto or Italian dressing. Apple slices and pretzels in Nutella or PB dip (whip peanut butter, cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla together - add Cool Whip or marshmallow fluff if you like it fluffier). Sandwiches made on tortillas glued with mustard or hummus stay together nicely and you don't have to worry about squish. Cold quesadillas. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/easy-picnic-food-ideas#post-2726924 Thu, 20 Apr 2017 14:53:45 +0000 youboots 2726924@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I made a Italian salad- salami, cubed cheese, pepperchinis, olives etc mixed with olive oil and seasoning. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/easy-picnic-food-ideas#post-2726920 Thu, 20 Apr 2017 14:48:11 +0000 SweetCaroline 2726920@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@looch: that looks delicious!</p> <p>@LuLu Mom: great idea! I was leaning toward bento type boxes, with a few, easy small tweaks for each person. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/easy-picnic-food-ideas#post-2726585 Thu, 20 Apr 2017 08:14:48 +0000 LuLu Mom 2726585@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>For picnics I usually buy a Rotisserie chicken and shred it and make a pasta salad and combine it and cut up some fruit. Otherwise I'll make sandwiches ahead of time or "lunchables" aka make our own cheese/meat/cracker kits for the kids. I usually throw in more snacks like pouch applesauce and yogurt for them as well. I like things I can pull out of bag and put onto plate and eat immediately so it's quick and only ever need a fork. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/easy-picnic-food-ideas#post-2726579 Thu, 20 Apr 2017 08:09:20 +0000 looch 2726579@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have been wanting to make this savory cake, it seems like it's perfect for a picnic.</p> <p><a href="http://www.bbc.co.uk/food/recipes/cheese_pistachio_and_85849" rel="nofollow">http://www.bbc.co.uk/food/recipes/cheese_pistachio_and_85849</a> </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/easy-picnic-food-ideas#post-2726568 Thu, 20 Apr 2017 07:41:11 +0000 SweetCaroline 2726568@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Our family (DH, DD 2 yrs and myself) love hiking, biking and picnicking on the weekends.</p> <p>What are your best picnic food ideas? Preferable no prep needed at mealtime, all prepped beforehand.</p> <p>I bought a big sectioned tray that I think would be good for fruit, salami, cheese, etc. Need more creative ideas! </p>
