Add cubed chicken if you like or add some short pasta if you want it as a pasta salad.<br /> -Handrolled sushi. Just take sushi nori, cut into quarters, and take a Tupperware of sushi rice tossed with a little rice vinegar and sugar, and another tupperware with thinly sliced peppers, cucumbers, pickled radish, avocado, imitation crab or slivers of ham or even hot dogs. If you're lazy, just get a bunch of veggies from the salad bar at the supermarket. Smoked salmon would be good too! Once you're at the picnic, assemble! Bring a few packets of soy sauce.<br /> - I really love crisp romaine salads with slivers of Parrano cheese, apples, walnuts, and croutons in a mustardy vinaigrette. Just bring the lettuce in a big tupperware and add everything else once you get there and shake it up. Its fantastic with cold roast chicken. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-are-your-favorite-picnicportable-foods#post-2147824 Fri, 17 Apr 2015 13:54:56 +0000 simplyfelicity 2147824@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Chicken salad!

Some of the stuff we like to pack:</p> <p>Ingredients for open faced sandwiches<br /> Bagels with spread, smoked salmon, red onion, and micro greens (LO and I don't care for capers)<br /> Chopped celery salad with green onions, golden raisins, sunflower seeds and miso dressing<br /> Cold soba noodle salad<br /> Sliced veggies and hummus (I saw beet hummus at TJ's last week, and plan to pick some up) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-are-your-favorite-picnicportable-foods#post-2147781 Fri, 17 Apr 2015 13:34:35 +0000 youboots 2147781@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm going to be taking some food to a winery this weekend and need some new ideas. Also spring is here and we have a concert series in town that I pack a picnic dinner for. And we also take easy portable food on the boat. What are your favorite foods to make to take on the go? Bonus points for gluten free.</p> <p>I usually bring/make the same few things and would love some new ideas...<br /> Cheese, crackers, meat<br /> Caprese salad<br /> Bbqed and chilled sasuage cut up with mustard.<br /> Smoked onion dip<br /> Antipasti salad: chopped cheese, salami, artichoke hearts, olives etc dressed with olive oil. </p>
