15 picnic favorites to whip up now




With the summer heatwave we’ve been having this week, I haven’t been cooking much, since I’m just craving mostly cold things right now, like salads, fruit and charcuterie. So, in my search for yummy summertime meals, I came across Country Living’s list of 98 Summer Picnic Food Ideas 

Whether you’re laying out your favorite picnic blanket or not, these foods sound pretty amazing. I’ve chosen 15 of their easy recipes to showcase today that are variations of meals I already love to make. 

Our favorite alfresco spot at dinnertime is our backyard table. We love to sit on the picnic benches and enjoy a lovely meal under the shade of our olive tree.  

My top pick for dinner tonight would be the Tossed Salad with Green Goddess dressing. Have you ever made this salad dressing before? It’s such a tasty and healthy choice made with avocado and lots of fresh herbs. I think I'll add some shredded rotisserie chicken for a little protein. Super yum!! 


Here's a look at my favorites...
