This recipe only takes about 35 minutes to prepare, but it’s really simple, and your preparation brings a beautiful and delicious food everyone will love. Chop up some Iceberg lettuce, dice tomatoes, mince onions, drain a couple cans of corn, cook some hard boiled eggs and peel and dice them, cook and crumble some bacon, and throw everything together for a range of tastes, textures, and temperatures that altogether welcome spring and summer.
Pinwheel rollups are some of our favorite foods for a sunny day: they’re cool and delicious, and you can put any spin on them to fit them to your tastes. This recipe calls for three flour tortillas, salami, pepperoni slices, provolone cheese, and romaine lettuce for the main fillers and cream cheese, bread crumbs, parmesan cheese, and chopped red and banana peppers for the spread. All combined, these rollups will give your meal a spicy-sweet twist.
Pie is a picnic tradition, but if you don’t want to make a whole pie, serve this key lime pie dip instead. This dip is even sweeter and lighter than the original, and — because it’s a dip — serves way more people than your traditional pie. Pair with your favorite wafers, cookies, or crackers for an easy dessert for your picnic.
No matter the weather, there’s nothing more important than staying hydrated. This watermelon lemonade is so delicious and fresh it’s sure to become a picnic staple for your future adventures. It’s a great way to keep you feeling cool and refreshed in any weather, especially if you want an extra addition besides water to add some excitement to your picnic.
