Memorial Day Picnic
Try this menu and tips for a hassel free ,old fashioned picnic! Don't forget to pack the volley ball equipment!

Spinach Dip in sourdough bread rounds (use the bread chunks from the chicken bowls to serve with the spinach dip)

Chex Party Mix

Oven fried chicken For containers that are edible, slice tops off of large sourdough rounds. Reserve top. Hollow out the rounds and fill with the oven fried chicken. Place the lids back on and wrap the breads in heavy duty foil. Then wrap in several layers of newspaper. This will keep the chicken warm up to two hours.

Green Salad. Pack in gallon ziplock bags. When ready to serve, add dressing, close and shake up. Open the bags and roll the tops back so guests can help themselves. This method works for the bean and macaroni salads as well. The bags take up less room in the ice chests and afterwards can be thrown away.

Three Bean Salad

Macaroni Salad

Containers of lemonade, frozen. This can act as part of the ice. For a more adult lemonade, pack a ice cold bottle of limoncello!
Southern Sweet Tea

Watermelon

Chocolate Fudge Cookies Pack the cookies in gift boxes lined with wax paper.

Soft Molasses Cookies
