Picnic Recipes (Most Popular)

Tuna salad made by my mother-in-law for a family picnic.

This is an extremely low-fat, low-cal lunch. I like to eat it with whole-wheat crackers and reduced-fat cheese to make a delicious, healthy, balanced meal.

Makes 4 servings

My husband loves banana cream pie so I make it without the crust and he still loves it. If making it for guests or an event I use a frozen crust but just don't eat it. This does not last long here...and there is only 2 of us

My low carb BBQ sauce can be adjusted for sweetness (splenda) and tang vinegar, and thickness (cooking time with no lid to retain moisture)

These crispy mushroom, "chips", make a great topping for soups, casseroles, salads, and snacks.
Roast them till they are crispy.
They will taste and crunch like bacon.

I like to serve this over sunflower cracked wheat toast , with some grated cheese , and a little plain greek yogurt on top .

Healthy easy summer drink

These are very-easy-to-make muffins with a slight banana aroma and mouth full of chocolate!
The original recipe came from Food&Wine magazine. I have reduced the amount of sugar significantly as the ripen banana is usually very sweet. And I made three times less muffins than the original recipe called.

Fluffy and yummy

Dark chocolate Lindt Easter Rabbits go on sale and call my name. I would eat the ears first, then the whole body. This way I have a "track trash snack" when I go to my NASCAR race in the spring!

Looking for something low carb and low calorie, yet filling, to help slim down? This great summer salad is refreshing and packed full of great nutritional food items.

My kids beg for this great pasta salad and I normally take this to summer pot-lucks. It's always a huge hit and it's so easy to make that I can wait until the last minute. I created this recipe from some ingredients I had on hand one day when I realized I didn’t have anything planned for dinner and it was too hot out to use the stove or oven for very long. We didn’t have any bread for sandwiches (a favorite in our house in the summer) and I didn’t want to run to the store. If you follow this recipe exactly, you will have a very large bowl that will easily feed 10 or more people for dinner. It’s a colorful dish that can be used as a side or a meal by itself. I hope you enjoy this dish as much as my family and friends do.

This salad is so savory and fresh, makes a great entrance or side dish, and no chilean celebration could be complete without it.

This is good. Adapted from a recipe found on epiurious.com.
