This warm weather season calls for outdoor adventures. And what better way to soak up the sun than with a picnic? No summer picnic is complete without a basket packed with nutritious snacks and on-the-go meals to keep you cool and full.
So, stock up on high-quality goods from your conventional and organic grocery store delivery service, grab a few blankets, pack your reusable utensil kit, and get ready to embrace picnic season. Here’s how to tap into the summer season's most flavorful produce and staples for your next al fresco gathering.
Snacks
Busy summer days call for simple yet nutritious snacks. When the snack attack hits, explore unique snack options from your favorite grocery delivery services. Choose hidden protein gems like crispy salmon tails to add to sushi bites, or canned chickpeas that can be roasted and added to your trail mix for an extra protein boost.
Sandwiches
Alongside classic PB&J (or nut butter) sandwiches, consider a veggie-packed pairing perfect for summer: a cool and refreshing cucumber sandwich with a bold, bright green dressing. Loaded with good-for-you veggies like butter lettuce, cucumbers, and Vidalia onions, this no-cook sando is perfect to serve on its own or with your choice of protein.
Salads
Cold, crunchy, and crisp, nothing beats a fresh summer salad that cools you down with its mouthwatering flavor. With heirloom tomatoes in full swing this summer, whip up a tomato-watermelon salad with a bold vinaigrette and bid adieu to high temperatures and hangryness. Even if it’s “ugly produce,” it’ll still taste great in this refreshing salad.
Sweet Treats
Ice pops aren’t just for the kiddos! Keep cool with homemade ice pops made from sweet seasonal fruits like strawberries and blueberries or stone fruits like peaches and apricots. Simply freeze overnight and get ready to feel like a kid again.
Sips
Summer outings are the perfect time to try your hand at the DIY drinks you’ve seen all over your social media feed. Give the classic fair-style lemonade a summer twist with a melon agua fresca boosted with chia seeds for fiber and protein.
Picnics are a perfect reason to get outside this summer. With a little prep and help from a fresh produce delivery service, you can enjoy these tasty and nutritious picnic food ideas for your next warm weather gathering.
