waxonwaxoff   13 #1 Posted August 8, 2008 what do you put in your picnic basket? Do you do the same old cheese sandwiches a kit kat and a drink or do you have a hamper of luxuries (sp)?  In our picnic basket we have varying things -  sandwiches tortilla wraps (ham, chicken, cheese etc) german potato salad german noodle salad chicken legs scnitzels frikadelen pasta salads pork pies sausage rolls Homemade pies or pasties crisps  basically depends on my enthusiasm that day.   So whats in your hamper I need new ideas.

LitleMermaid   10 #4 Posted August 13, 2008 basically depends on my enthusiasm that day.  Me too:hihi:  If it's just me and OH, we'l take things like cucumber sticks, crisps, and some kind of dip, hummous or similar.  Nice rolls and a couple of different types of cheese, and quorn ham slices to make up our own sandwiches when we get there.  Last time we had a pot of cream and a punnet of strawberries, which was yummy.  Oooh and veggie scotch eggs, which I have a passion for! The tortilla wraps are a great idea:thumbsup: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
taxman   12 #5 Posted August 13, 2008 The best picnic I ever had was an impromptu affair so we had no time to prepare...we got a ready roasted chicken and some couscous with veg from the CO-OP plus some pomegranite juice. Then we ate it with our fingers, and drank the juice (sometimes passing it between our mouths)  It felt natural and vibrant and exciting, the picnic wasn't bad either Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
