spring holidays

Bonnie, your burritio rolls sound delicious.

I make a veggie sandwich for picnics that everyone seems to like.

 

 

Picnic Boule

 

Get a boule (round loaf) of bread you like (I usually get whole wheat

or sourdough, depending what's available if I haven't had time to make

one). Cut it in half. Rip out some of the insides, but make sure not

to pull a hole through to the crust. Save those bits for something else.

 

Spread goat cheese or cream cheese on the bread halves (helps seal so

it doesn't get soggy from the veggies). Spread your choice of

tapenade (olive paste) or pesto. Top with grilled/roasted veggies -

tomato, red bell pepper, summer squashes, asparagus. Close up the

sandwich. Cut it into wedges, keeping it together, and wrap tightly

in foil. You may put it on the grill for a bit to warm up if it's

that kind of picnic, or just eat cold.

Hi Bonnie:

 

Last Summer I went home for a visit and my family had there family picnic while

I was there. Hadn't to one in 15 years since I moved away.

 

Any way I made a Tomato Mozzarella salad that everyone liked.

 

No real recipe, it was tomatoes, mozzarella cheese, cucumbers, kosher salt, some

balsamic vinegar, basil oil. Don't really remember everything I put on it.. I

just went thru my parents cabinets and found all sorts of things so I made a

mixture and then let it chill over night.

spring holidays

 

 

Do you celebrate any special holidays this spring?

If so, are there any special foods or traditional recipes

you prepare or eat during your celebrations?

 

 

Wesak is the full moon in Taurus. We have done pot-luck but no particular

specialty.

 

I do try to present a new recipe to share for our yearly " Memorial " picnic 4th

Sunday in April which is a

family reunion type gathering. I try to bring something different every year and

something that will

appeal to the non-vegetarians.

 

Last year it was a mixture in rolled burritos and they all disappeared. A

combination of sauted

onions and some parsley in olive oil. Mix with diced green & black olives and

feta cheese.

Roll up in burritos and melt. The burritos are homemade - 1/2 white and 1/2

wheat flour with

enough olive oil so that they are soft. I cut burritos into 3rds, so they were

eaiser to eat.

 

Does anyone have any picnic recipes to share? I would love that!

Those burritos sound wonderful. Does this dish have a

name?

We have loads of tried and true recipes in our files section.

i am certain you will find some great picnic ideas in there

for this year.

From this angle that looks a little bit like food.
