Summer’s almost here! Summer’s almost here!

After over 7 months of cold, dark wintery days here in northeastern Minnesota, I feel a bit like Julie Andrews in the Sound Of Music. I want to dance in circles with the sun shining on my face!

So, we’re taking every opportunity to be out of doors, including during meal time.

Would you like to pack a nourishing picnic — one with healthy, easy, no-fuss foods — and join us outside?

Pack your next picnic with healthy, homemade dishes, not packaged or boxed junk. These easy and nourishing picnic recipes are no-fuss and good for you!

Some of these foods can be thrown into a backpack or basket; others will require an ice chest. All of them are delicious and will allow you to focus your efforts on enjoying your Sound Of Music moment… however that looks!
