I'm carrying on the tradition of my mothers closely guarded potato salad recipe, it's the best in the universe. My relatives tell me to make it or I'll be uninvited to the picnic.
I don't know. Whatcha got?
Deviled eggs. My mother always made them for summer picnics when I was growing up. She had this pretty deviled egg dish too. When I got married she gave me the dish, and I've carried on her tradition. The deviled egg dish was purchased in Newport Beach before I was born, it's over 50 years old.
Potato salad with eggs, pickles, relish, mustard, mayonnaise and a lot of bacon.
Potato salad. A picnic should never leave home without one.

a fresh garden salad.
To me, the best foods for a picnic are some breads, hams, bacon, hot dogs, some fruits and bottled water. Why? Because they are very easy to carry and weigh lightly. :)
