July is National Picnic Month! Celebrate with this roundup of 35 Healthy Picnic Recipes for Summer. All the sides, mains, and desserts you could need to have the ultimate picnic lunch!
I can’t believe the Fourth is already over and that we are on our way into the second month of summer! As I said last week, this season is FLYING.
As of tomorrow, I have officially been in my new place for 1 whole week. Can’t believe THAT either. But I am loving it and it’s SO nice having more space. Ella likes it too.
Another plus about the new place? I am in my old neighborhood again. It’s called the Elmwood Village here in Buffalo…the good ol’ 14222. Full of all the best shops, eateries, and places to walk/run/bike. I am also close to the area I grew up in which has an amazing parkway system.
The parkways are home to weekly concerts, festivals, post-race parties, and my beloved Saturday farmer’s market. They’re also great for just hanging out and relaxing in. I especially love having picnics with friends there!
Speaking of picnics, did you know July is NATIONAL PICNIC MONTH!? I personally LOVE eating outside, so National Picnic Month is something I will definitely be celebrating. 😉
You should make it a goal for this month to plan a picnic with friends or family. They are so fun and great way to enjoy the nice (but fleeting) warm weather and great outdoors. Luckily, today I am sharing a 35 Healthy Picnic Recipes for Summer from your favorite food bloggers. You’ll be all set for planning your next picnic excursion!
Grab a blanket and a basket and get to picnicking this month!
