Adventures in Eating Outside: From Picnics to Mountain Food

Head outside with The Shameless Chef this week. Michael’s ideal picnic was easy to transport and easy to clean up but that doesn’t mean the food has to be forgettable. His favorite hamper meals included a combination of chicken breast (broiled, barbecued, or in a sandwich), crudités with a tangy dip, and a hot beverage or a bottle of wine. Plus, Michael always brought colorful cloth napkins. When it comes to barbecuing, Michael preferred to leave it up to the Boy Scouts but he shares a few tips anyway. Lastly, take a trip to the sporting goods store for groceries as Michael talks freeze dried food. Mountain food doesn’t just have to consist of snacks; you may be surprised that meat, vegetables and soups can be made to fit inside your pocket.
