Summer picnics are a lot of fun - but they're also prone to finicky weather, bugs, noise, humidity, and not enough ice, ever. I wanted to combine a way to celebrate our country, summers, and birthdays all together - but indoors. After all, a hurricane was coming and I happen to love air conditioning and fully functional bathrooms.
I wanted an easy picky menu - something that guests could enjoy eating off a plate, but with one utensil. It had to be something they could pick up and eat over and over, going back for seconds or thirds as desired. Dishes should be happy at room temperature and made in advance. The ingredients also needed to be affordable - we were expecting 20-30 people over several hours!!
Here's what we served:
Pulled Pork Tacos (Pork Tinga)
Meatballs
Herbed Ricotta Pasta Salad
Green Bean Almondine with Sesame Ginger Dressing
California Hummus
Bruschetta
Salsa and Chips
Homemade Ginger Ale
Cold Chai
