Because everything tastes good eaten on a blanket!

I have decided to declare picnic month here on SHE EATS: a) because we had some sunny days recently and so that means summer could finish any time soon and b) because it’s always the right time to enjoy posh nibbles with friends.

So this month you can expect a picnic themed Desert Island Dish linky to share your recipes, some picnic friendly recipes and a look at some top picnic spots around the north west. But first, how about a little picnic giveaway?

Giveaway: picnic treats

I’ve a bundle of treats for one lucky reader, that should help your picnic go swimmingly.

Family owned Opies have been producing food since 1880 and will be a familiar name for many. In your picnic pack you will find:

• Pickled gherkins
• Cocktail onions (you know, the tiny ones that are addictive!)
• Capers (ideal for giving crunch and tang to your salads)
• Lemon slices (for the G&T!)

We also have a bottle of Lingham’s famous Chilli Sauce – created during the British Colonial era, it was made sweet and spicy to appeal to the British palette. Today, it is loved by chefs and home cooks for it’s versatility as a dipping sauce and marinade.
