As summer heat begins to fade, the desire to enjoy a picnic in the great outdoors grows. Here is a sandwich that is hearty, healthy and filling and is made with whole grain bread, cheese and vegetables. I serve it with no-bake Berry Delight and will publish the recipe soon.
Pack a picnic basket with a quilt, cloth napkins, a bunch of sunflowers and a hearty, yet healthy meal and enjoy the lingering beauty of the season and if you are lucky, a little night music.
