It’s the perfect time of year to invite friends and family to have an outdoor picnic near your Canyon Park Apartments. Assign dishes to everyone who is coming and have a fun afternoon. We have some delicious recipes and outdoor games for you to make this picnic just right.
Recipes
This recipe is a delicious Italian sub that is perfect for a sunny day in Puyallup, WA. This recipe comes from The Crepes of Wrath. You’ll need a large loaf of ciabatta bread, fresh pesto, sliced sweet soppressata (an Italian dry salami), prosciutto (an Italian dry-cured ham), provolone cheese, mozzarella cheese, and basil leaves.
This salad is easy and so delicious. It comes from The Roasted Root. You’ll need an apple, an orange, 2 kiwis, 1 banana, 1 cup of blueberries, 1 cup of red grapes. For the dressing, you’ll need canned coconut milk, Greek yogurt, basil leaves, 1 lime, and honey. Make the Lime Coconut Basil dressing and mix in with the chopped fruit. This salad is a great alternative to a traditional fruit bowl.
Outdoor Games
This outdoor game is becoming more and more popular and the perfect game for an outdoor picnic. You can purchase Giant Jenga online or make an even more giant version yourself. We like the idea of an extra giant set. To make this yourself, you’ll need 54 feet of 2x4, measuring tape, a pencil, a chop saw, a sanding block, 100 or 120 grit sandpaper, a damp cloth, and stain of your choice. This game will create a lot of fun for you and your friends.
Corn hole is a great outdoor game that is perfect for all ages. You can make your own set or purchase one online if you don’t have one. To make corn hole boards you’ll need a jigsaw, measuring tape, compass, plywood of different sizes, and a few other items. Visit the DIY Network to find out how to make these and everything else that you’ll need.
