Whip up gourmet sandwiches and a tangy slaw, grab some wine, and make a beeline for the grass! Ambrosia salad and white bread? Not at this easy, elegant picnic. These sandwiches—dolled up with savory surprises—are easy to assemble, the pretty pink slaw takes minutes to make, and the rest is store-bought. Bring a thermos filled with chilled double-strength tea, and buy ice en route to dilute it. And don't forget the chips! Cape Cod potato chips are the best. Throw everything into a big tote, along with cloth napkins and tableware that can be recycled for the next picnic.
