Tomorrow is my boyfriend's birthday and I am planning to have a picnic with some friends of ours at a nice park. I need help with a menu though...was thinking along the lines of chips, salsa, guacamole, and sandwiches, but what kind of sandwiches.....anybody got a stellar chicken salad? Also what for dessert? Help!

I have the BEST Chicken Salad recipie..but i wouldnt make sandwiches out of it. Its better served cold..on a plate..with sliced tomatoes..also cold.
Why not go with the classics..cold fried chicken..potato salad...baked beans...rolls...and a nice pie for dessert??
also something cold to drink
wine..or sangria..

Ham and cheese is always a great sandwich. Cookies or brownies pack well for picnic desserts.
