Answer 5

I just answered one about what's good to take to the beach and I'll answer yours the same...
A huge pasta salad-add cubed cheese, pepperoni or salami, olives, artichoke hearts, peppers, broccoli, tomatoes-any kind of veggie you like-all in an italian dressing ( I use good seasons and add balsamic vinegar as well as red wine vinegar). This keeps well without refrigeration and is a real crowd pleaser. If you do add broccoli, cauliflower or carrots just steam them very briefly and cool so they aren't raw tasting.
