Picnic Packing - Somethings fun and somethings sinful

I'm sure there are several of you who are suckers for summer picnics. Here are some tips for making food fun and not necessarily unhealthy.

My basket generally consists of a bottle or two of favorite wines and low fat spreads instead of cheese. For crunchiness- baked vegetable crackers; cut fruits, vegetables with a low-fat dip; whole grain bread with homemade veggie burgers, mango salsa and tortilla chips. I would also pack dark chocolate for dessert.

If you want to add Indian snacks and foods, it's best to go with parathas and raita. Keep it simple and healthy. Possibly one Indian snack. I cannot pick one over the other since each one has its own drawback when it comes to salt or fat.
