Summer is almost here and that means getting out and enjoying the outdoors.   During the summer months we love heading outdoors and having picnics. As soon as school lets out, the kiddos and I love heading on outings and usually packing a picnic to enjoy under a tree on one of our many outings. I love incorporating fresh fruit and other healthy treats such as dairy.

June is National Dairy month and I love incorporating dairy into our outdoor meals. It is  a great healthy treat that the kiddos enjoy and it also happens to taste great.  I usually pack milk, fresh fruit, sandwiches and a few packets of squeezable yogurt in our cooler. I love freezing the treats beforehand and they make the perfect treat on a hot summer day.

I usually like to jazz up my sandwiches and I wanted to share a short video with a simple recipe I found on Safeway.com for a turkey and swiss grilled sandwich. I grilled some sandwiches, bough the most delish potato salad, cut up some watermelon, and some frozen squeezable yogurt and had a fun picnic with the kiddos.

You don’t really need a big special occasion to go outdoors and enjoy a fun meal with the family.  Just keep it simple, incorporate some healthy treats such as dairy and enjoy the beautiful weather and outdoors! #SafewayDairy
