In her follow-up to The Camping Cookbook, acclaimed food writer Annie Bell gives one of our favorite pastimes a new lease on life. Whether your picnic is a last-minute, spur-of-the-moment decision, has been planned in advance, is for several people rather than just a family, or needs to be a glamorous event, you’ll find everything you need to know about throwing the perfect picnic in this gorgeous book.

Easy to use and packed with practical advice on everything from essential equipment to cooking on location and eating outside in cold weather, this book is a clear and concise guide. The speedy "Let's Go" suggestions at the start of every chapter should cater to even the most time-pressed picknicker.

With 100 mouthwatering recipes such as Quinoa Tabbouleh, Baked Chicken with Za'atar and Pint Nuts, Fondue Mushroom Burgers, and Tiramisu in a Jar, Annie demonstrates how you can create a scrumptious outdoor eating experience without spending hours of preparation in the kitchen. She includes a handy key to enable you to quickly identify recipes that can be prepared the night before the meal, those that are easy to share and pass around on the day, and show-stoppers fit for a glamorous picnic for a special event.

So let Annie inspire you to pack up your picnic basket and find the ideal location to enjoy a spot of al fresco eating, and make your picnic an occasion to remember.
