Best Foods to bring during Summer Beach Vacation

/ / General Food Topics

Summer introduces people to go outside and be with the environment. So if we want to go to park and have a picnic or dinner, we have no problem and the preparation was easy. However, if we choose to go on a picnic and date in a beach then that is a new preparation. Factors are needed to be identified before we tend to prepare our food in a picnic basket.

First factor is the sand where we need many precautions and must plan ahead before we prepare our food. But even though we make many planning strategies, the sand will always ruin our preparations. The presence of sand can cause for a lot of food waste when we accidentally dropped our food or kicked the sand inside the picnic basket. Addition to this is the wind because the beach tends to be always breezy and humid. This means that the air and the salty sand will mixed and swirl around us and our food especially when the prepared food are oily or greasy.

Here is the list of possible food and things that could be brought in a beach picnic area.

  • Cookies
  • Fried foods such as chicken, lumpiang shanghai, pork meat, French fries, hash brown and lechon kawali
  • Merienda food such as popcorn, butong pakwan (watermelon seed), and buto ng kalabasa (roasted squash seed)
  • Sandwiches like hamburger, ham and cheese sandwich and hotdog sandwich
  • Wraps such as lettuce wrap, cheese and salami or tacos
  • Whole fruits and tropical fruit
  • Pasta salads and pizzas
  • For those who would like to go for rice then it is most advisable to eat fried rice or java rice because it stays longer even it is too hot in beaches.
  • Cookies, chips, crackers and nuts
  • All of these gets along with fruit juices (carbonated drinks is not advisable especially for kids)

So these suggestions are the inspiring food that could be brought and prepared for our summer beach activities. We must enjoy the ambiance of beaches as well as the food to have an awesome summer vacation this year. Enjoy!
