Labor Day Picnic in Piedmont Park



As I mentioned last week, there was an ‘Eat In’ yesterday in Piedmont Park organized by Slow Food Atlanta. The purpose of the picnic, which happened at 306 locations nationwide in all 50 states, was to advocate for better, healthier food in schools.

What a way to spend a beautiful Labor Day! We packed our gluten-free picnic and brought some friends to share the meal and support a good cause.

Here’s what we brought for our picnic:

Homemade Chicken Salad (see recipe below)

Food Should Taste Good Sweet Potato Chips (This brand is a recent discovery and all of their flavors are great. I personally love sweet potato and cinnamon.)



Cape Cod Potato Chips: David's addition to the picnic, but also GF

Betty Crocker's Gluten Free Chocolate Chip Cookies: This was my first time making her GF cookies and while they are a little crumbly, they're very tasty and easy to make.

Freshly baked bread made with Pamela's Bread Mix: like any bread mix, this bread takes time to make but I find it tastes more like 'real' bread than any of the frozen breads I've purchased.

Fresh tomatoes to go on our sandwiches

Strawberries and apples

It was a feast!
