break apart. Skip salty foods, such as
lox, which make people thirsty. Wrap
sandwiches in aluminum foil, which
can double as a plate, making one less
thing to schlep.

For the well-rounded picnic, take
along potato chips, fruit, your favorite
cookies, thirst-quenching drinks and
a garbage bag. Because sandwiches are
an efficient way to feed a crowd out-
doors, the host can relax like a guest.

The ingredients below make one
sandwich. If serving more people, add
the appropriate amount of ingredients.
