So this week is, was, has been National Picnic Week. There’s a day, a week, a month for everything now, did you know there is a National Rebecca Day too and it’s on the 4th of July – true story that so if you are Rebecca then you are welcome my darling. I plan to go to aqua, do a bit of social media editing and probably bake myself something nice on that day to celebrate.
Oh Rebecca you’ve gone off on one again…
That’s right this was a post about National Picnic Week or #nationalpicnicweek (let’s get the hashtag in there for optimal SEO shall we – blogger joke)
I didn’t see the point of baking like crazy for this post as I’ve done all the hard work already so here are a few of my favourite recipes that would work brilliantly for a pimped up gluten free picnic.

Savoury Gluten Free Picnic Recipes
So I know I keep going on about it on social media (if you don’t know what I’m talking about then you clearly don’t follow me on Twitter and if not why not! puts hands on hips and taps foot accusingly) BUT – these two sausage roll recipes are amazingly awesome baked and cooled for picnics. None of your iddy-biddy sausage rolls for me, oh no. I want a big slice please and to wash it down with a white pino too.

Sausage Plait – perfect for National Picnic Week
Next up you have a recipe that I developed whilst I lay in bed one night and couldn’t sleep, this used to happen a lot when I had more time on my hands but times were equally as stressful. The concept is utterly bonkers but they honestly work and mean that I can still enjoy a timeless classic with my free from picnic.
Egg Free Scotch Eggs
Gluten Free Picnic Bakes
We all know I like a cake, or two, or three – oh who am I kidding I LOVE ALL THE CAKES! Here’s a few that travel well in Tupperware and behave themselves when cutting on an uneven surface. Plus need to be eaten minus the posh cake fork and just shoved into your mouth before the wasps get wind of it! See, I’ve thought of everything for you!
