What are your favourite EASY picnic spreads for just you and few loved ones for company?

Meaning portable meals without too much effort. (Maybe some of us have different definitions of "effort". cool

Since we bike, the meal must be light/not too bulky/fragile to carry. (though we have carried gourmet cakes on bike several time a year from bakery to home.) And we have many scenic places that we can bike over and sit down to eat. No, we seldom bring a blanket to sit on.

Tonight on a mildly hot summer evening (approx. 82 degrees F), we'll be heading out in less than 1 hr. Supper is: some couscous cooked with sundried tomatoes, onion, garlic, fresh thyme, basil and chopped red pepper. (Easy to make and keeps warm for 1-2 hrs. after cooking. No need to worry about samonella,etc.) Some fresh cherries on the side afterwards.

We haven't got any fruit juice on hand right now. So it'll be water from our water bottles.

Love to hear about your edible spreads or is it modest like ours? We're pretty casual.
