my company picnic is this saturday and we've been asked to bring side dishes or desserts. DH and i plan to bring a couple things so that we know for certain there will be things there that are allowed on the atkins plan. i know they will be serving roast pork and i imagine burgers and dogs...

what would you bring for side dishes and or dessert? please keep in mind that it's a 3 hour ride to where we have to go so what ever we take will have to hold up ok in a cooler...

thanks!!

I have heard great things about the broccoli salad recipe on the recipe thread, what about that or some type of cole slaw? Or maybe a bowl of mixed strawberries and blueberries? A low carb cheesecake to go under the berries?

i have been eyeballing that broccoli salad...are there any exact measurements? or is it all just to taste?

we thought about cheesecake "truffles"...he wanted to make mini cheesecakes and drizzle SF chocolate over the tops. i'm just not sure how well they will hold up driving up there and then sitting outside in the sun...maybe we can keep them in a cooler and just tell people what's in there?

great ideas though...keep 'em coming!
