Nothing says summer like a day at the beach, but coming up with a menu that’s both portable and delicious can be tricky. Here, we put together some recipes that are fairly easy to prep and perfect for alfresco dining. If you’re bringing the whole family, we recommend throwing in some easy pesto pasta and sliced watermelon for dessert. Pack up a cooler bag and some enamel or disposable serving dishes (we’re currently into these chic compostable ones out of Japan) and you’re set.
