Celebrate National Eat Outside Day With a Backpack Full of Tillamook!
 

Eat Outside Day

It seems every day is a reason to celebrate, but today serves up one of my favorite reasons: eating outside!

Here are a couple ways to celebrate National Eat Outside Day:

Camping or Hiking: Although backpacks are normally stuffed with granola bars and gorp, take a little cheese along for a durable snack with lots of protein and calcium.
- How one fan does it
- Making grilled cheese over a campfire
- One of my favorite websites for backcountry recipes: One Pan Wonders (Smoked Oyster Omelette when camping? With Tillamook Smoked Cheddar! Are you kidding me? YUM!)

Picnic: Grab a blanket, a Baby Loaf, and find a nice patch of grass to spread out on…
- Stash some handy-dandy Tilla-moos in your picnic basket
- Try this BLAT grilled cheese that will stay delicious during your journey to find the perfect picnic spot
- Pick up some goodies from the Cheese Factory for a picnic on an Oregon coast

Al fresco: Things taste even more delicious when dining just outside of your favorite restaurant. Here’s few of our favorites that include an al fresco option:
- The American Grilled Cheese Kitchen, San Francisco
- Caffe Niche with Tillamook Sandwich Week, Salt Lake City
- The Foundry with Tillamook Grilled Cheese Week, Los Angeles

Food Cart: One of the best things about eating at a food cart? Getting to eat delicious treats outside — and you often have different outdoor scenery depending on the day! Some of our fav food carts:
- The Grilled Cheese Truck, Los Angeles (find out their current location on Twitter @grlldcheesetruk)
- Savor Soup House – Featured Tillamook Restaurant of the Month, Portland, Oregon
- Grilled Cheese Grill – Featured Tillamook Restaurant of the Month, Portland, Oregon

BBQ: In these final days of summer grillin’, pay homage to those smokin’ flames with these BBQ ideas:
- Cheese + Burger + [insert delicious toppings] =fabulous grilling recipes
- Grill a pizza. Yeah, you heard me.
- Stuffed Burgers filled with CHEESE!

Pick your fav and get on out there!

Tomorrow is National Picnic Day!
 

 

There are so many national holidays that it’s hard to keep track of them all. National Picnic Day, however, comes at just the right time. The sun is sneaking through the clouds and flowers and vegetables are coming out (my peas have sprouted!). There’s no better time to have a picnic! My favorite picnic food is a classic turkey sandwich with an iced tea. And I never forget Tilla-Moos! These little guys are just the right size for any picnic basket.

What’s your favorite picnic food?
