N3ir; , - L - BKR5? 3SMr7 ; . ntts' rrtrst -s I An outdoor setting coils for easily prepared favorites to go along with your grilled specialties. mm grilled meals provide an added thrill when cooked away from home in a shady forest nook, at the beach, or at a roadside park. Accent is on fun because even on-the-go cooking over the coals requires a minimum of preplanning and preparation, so any number can enjoy an outing even for a spur-of-the-moment party. Meats are the focal point for outdoor dining, and a hearty potato accompaniment, also grilled, means good eating. Fresh garden vegetables can be grilled in aluminum foil or toted iced as relishes. Toasty-hot breads, convenience desserts, and hot or chilled beverages complete the meal. The many attractive paper products now available plastic coated and heavy-duty plates, colorful cups, serving con tainers, and napkins mean less work and more fun from the first inspiration to the last glowing coal.
