Welcome the New Boss: Wine Tasting & Pavillion Picnic

[LoriLions]

I am hosting a wine tasting event at a local winery with a nice pavillion for the wife of my new boss. The intent is to welcome her to the company. The event includes free wine tasting and we can bring food in a pavillion after the wine tasting and buy bottles of wine to enjoy with the food. My question is, what would you bring? The pavillion does not have electrical outlets, no stove, no grill, no refrigerator but I can bring ice chests. The fruit salad and pasta salad with chicken has been claimed. I would love any suggestion including non-PC recipes that are always a winner at any function. I do not expect to serve a complete mea I just want to make the best of the wine tasting...let me know what you think. Thanks!

I'd do some tapenades you can make in the MFP and then keep in the cool and serve tray (if you have it)...or another way to keep them cooled. Grill some pita/flat breads or little baguette pieces to serve the tapenade on! Would be a nice pairing with wine.

Thanks for the advice. I have the tray but which tapenade recipe is your favorite?
