Excellent menu that will take you to the beach
The ideal beach menu is fresh and easy to eat, yet it doesn’t have to be dull. This time, the focus is on simple, crowd-pleasing dishes that stay light and convenient for a sunny day by the shore.
Tuna bean salad is the most refreshing way to eat vegetables in summer
This pasta salad is a staple of warm-weather meals. For the beach, select colorful bow-tie pasta, a kid-friendly shape that also works well for adults. Cook the pasta according to the package directions, then rinse with cold water. In a large bowl, combine canned tuna, cooked corn, chopped boiled eggs, and small sliced crab sticks.
When dressing, skip mayonnaise and heavy sauces to prevent heat-related spoilage. For the beach, a light vinaigrette based on extra virgin olive oil and Modena balsamic vinegar is ideal. This recipe is perfect for eating directly from a container while standing on the towel.
The omelette is a classic dish every Sunday eater should keep in the fridge. Today, a small twist is added to the traditional recipe. After preparing the potato omelette, cut it in half and top each half with a slice of cooked ham and cottage cheese.
Place the other half of the tortilla back on top and press firmly to make it compact. This dish travels well and is easy to eat anywhere during beach days.

Watermelon is a quintessential summer fruit. Pieces of ripe watermelon, skinless and seedless, are easy to enjoy as a beach dessert. Today’s feature is a refreshing watermelon mojito that highlights the fruit’s juicy sweetness.
To mix, blend three slices of seedless watermelon with lemon juice, three fresh mint leaves, three tablespoons of brown sugar, a splash of soda, and crushed ice. Blend well and reserve some of the mixture for the younger guests. For adults, add a small splash of white rum and blend again. Add more ice and serve in a glass bottle.
