Eat Out. Daily Grill picnic boxes.

With so many outdoors activities going on this summer, the excuse for a picnic is irresistible. But sometimes you don't want to spend the time or money to dish out your own lame PB&Js.

Which is why the Daily Grill's new picnic box offering is such a great idea. The classic dining spot (one of my faves for happy hour, actually) is offering a full-on picnic box for your simple summertime needs. Each box comes with DG's own sourdough bread, homemade garlic potato chips, plastic tablecloth, utensils, and some variety of soup, salad AND dessert. Then for the main course, depending on the prices, you can choose from Santa Fe chicken and Ahi tuna wraps ($22.95/person), charbroiled herb chicken ($27.95/person), Atlantic salmon ($29.95) filet mignon ($38.95/person). Or choose your own entree from the take-out menu and add $5 per person.

Talk about a feast! It's a perfect fancy-type meal for nights out at the Bowl or even at places like Cinespia. And though it may be a bit pricey, everything's inclusive and can be picked up 24 hours after ordering. Just grab a blanket, some shades, and you're ready to go! Happy picnicking!
