Picnic ideas - Mackerel pâté

With four young children we always include a few tubs of dips and dunkers - they're easy, nourishing and travel well. Mix flaked smoked mackerel, crème fraîche, lemon juice and a good dash of horseradish. Or we do chickpea purée: whizz a tin of chick peas with 4 tbs natural yoghurt, lemon juice and chopped fresh mint. Then pack a mixture of raw vegetable sticks, cooked shelled prawns tossed in olive oil and some grissini.
