Directions

Build a Sub

  1. Place buns or wraps and ingredients on each plate, tray or table. Have each family member make their own sub, wrap, or picnic plate the way they like it. If you make extra, everyone can pack a picnic lunch in a sealed container for the next day!

Ranch Dressing
  1. Hand-whisk all ingredients together in a bowl. For an easy Caesar-like dressing, add parmesan cheese.
