Fallbrook Garden Club picnics promote companionship

FALLBROOK – The Fallbrook Garden Club held its annual summer picnic, Aug. 3, at Live Oak Park. While there wasn’t a great turnout, those members who came had a great time enjoying the food and companionship.

Since it was a very hot day, the potluck menu consisted mainly of pasta salads, macaroni salad, gelatin salad, assorted green salads, deviled eggs, chips and salsa, finger sandwiches and tomato tart. Water and soft beverages were provided by the club.

Below is a recipe for the tomato tart which was made by Hanh DeMore and enjoyed by everyone at the picnic.
