With the summer holidays fast approaching, my mind is turning to easy picnic dishes that travel well or that will keep for the next day should the rain clouds burst on the day we planned to be out. 

The kids may be happy with a constant supply of cheese or ham sandwiches but my belly is far happier with a tasty lunch inside it!

This smoked mackerel rice salad is one of my go tos and it could be one of yours too.
