I am a word with rhyming parts,
Each part a word if spoken aloud.
The first is to bully
The last is to steal
And spoken together, a pleasant meal.
What am I?

You are a
picnic
I am a word with rhyming parts. Each part a word if spoken aloud.
'pic' and 'nic' are not words, but sound like:
The first is to bully
pick, as in 'to pick on'
The last is to steal
nick, as in 'to nick something'
And spoken together, a pleasant meal.
A picnic is a type of (often pleasant) meal!
Title: This Riddle Should Be Easy
Idiomatically, something that is 'no picnic' is not easy. So, it follows that a picnic should be quite easy.

1Very nice title! That was quite a stealth clue. – Phylyp May 24 '18 at 19:57

1I almost changed that title, too, because we don't want people to put evaluations of difficulty into their titles. Glad I didn't :) – Rubio May 25 '18 at 18:53

@Rubio I was hopeful that mods would say, “that title is so bad, it must be intentional.” – kedarguru May 26 '18 at 21:36

1@kedarguru With some of the stuff we see, we learn with depressing speed that such faith is all too often misplaced :) – Rubio May 26 '18 at 21:41
