I am planning a wedding reception for approx. 175 people. I am considering baked ham, salad, green beans, potatoes and bread. How would I fix the potatoes or is there an easier menu to fix? Thank you |

Baked potatoes, scalloped potatoes or cheesy hash browns would all fit this menu and are easy to prepare. Mashed potatoes are also an option. |

We are making the food for our daughters wedding reception, and need to know how to keep bonless ham, hot,..any suggestions? How would I make a broth for it? |

There are several good soup bases that are "ham base". My favorite is made by "better than broth". High end groceries and most restaurant supply stores carry this. |

We are wanting to have pork loin at a wedding reception. What foods would we serve with it? |

Penny, this depends a lot on how many people and what type of kitchen, what range of budget, also whether this is plated or buffet. Write back. |

This will be for approx. 175 people, I would be preparing everything but the pork loin in a normal kitchen and it will be buffet. I really don't have a set budget but would not want anything real expensive. |

Penny, IMO this is not a possible entree choice for a regular kitchen for this many people. One regular kitchen can do a buffet for 60 people with care and good planning, definitely not 175. You have several options;
1) reduce the guest list to 60-80 W |
