I planned a birthday party for my 6 yr old at a local park on Sunday from 1:30 till whenever - probably 4 or 5 depending on weather- no elecricity, will be using the fire site for the two warm foods and then ice chests for everything else.. I just found this site and am now afraid I do not have enough... the guest list is growing and I have more than expected attending. i have about 27 kids under the age of 13 (most are 4-6 range)and 50 guests age 13 and up. Most adult guests are in the 30 range, half men and women. This is my menu - but I am afraind I need to rethink it now!
My mother in law is bringing:
I am having: macaroni salad (2 boxes dry macaroni) 5 lbs hot dogs - about 40 hot dogs
Sauage and peppers - 6 dozen rolls for sausage and peppers
1/2 sheet cake was thinking about adding a 3 bean salad or broccoli salad Do you think I need more hot dogs and sausage? or I was going to but 10 lbs raw chicken breats and make chicken salad rolls... I am not sure!!! Thanks for all that you do for others!!! |

You are right to be concerned. Basically, I would double everything you are providing, except just 1 1/2 times the rolls and hot dogs, including the cake but not the other desserts. If you add the 3 bean or broccoli salad, 1 1/2 to 2 gallons. |
