Help!

Sister bridal shower!

I have 3 types of mini croissant sandwich I am serving.

Chicken salad with grapes, ham and cheese, and cucumber veggie.

Also serving hummus and pita bread with veggies, skewers of grape tomatoes and mozzarella balls with a basil leaf, possible potato salad, 7 layer salad, pasta salad, cheese & cracker tray and fruit tray.

40 people all adult women, except for 3 children.

How many of each kind will I need. I think the Chicken salad will be most popular. First thought was 80 total, 30 Chicken salad, 25 ham and cheese, 25 veggie.

Thank you,
Alex

You must be anxious, you posted 3 times, that's a record.
You are spot on for the amounts on sandwiches, 80 is right, you want 40 chicken, 25 ham, 15 veggie. Maybe 3 PBJ for the kids?

The potato salad is not needed with the pasta salad and other items, since it is women and not teens or men.
