11/07/11 		I need to plan for an elementary dinner dance. Would like to have tossed salad, dressings, bread, butter, chicken nuggets, baked ziti, sliced ham, hot dogs, roasted potatoes and fruit salad. How many trays of ziti, salad and fruit salad and how many slice of ham per guest?

For the trays of ziti, salad and fruit salad, use the planning tables and pages and do for 150. I always suggest fruit trays instead of salads, they keep better, look better, and any leftovers are more usable.
