Sandwich Tray with Pepper Jack Cheese, Longhorn Cheese, American Cheese, Bologna, Ham, and Turkey
You need 2 ounces of cheese per person, 1/4 pepper jack, and split the other 2- but I would do Swiss or Jack instead of the American. 3 ounces of meat per person
Sloppy Joes- Do about 25 pounds of hamburger.
BBQ Ham- 1 pound per 5

Bread- 1 roll and 2 ounces bread, some wheat or rye, per person. You will have some left.

Sandwich condiments/fixings- see sandwich page

Rigatoni-20 pounds dry

Potato Salad-80 pounds potatoes
Macaroni Salad
Pasta Salad- since you also have rigatoni, skip one of the pasta salads! 10-12 pounds dry for the other

Fruit Salad- do trays, prettier,easier, keep better and the leftovers are more useful. See fruit tray page.

See veggie tray page, don't forget Ranch or other dip- Veggie Tray with Cukes, Carrots, Broc, Cauli, and Celery
