bagels with cream cheese, 1/2 large or 1 small bagel per person, 1 ounce cream cheese per person,
donuts, 1 per person
cut up fruit- use the fruit tray page
cheese, 1 ounce per person

For this size group, I would have 2 dozen hard boiled eggs and 50-60 low fat fruit yogurt cups

09/03/13 		I am serving a continental breakfast at camp. We have some leftovers to use up and I need to add to it to have enough to feed 125 (60 adults, 65 girls ages 6-15).

Current Inventory:
58 Bagels
48 "to bake" Cinnamon Rolls
100 banana muffins (mix to make)
2 lb. bag honey nut cheerios
46 individual cereals (non-sweet)

My plan is to add:
60 bananas (cut in half)
30 oranges (cut into 6 pieces)
58 oz. cream cheese
50 individual jelly
100 individual butter
60 fruit yogurt cups
2 dozen hard boiled eggs
60 individual sweet cereal
4 gallons milk
5 (64 oz) OJ
5 (64 oz.) Apple Juice
2 lb coffee

Is this enough food and variety?

Thanks so much!
