Thanks!

Warm Creamy Bacon Dip 3 Gallons
4 Large Cheese Balls 4lbs each Zucchini Crisp 3 per person (600) Cucumber sandwiches 3 per person (600) Potato salad cups (bite size) potato salad served in baked wonton cups 2 per person (400 Pimento Cheese on bite size rolls 2 per person (400)
Sweet Tea 8 Gallons Since it is so many items should I cut back on the amount per person? I know this is around dinner time so the guest will be eating a good bit to fill up. Thank you so much for your help! |

Fried Chicken Bites (60 pounds of chicken strips cut in bite size pieces) (400 bites) Chicken Puffs (Bite Size Pastry filled with chicken salad) 3 per person (600) Meatballs with dipping sauce (BBQ & Marinara) 3 per person (600) 3 quarts sauce per 10 pounds Deli Pin Wheels 3 per person (600) Pimento Cheese on bite size rolls 2 per person (400) All OK Cucumber sandwiches 3 per person (600) Mostly wasted- consider cream cheese and so forth, or egg salad? Veggie Trays 4 16 inch round trays with dip- OK Might add a classic relish tray from the veggie tray page, olive, pickles, etc.
Fruit on Skewers (Grapes (red and green) sliced in half, pineapple tidbits, strawberries quartered and placed on tooth picks 3 per person (600)
Warm Creamy Bacon Dip 3 Gallons-OK
4 Large Cheese Balls 4lbs each- Need 20-24 Zucchini Crisp 3 per person (600) OK Potato salad cups (bite size) potato salad served in baked wonton cups 2 per person (400) These are all OK, and not too much for a dinner time reception
Sweet Tea 8 Gallons If this saves you time, trouble, or money, please make a donation, maybe a dime per guest, to support this site. Thanks. |
