Looks like fun, and that is way too many meatballs!
quacamole, roasted shrimp cocktail, at least 1 pound per 5- don't put it all out at once, some folks are a little greedy...
antipasto platter (how many lbs?)see the antipasto meat platter or the antipasto veggie platter on this site,
pigs in blanket 2 per
meatball bar of 4 varieties, Italian, 1 pound per 5; Swedish, 1 pound per 6-8 depends on the region of the country; Asian, 1 pound per 10; middle eastern, 1 pound per 10
wings, 2 salads, Do 2 for 50 (1/2 100) from the site or the plan for 100 page. With this heavy menu, you might consider a fruit tray for one, see the fruit tray page? Mac and cheese 5 pounds dry pasta, 1 quart sauce per pound, 1/2 to 1 pound cheese per pound. Good recipes this site. This is a lot of food as is, you may have some left (ages and sexes of guests are not noted.) Still you won't run out. If this saves you time, trouble, or money, please make a nice donation to support this site! Thanks. |
