Help me with my menu...

Savvy122 · October 2014

DS's baptism is next weekend and I'm trying to figure out my menu. We are going to have about 20 people for lunch.

So far, we've ordered:
- Mini croissant deli sandwiches
- Fruit tray
- Veggie tray
- Cake

I also plan on making a GF orzo pasta salad.

I feel like I need at least one more side dish but I'm having a hard time figuring out WHAT. Potato salad maybe... but I'm not sure.

Give me all you've got. Bonus points for anything I can prepare ahead of time and just pull out of the fridge when we get back from the church.

Potato salad, green bean salad, tomatoes and mozzarella, I'd also add some cookies or brownies for people (like my oddball dh) who don't like cake. Sounds yummy!

Ooh @Babywear, what's fairy bread?

Quiche?

If you're doing an orzo pasta salad, I would add in another veggie salad - like string bean, cucumber or broccoli salad. All can be prepped ahead! I second @Lilygrace48‌'s suggestion to add cookies or brownies. I love cake, but I always like to have an extra dessert that people can just pick up and nibble on, no plate or fork needed, while they are hanging out.

maybe grilled veggies? Easy to serve cold.
