Working on the food for GG's party Saturday night. I'm thinking 30 people, there may be more. Perhaps half are vegetarians, the others are devoted carnivores. Hunters+gatherers=a hard menu to plan.
This is what I've got so far:
Marinated, grilled flank steak
Grilled German sausages.
Smoked salmon ( smoked by the Hai, GG's father)
German potato salad
French lentil and rice salad with feta cheese.
Pasta salad with artichokes, cherry tomatoes, mozzarella cheese, toasted pine nuts, red onion and herbs/ or Dan Dan Noodles ( with scallions, soy sauce, peanut butter, chili paste and toasted peanuts)?
Assorted cheeses and breads
A BIG green salad
Thoughts? Prayers? Suggestions?
The good news: we're having the party at a friend's house so no one need worry about that kitchen ceiling that still needs to be plastered, the lawn that is knee deep in clover or the back deck that looks like it has escaped being painted AGAIN this spring. When it's us vs the grapevine, we always lose!
Audience participation please. Rate menu please: Yum, pretty tasty or no thanks not enough options.
P.S. I'm trying to get Marie from 66 square feet to come down for the party. Throw in a yes for that too will you?
