Catering menu help?
Okay I need help deciding what to order and how much. We are planning a party for about 40 people and we want to get Italian food. It would be dinner time not just a snack. What are some dishes besides chicken parmagian we could order? And how many trays?
TIA
btw-we are all big eaters

Re: Catering menu help?
a large tray is about for 20 people
i think a large tray of each thing is sufficient
some will eat one thing, some will not
penne alla vodka
stuffed shells
meatballs
chicken marsala

Re: Catering menu help?
i just hosted a party for about 60 people we had:
chicken marsala
veal picatta
chicken parm
ravioli (2 trays)
rigatoni with shrimp and broccoli
chicken with sausage and potatoes
eggplant rollatini (2 trays)
stuffed mushrooms
tomato/mozzarella
salad
we ended up having the extra eggplant tray and ravioli tray leftover. Most of the chicken parm did not go, but the veal went quick.
hope that helps!

Re: Catering menu help?
Eggplant rolatini is a big hit with our family.
I would do a chicken, I prefer franciase or marsala over parmigian.
Penne ala vodka or some other macaroni with red saurce. Just went to a party where they had one with spinach, grilled chicken, tomatoes, and lots of garlic. It was excellent.
I like the idea of linguini with clam sauce. Or I would do ziti with garlic & oil and brocolli.
Meatballs
Salad
Garlic Knots
ENJOY!!
