Re: How does this menu sound?
Wow, you have quite a large immediate family! I'm sure you've already thought of this, but with that many people I'd also make sure that I had some stuff to snack on like chips and maybe a veggie tray. Otherwise, it sounds like a great assortment.

Re: How does this menu sound?
you don't need the zucchini tart (unless it's like a staple)
maybe grill some zucchini instead.
otherwise, looks GREAT!!! baked beans and corn bread

Sorry, I should had added the appetizers.
I will have chips/dips on every table.
Skewers with salami and provolone cheese.
Artichoke Dip and Asparagus Dip

My mother makes a mean Zucchini Tart (I think it's Giada's recipe) so she wants to make a few of them.

in that case GO FOR IT.
I thought it was on you...and that is just TOO much on top of what you are already doing.
looks great.

Re: How does this menu sound?
I would add if possibel something else for the kids..like Mac and cheese. Unless you know all the kids well and know they will eat the other things, then its perfect. Bu tI know for us, a lot of our family kids dont eat hamburgers or hotdogs ...but maybe we are just weird.
Sounds really yummy!!!

I would do grilled veggies (eggplants, zucchinis, peppers) with a bit of EVOO and salt)
