I've been assigned the task of making pea-raddichio gnudi as my contribution for an appetizer. I'm not a great cook so this is a huge p-i-t-a. Of course my cousin said it's easy but she devours advise from Giada & Alton as if anyone with half a brain could pull off these recipes. Wish me luck!
How about buying some fresh turkey cutlets, usually sold in the meat dept, roasting them. Cool and cut into chunks, then add to condensed soups,(cream of chicken, celery etc) or turkey gravy, and place in a casserole dish with some Pepridge Farm dressing mixed together with butter and chicken broth, and placed on top of the turkey/gravy mixture. Bake until bubbly and hot. Serve with some mashed potatoes, peas, & cranberry sauce. Very reasonable meal and tasty!
Breakfast idea...this is really good!

Ham with a brown sugar and mustard sauce; scalloped potatoes, green bean casserole( neither my husband and I like asparagus all that well and I am allergic to green peas-the traditional spring veggies); cole slaw ; deviled eggs, dinner rolls and some kind of dessert ( our guests are making that) . For drinks we plan to have soda pop, beer and white Russians. We do have a little wine for anyone who wants it.
I received word that our guests are thinking about adding another item to them menu-a veggie platter ( carrots, celery, radishes etc). Both husband and wife are diabetic so my husband and I can avoid serving not so healthy snacks ( pretzels, potato chips etc.) as predinner appetizers.
We use to bar-b-que for easter. Usually a mix of hamburgers, spicy sausage (to be served as a po'boy), and chicken. All served with plain homemade potato salad. We keep our potato salad simple. Just eggs, potatoes, salt, black pepper, mayo, and French's yellow mustard. Also served with it is what we cajuns call rice dressing, a spicy mix of rice, meat, and other stuff.
Ham, Link sausages, 2 briskets bbq'ed, potato salad , Red potatoes and Fresh green beans, pinto beans, Cakes , cup cakes , breads, chips, dips .... deviled eggs and much more. which is way too much even for 12 or so people.
