I'm cooking all day Saturday for a dinner party that night. In which order should I cook the following foods?!
It's a huge party-like 60 people!. The menu is a fajita and nacho bar!. Which foods do well when made ahead of time!? For instance, I know the guacamole needs to be made as close to party time as possible!.!.!.I've got so much to do, I really need to do the cooking throughout the day, in stages, while I do my other hostessing preps!. The fajita meat is the only thing we are cooking DURING the party-so that it is hot off the grill!. In what order can I cook (or prep) the following foods!? I will begin cooking around 10 am!. The party is at 6 pm!.

Answers:
You need some help on this one!.
Fresh salsa the night before!.
Beans in the crock pot two days before!.
Pico de gallo, cut two days before and leave in ziplocks A quick toss in a hot pan does it!.
Shredded lettuce can be bought in bags!.
Rice can be done days in advance!.
Grilled veggies go the afternoon!. Get someone to take care of this chore for you!. The grill needs constant attention!. Cook the fajita meat days earlier and reheat it on a grill griddle to warm up!.
Have fun!.
