I need a caterer to help me!?!
We're having a potluck banquet for about 200 people!. I have to put the sign-up form on our website in a week and the caterer that is helping us is in her busy season and hasn't had time to look over the list!. I have no idea how much of each thing to ask for!. Clearly if we have 100 couples there, with each bringing one dish, the list needs to be larger!. It's a Christmas Dinner (yeah, it's Christmas in July) and we're providing the turkey!.
Here's a mockup list that I've made so far: http://www!.luckypotluck!.com/potluck/AMad!.!.!.
Anybody wish to give tips on what I need to put on there!? Thanks in advance!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Answers:
You have 5 each of the pans of sweet potatoes & stuffing, so each pan would need to feed 40 people! You might need those people to bring 2 pans each:)!.!.!.!.!.!.
You have 3 large containers of cranberry sauce - I hope you realize that these people are just going to bring a can of it! !.!.!. Since you only have 3 pies (for 200 people), why not have 6 people bring pies PLUS a can of cranberry sauce!? !.!.!.!. also, you only have 3 people bringing "other dessert"!.!.!.!.!. Those people would each need to bring TWO cakes, or 1 very large platter of cookies!.!.!.!.!.

i would ask for some sort of vegetables, (like a veggie tray)
three of them would be good for 100 people
and you probably need 4 gallons of each tea instead of 3
anyother questions just email meWww@FoodAQ@Com
