Does anyone have a good idea on what to have for supper for a birthday party??
Answers:
well it depends on what you like, well make burgers, mac and cheese, pizza or soft tacos. I guess it depends on the age of the birthday person. well if it is a big crowd, pizza or get subway. pizza probably would b cheaper.
if it is for kids, pizza. if it is for adults, finger food, chicken, subway platers, veggies, hire a cater if it is for adults they can give you ideas. call around, ask your friends and family for ideas. good luck.
Order in pizza, or just cook some at home.
Pizza is always in "good taste".
If it's for a child then hotdogs and hamburgers. But an adult party..I would just put out finger foods like chicken wings, finger sandwiches, devilled eggs, raw vegs and dip, etc
Depends on what kind of a birthday party you are having. Is this an elaborate evening or just close friends coming over?
Finger foods and drinks are good before supper.
For the dinner spread
1. Salad (of your choice) - keep the different dressings separately in bowls (2 to 3 kinds of dressing).
2.. Chicken curry - (seasoned or cooked plain) basmati rice to go with it.
3. Grilled fish / Crumb fried fish slices.
4. Have a bread basket of dinner rolls for those who don't prefer rice.
Dessert - brownies and ice-cream
(If you are vegetarian, make a vegetable curry instead of the chicken one. Substitute stir fried vegetables for the grilled fish)
Don't want to go through the trouble of preparing the above. Just order in pizzas as people have suggested here.
:-)
pizza or chicken and spaghetti
we usually do sloppy joes and hotdogs, or something similar ya know cook out food
hot dogs or hamburgers chips, dip,punch
baked beans, potato salad or what ever you have a taste for and can affoord its your birthday right
Lasagne and Salad
for adults - BBQ Chicken and burgers OR, if you want get a little more upscale, do some kabobs with salad, garlic bread and maybe a fruit salad. Kids primarily - no brainer, I agree with the pizza.
If it is a kids party you can't go wrong with pizzas. Either order in or have the kids make their own "mini" pizzas using English muffins and various toppings. Another idea I love to do is to get a bunch of appetizers and have those and some sub sandwhiches cut into individual sizes.
If you live where it is nice outside, a cook out with burgers and hot dogs is also a good/simple idea.
Pickled pig's feet, a nice loaf of head cheese, chitlins, and some beet juice.
All very much depends on the type of party you want it to be and how much cooking you want to do?
