Answer 3

It depends on your wife's taste, but you need to ensure that everyone is catered for, both meat eaters and vegetarians and any nut allergy sufferers.

I make home-made cheese and onion rolls, buyin roll out puff pastry and then rolling it until about 1/2 cm thick and then three quaters across put grated cheese and grated onion all the way down, and roll as normal, milk the edges then cut the pieces into  inch pieces, glaze with egg and cook until golden.

home made quiche you can use ready to roll shortcrust pastry, and add caramilised onion and mature cheddar, other flavours include baked ham and tomato, salmon and broccoli

a nice selection of salads such as coldslaw, and tomato,mozzerella and onion with black pepper. Or beetroot, grated carrot and sultana

I cook chicken legs cooked plain, brushed with wholegrain mustard, and brushed with b-b-q sauce

maybe a nice tossed salad, with dressings on the side dont add dressings incase someone dosnt like dressings

hot baked potatoes served in foil or hot new potatoes go down well with a small k**b of butter and a little mint sprinkled on.

just some ideas!

Answer 8

Depends on what your wife enjoys. I love food, and I love throwing a party! I would try to come up with a food theme. It could be as simple or as complicated as you would like. Do you want finger foods, lots of variety? Or do you want a main and a few side dishes, not as difficult as a bunch of finger foods, but could still be great. You could go with a Greek, Mexican, Indian, Italian, etc theme...

I think Greek or Mediterranean Foods makes a great buffet! Tabulee, hummus, babajanoosh, tzatziki, kebabs of veggies and meat, pita, cous cous, fruit, baklava. Hope that helps! Have a great time.
