Final menu, for what turned out to be 11 guests:
- Lamb meatballs with greek yogurt (about 30)
- Stuffed mushrooms (about 25)
- TJ Goat cheese/caramelized onion puff pastries (2 boxes)
- Home-baked crostini + tomato/fennel sauce (about 15)
- Bacon-wrapped dates (20 pcs)
- Bratwurst with Dijon mustard (6 brats)
- 1 small veg plate (the smallest one)
- 3 apples, sliced
- Cheesecake
Notes:
- Make 30 meatballs, which was more than enough. Seemed OK. Plenty left over. Good thing they reheat well and taste delicious on flatbread! People barely touched the yogurt sauce.
- Stuffed mushrooms were really easy and a hit; only one of about 25 left. A good vegetarian offering; several folks asked how I made them.
- TJ pastries always go fast!
- Crostinis with tomato spread all went, and then later, hungry Catchphrase players devoured the remaining crostini's w/o anything
- 6 brats were perfect for the 11 or so people we had; no leftovers!
- I'm happy I didn't do the tri-tip, was unnecessary; likewise, the pizza/flatbread would've been too much too.
- 3 apples were perfect; any more people, 6 would have been better. These were all gone.
- Veg tray was almost all gone.
- Forgot to serve the cheesecake!
- Get some Stevia, SweetNLow, or Splenda for those that don't use sugar with coffee (like Perry)
- I think the 2-5pm was a good time on New Years Day, was fun! Some stayed later, which was OK.
