It is graduation time and that usually means lots of friends and family visiting for the event. When crowds gather, they love to eat, so you better get your meal plans in order!
Some of you may have multiple graduates, with 8th grade ceremonies as well as high school graduation and, if you've timed it just right, you may even have a college senior, too. If you're in this situation, you are certain to have timing issues, which can make food preparation difficult. It's great to have a menu that allows for more advanced preparation and little effort on "commencement" day!
Here are a few menu ideas for casual, yet festive parties. Penny Drobny of Moraga has both a high school and a middle school graduate this year. She requested a meal plan that would allow for eating while roaming for the first party and a sit down event the second day, which if the weather is nice, could be an indoor-outdoor event. The question is: How to wow guests, when there are so many other things to get done that week?
Maybe these ideas will help you to do just that!
