Need help with lunch menu...

[Anonymous]

We are having some new friends over for lunch. It will be fairly casual with kids included. We tend to just eat sandwiches or leftovers for lunch, so I don't really know what I should serve for lunch. (We usually only have people over for dinner, which seems easier to figure out.)

Does anyone have any ideas on what I could serve? It should be easy to make, but it doesn't have to be all that kid friendly, since the kids are really babies who don't eat real food yet.

Cold cut platter and a couple of different types of breads. Let people make their own sandwiches. Maybe a cool mustard instead of plain yellow, etc.

And I'd do one garden salad and one pasta salad.

Quiche, green salad, maybe something sweet for after

I like making grilled cheese on "real" bread (like from the bakery dept at one of the stores, crusty, yummy) - with mozz, tomato, and fresh basil. Fruit salad with it. Something for dessert.

Order pizza and wings.

With the cold weather coming, you could do soup - with a nice salad, maybe a selection of rolls. If you fear that not everyone would like the soup, you could do it in conjunction with the deli platter.
