My husband’s family is visiting from overseas for 3 weeks over the summer. 
We will probably travel half the time but while they are staying with us, I need to feed them.

I’m used to cooking for 5 people but now it will be 12 people and that’s very different. 
Also, my husband’s mother is strictly vegetarian but won’t eat salads, veggie burgers or tofu among other things. She typically eats her own cooking - Indian food. I will likely have to make her food separately too. 
That’s another issue because she won’t eat chick peas and all my Indian food recipes are with chicken or chick peas.

But for the rest of the group who eat anything but red meat - any recipes that work for large groups???
Breakfast, lunch and dinner ideas

I’ll make my homemade macaroni and cheese for kids and large salads to have on hand along with sandwich supplies. Maybe a French toast casserole one morning and sometimes they will have eggs/toast or cereal and fruit.

But I’m overwhelmed by this. I’m a decent cook but I get nervous trying new recipes for other people so I’m going to start experimenting soon.

Any easy meal recipes appreciated since [b]I’m likely shopping, planning, cooking and cleaning alone. [/b][/quote]

For that many people and for that length of a visit why would you be cooking and cleaning on your own? No ma’am! This is where they need to step up and help out with the cleaning and cooking. No wonder you feel overwhelmed that’s a lot of people to be a servant to.
