[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yes, OP. If you invited them to stay with you, you will need to provide food. Hopefully, as others have said the guests will offer to buy some food and also take you out to dinner. Otherwise, you need to think of frugal options. I grew up with 8 kids in my family, so I know how to make cheap meals for big groups: * Breakfast casserole s....prep the night before each morning * Bananas are the cheapest fruit..buy them green so they last a long time * Make your own pizza dough, shred your own cheese + have pizza night *Buy whatever meat is on sale ( ham, for example, is 99 cents a pound now at Giant + Safeway) *You already mentioned lasagna -- good, cheap idea * Make meatloaf * Get canned vegetables * Make your own desserts- Christmas cookies, homemade pies *Make your own breads/rolls * Spaghetti night * Mexican casserole night * Make homemade popcorn for snacks *Make peanut noodles for snacks * I like someone's idea to make tuna and egg salad for lunches. I would add [b]cabbage and pasta salad[/b] * Make chili and soups for lunch * Make large quantities of iced tea and lemonade - (super cheap)[/quote] Nothing like having 10 guests farting in your house at Christmastime![/quote]
