[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If I know absolutely nothing about the guest's preferences or dietary restrictions:
- Green salad with lettuce and a variety of vegetables, chopped large enough that they can push whatever they don't like to the side
- Grilled chicken with a lemon-garlic-herb marinade
- Roasted new potatoes with parmesan
- Another vegetable such as roasted broccoli, steamed green beans, or grilled zucchini

I know you can't please everyone, but this avoids the biggest offenders (pork, seafood, nuts, etc) and hopefully offers enough variety that people can find something they like, even if they don't eat everything. I've never had anyone complain or go without eating anything.

If I know the people better, I love cooking fish or more complicated dishes, but I'm not going to try that unless I know they'll be OK with it. [/quote]
This is pretty good except I would skip parmesan on potatoes for dairy insensitivity and assure no croutons on salad for gluten sensitivity/celiac.[/quote]

The premise of the OP states that no one has any of these issues.[/quote]
