[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I would also serve lasagne. It seems to be a safe food that most people will eat. [/quote]
Lasagna isn't good for people with dairy allergies or gluten sensitivities. If she's trying to account for the possibility of food restrictions, she shouldn't make any sort of casserole.

I suggested Mediterranean spread. But sandwich tray or other kinds of trays also work.[/quote]

I expect people to speak up if they have allergies or food restrictions. Why do you people always assume that people coming over to your house to eat wouldn’t speak up? I always let my hosts know that my kids are allergic to peanuts and tree nuts, and I offer to bring our own food if needed. [/quote]

You’re a shit just to not ask or consider the possibility. [/quote]

DP.  Uh, we've all just discovered why you aren't invited to other peoples' homes much, if at all.  Your response is way over the top given the context of the discussion.  You need to learn some manners.[/quote]

Go back and read the OP y'all. She wants something easy for people she doesn't know. That doesn't mean "I'm going to find out who's vegan, etc." She doesn't know them. That's all the info we have to go on.

Think about every work lunch you get catered to accommodate people "they don't know". Wraps or sandwiches, or even better, rolls with sliced meats, cheeses, veggies. Fruit (yes it's usually a freaking fruit salad or fruit plate, and people pick off what they like or take a variety--(who are you freaks against fruit salad?)) and then brownies/cookies/lemon squares/ all the above. 
If it's no trouble, add a soup. Water, Iced Tea, Lemonade, Sparkling water, 2 cokes that nobody takes, 4 diet cokes. Done. [/quote]

I take the Cokes.[/quote]
