Is this Menu Complete?

I'm throwing a Pampered Chef party on Saturday at 2pm.  I feel like I might need 1 or 2 more things to complete my menu.

Made ahead of time: 3 cheese veggie pizza  and apple slices with a cinnamon cheese ball

Demo's:  artichoke wonton cups and salsa (served with chips and guacamole)

Drinks:  wine, water and Izze's (does something else need to be added to this?)  

Should I add something else so there are more munchies available during the demo's?

Re: Is this Menu Complete?

  • I feel like it needs some sort of meat- chicken/beef satay, mini sandwiches, shrimp, or maybe a second pizza with chicken?  Then again it's at 2 so you don't really need a meal. 

  • I would add some kind of non carbonated non alcoholic drink. Iced tea with a fruit floating in it maybe?
  • What about chicken salad in phyllo cups? It's always my go-to daytime entertaining snack for a non-theme party. I made my chicken salad with very little mayo and I add pecans {even though I'm allergic and can't eat them!} or sliced almonds and halved red grapes.

  • Have fun, I love PC parties. 

    My sis had one recently and basically the guests ate what they demostrated.  But she also had chips and dip, pigs in a blanket, chicken salad on pita breads cut into quarters. 

    She also was demonstrating the Quick Stir Pitcher and made a really good raspberry lemonade.

    All in all between the meals you will prepare and the finger foods, you should be fine, they are there to buy not eat. LOL, even though I felt like I did more of that than anything, Have a great time.

  • Thanks for all of your ideas. We will definitely be adding iced tea to the menu, and another dish.  I'm still deciding between all of your ideas!
