Family dinner menu critique pls.
My grandmother is coming to visit and stay with my parents for a few days. My Mom was discussing a menu with me, and trying to come up with what to have exactly. Here's what we have come up with so far:
BBQ Chicken
Ribs
Macaroni Salad
Green Beans
What else should we serve?
I wanted to do Arnold Palmers for drinks, and then a dessert (but not sure what).
Re: Family dinner menu critique pls.
Hi! Love the menu... here are a few side suggestions:
Would only choose 2 of these:
Green Salad
Cucumber Salad
Corn on Cob or Fresh Corn Salad
Tomato-Mozzarella-Basil Salad
Fresh Fruit Salad or Sliced Watermelon with your Dessert
Let me know if you need recipes!
Cheers~
For dessert you could always do some kind of fruit compote with a pound cake or individual lemon tarts or something like that.
Good luck, it sounds delicious!
That sounds really good. My aunt loves bbq chicken and serves it often. Most recently, she served with potato salad, green salad, cornbread. I think pp's suggestion of corn is a great way to go.
Any fruit pie would be good and/or brownies.

Thinking of doing cosmetic updates to a dated home? These were our costs.
I'd add a green salad & love the idea of corn or fruit like melon. For dessert, how about strawberry shortcake?
The cucumber salad sounds great, and something with corn might be good too. If you have a cucumber salad recipe you love, let me know!
Still havent decided on dessert, but something fruit (peach maybe?) and light does sound delicious like you ladies have suggested. Thank you so much for all of your help, I might be back
