Another menu ? for 1st Birthday

I've decided on Subway for the adults and pizza for the kids, along with nachos, meatballs, and fruit trays, cupcakes for desert. I know subway and pizza are easy and a no brainer but I just wanted to be stress free.

 My question is the following: Does this sound like enough food? Also how much should I order?

There will be about 30 adults and 30 children ages 1-10.

Each tray feeds 10 people. (2 3 inch subs)

TIA

 

Re: Another menu ? for 1st Birthday

  • I'd do Subway OR pizza.  There is no way to designate this is an adult and this is kid food.  The nachos seem out of place and the meatballs seem odd with subway.  I'd probably go with pizza, meatballs, and tossed salad. 

    Another thought, spaghetti is really easy.  You could just do spaghetti and meatballs and save a ton of cash.

    With 30 kids under the age of 10, I'd be leary of doing the spaghetti.  Sounds like one giant mess to me. 

    I do agree that the OP should do either subs or pizza. If you do that w/ the fruit, meatballs and cupcakes I would order two slices for adults and older children and one slice for the little ones.

  • i agree with the others about choosing either the subs or the pizza, but i would count on 3 slices of pizza apiece for anyone over 5. 
  • I agree w/ the others.  Do either subs OR pizza.  However, if you want to do the pizza and the subs, then maybe cut out the nachos and meatballs.  You could do a fruit tray, a veggie tray and the cupcakes instead.
