And now I have 14

People responded yesterday without me saying anything, so I have 14 (15 with myself) and this was really a menu for 10ish.  Will the additional dishes I mentioned in that post - tipsy watermelon and another pie - be enough?  I'm getting the unwelcome feeling I need a second main dish with this many people.  Should I do Wine Enthusiast's brats from this post?  Do they go with everything else?  The guys might really like the brats as an offering.

Edit as of 9 am Friday: now 15, with 16 including myself.

Re: And now I have 14

  • I don't think you need another main, but if you are really leaning that way don't do the brats.  They don't really go with the pork.  I'd probably do a simple baked chicken.  Since you'll be firing up the oven for the pork I'd just do either a cajun chicken or a citrus chicken or just use the same thing you're using on the pork.

    I DO think another side would be good, but the watermelon isn't cutting it for me.  Maybe something warm and simple?  Some sort of zucchini or green bean or asparagus?

  • I don't think you need another main... maybe either your Sweet Onion Corn Bake - or a simple Cous Cous Salad (mix in Olive Oil, Dried Cherries, Apricots, Chopped Pecans and Scallions)  (idea from last year's Rachel Ray).

    and what is "Tipsy Watermelon"?

    (When you get a chance :)

     

    GL!

  • Hope your re-mojo party goes well today!!!!

    And I dont think you need another main but either way the menu sounds fab!
