bday menu

I asked DH what he thought about beef burgers for T's 3rd bday, he said he didnt think it was a good idea because we had it at his 1st bday.  I thought it would be cheap, easy and good.  Anyone have any ideas.  DH thought about lunch meat sandwiches, but I would not want to leave the meat out in the heat all day.  At least the beef burgers would be in a crockpot.

    What about a taco bar? You could still have meat in a crockpot this way. You'd have to keep some of the toppings cool, but a pan of ice would take care of that long enough to serve.
  • We just did walking tacos for Hudson's first birthday... kept the taco meat in a roaster...had shredded lettuce, salsa, cheese and sour cream and little bags of doritoes.   Everyone seemed to enjoy them and they're portable :)

  • What about bbq pulled pork sandwiches?  Easy, cheap, and you can leave them it in a crockpot.  Just put out pickles, onions, and coleslaw so people can dress as they like :)

  • If you want to do beef burgers again do it. His 1st birthday was 2 years ago so I doubt anyone would care if you had it then. We did beef burgers for A&A's first birthday and we did them again for their 2nd bday. No complaints here. Everybody loves them. If you want to mix it up, offer different sides.

    E wants spaghetti for her 4th birthday. I'm thinking that may be a bit messy and hard for an outdoor party so we may go with a taco bar which is another favorite of E.
