Clicky: is this enough food? ETA: FU included at top of post

uwhuskygirl · September 2011

FU: I took away the clicky since I have a resolution now. Here's the final menu:

salad

meatball sammiches with sauteed peppers and onion

mudpuddle's tortellini soup (no italian sausage)

amanda's nutella pillow pocket things

Thanks for all of your help, ladies!

that looks good to me, the only thing I *might* add would be fruit or something, but otherwise that looks great!

i've never felt as if soup was enough of a main course... even with salad and bread. unless it was lunch/all you can eat soup/salad/breadsticks at olive garden. that's the only time soup is enough!

but i'm also a fatty. so take what i say with a grain of salt.

You missed the middle of the road, so I voted SS. I wouldn't be stuffed nor would I probably still be hungry. It sounds just fine for a meal.

This. I think adding a side (preferably fruit) would be great.

Ok, I'll grab a side of fruit on the way home.

Thanks!

so since i said i'd still be hungry, i'd change the menu slightly. instead of having a baguette, i'd have the "main course" be a pannini of some sort and have the soup be a complement to the main course.

Hope you like the soup!!

This.

its very sensible and enough food for people who watch their diet

. Fruit would be good, but its more of a dessert-ish side in my opinion. I would maybe do something like a stuffed squash/mushroom kind of hot appy thats enough for people to grab one or two.

I agree with this. I might be filled with the original menu, but probably not satisfied.

This. Changing to sandwich or adding an app would probably make it enough to fill anyone up.

the soup does have sausage in it though, so it already has meat. Also, when I said fruit, I guess I was thinking it would be served with dessert.

Sounds wonderful to me. But then again I often eat baguettes and soup for dinner.

uwhuskygirl · September 2011

Gah! What kind of sammiches do I make then?

I have 1 hour between the time that I get home till the time that they come over. I have zero extra food in the house, so I'd need to run to the grocery store.

ETA: I can do grilled cheese with the baguettes and cheddar. Will that work?

some fancy bread..spread with garlic butter. toast the bread lightly. saute some onions and bell pepper....regular sandwich meat heated on the stove top with a little bit of oil..stack it all together with a slice of cheese (or not) and bake.

I don't think you need sandwiches - I mean, you know them, are they super big eaters? Even so, my H eats a lot and I made a tortellini soup the other night (no sausage) and it was filling.

She's not, but I've seen him pack away some impressive amounts of food.
