SC - Period cookery recipes-Spanish

Sounds as though you are in good shape.

>>Oatmeal - precooked; frozen; heated by boil-in-bag method
		Assorted Fruit

Try doing some oatmeal like this, see what happens to the consistency. 
Use canned fruit, honey and spices, heated on one of your propane
burners, to make a hot topping for the oatmeal.  If you can do canning,
your own fresh fruit, canned through the summer, will be nice.

>>Roasted Chicken - Charcoal grill

Practice with some bar-be-ques during the summer, to get your timing
exact, same for the carbonadoes.    Those were served at our barony
birthday last year, with great sucess, and with some good sauces.  Be
sure the sauces are different enough for the chicken and the carbonadoes.
 Try a pomegranite sauce for the chicken, and one of the cold sage
sauces.

>>?Mixed Salad?
			?Dressing for salad?

Get some pretty flower petals to jazz up your salad.  Ask someone who
gardens to bring you freshly picked ziplock bags of the petals.  The bags
of Spring Mix have lots of different leaf shapes and tastes--easiest to
do.  For a feast, I buy a case of the bags from the market area, and get
a break over the store price.  Serve the salad dressing separately, in
case of various food allergies, or just put out large cruets of good
olive oil and wine vinegar.  My favorite is the balsamic red wine vineger
imported from Modena, because it is smoother in taste.

>>?Beverage?

Lemonaide is a nice, light flavor to go with chicken.
Not much for a vegetarian to eat.  Maybe you don't have to cope with
that.  Do try to get other people to help you cook, at least someone to
stand by the soup pot and keep stirring; thick soups burn if you blink! 
It only takes willing hands, not experienced cooks, to stir, or put salad
greens in bowls, open cans, or measure out oil, vinegar, sauces, etc. 
The chicken and the carbonadoes will need someone at the grill
constantly, turning and watching.  There are constant things to do--2
people aren't going to be enough.  Good luck!  You've done a good job of
planning for the limitations.

Don't forget the fire extinguishers!  A spray bottle of water, too, will
help control the flames from meat juices on the coals.
