Hello! I have two questions to throw to the group:
1) I'll be running an all day kitchen in a couple weeks. Asking for
donations, I got 2 big cans of crab meat. It's about 2 lbs.of crab, so I
figure an appetizer type something, but what? My menu theme is centered
around the Medetearranean, Each course that I'm setting out every couple
hours focused on a specific area/culture {Moorish, Spainish, Middle eastern,
etc} within our time period.
2) I want to "one-up" my supervisor. We plan parties/special lunches
around the various holidays. I work with adulis with {profound & severe}
developmental disabilities. Most have either problems with chewing &
swallowing or have no teeth. With summer here, her idea of the "good menu"
is sloppy joes, tater tots, baked beans, chips and maybe a cookie. I'm
thinking to suggest pulled pork sandwiches, coleslaw {cut finely, like KFC}
jello salad and "sorbets" {fruit slushies}. Usually the budget is ~$75.00
to feed 30 - 35 people.
I need to tap the brains of the greater collective here!
Thanks!
