After church, we came back to our house for lunch. We had carefully thought out the menu so we could plan ahead and have things ready. The menu was:

appetizers:

Chips and salsa

Carrots, pita chips and hummus

meal:

Pulled Pork Sandwiches with rolls

Coleslaw (for sandwiches)

Quinoa Lentil Salad

Cheese Potatoes

Caesar Salad

Green Beans with Almonds

dessert:

Cake

Sugar cookies

drinks:

Coffee

Lemonade

Water/Pop

Everything turned out great! We set card tables out on the deck for people to eat.

Chips and salsa

  

Spicy artichoke dip

Cashew clusters

Carrots and hummus

  

We didn’t have too many appetizers because it was lunch.

I made almond sugar cookies in the shape of crosses.

  

Wrapped silverware

We had a variety of rolls to fit whatever kind of sandwich people were in the mood for: wheat, white, buns and rolls!

Brady’s mom got pulled pork for our main dish and it got great reviews!

I made coleslaw to go on the sandwiches.

Classic cheese potatoes, perfect for a big group of people!

Green Beans and Almonds – a great make ahead dish!

  

My mom’s famous caesar salad.

I made a quinoa lentil salad.

Brady’s mom got the cake and had Anna Banana’s picture on it! 🙂 We couldn’t eat her face so we gave it to our friends!

It was a great time to hang out with family! I could tell Anna really enjoyed it. 😉 Recipes to come!
