- Don’t Stress! Tips for making entertaining a breeze.
Coming up with a menu and making sure everything goes off without a hitch takes special planning. Use my checklists to help keep you on task. You will also find tips that you never even thought of. For example, make your mashed potatoes ahead of time and keep them warm in a crockpot until you are ready to serve dinner. You just freed up some precious time and space on your stove for those other last-minute items such as rolls.
- Struggling to find the right menu for your party?
Do you expect a large group of people? Make sure you choose something that will be inexpensive and easy to prepare. I have found that ham and macaroni cheese is one of the easiest and least expensive meals to make and feeds a lot of people. The macaroni and cheese can be prepared the day before. All you have to do is throw it in the oven an hour before your party. Take a look at my other dinner menus for inspiration.
