Some ideas that I used for our Family Gathering this year. Most of the food was based on individual portions which allowed everyone to try something different.
Appetizers:
Deviled eggs/crudité/nuts/potato chips/cheese and bread
Main Course:
Carving station/side dishes/sushi and shrimp/meatballs and rice and of course a
Kids Corner.
Desserts: (not shown)
Fruits dipped on chocolate/cookies/ice cream/Flan
Deviled Eggs/Crudite/Individual servings of nuts Bags with chips
Different breads labeled Carving Station and side dishes
Kid's Corner
Mini hot dogs/cheese sticks/chicken fingers Meatballs and Broccoli Rice
Catch of the Day - Shrimp and Sushi
