Party Tips

Pre-party prep is crucial and also helps you save time on party day so that you can enjoy your guests not get stuck in the kitchen. Par-cook your Protein and wrap and store until the day of the party. Sauces and dips can be made ahead of time and then pull them out in time to heat and serve on party day. "WORK SMARTER NOT HARDER"

Buffets are a great way to manage and feed guests. Get as much done as you can the day before and focus on foods that can be eaten at room temperature so you can simply thaw, unwrap & serve. Remember to "KEEP IT SIMPLE"

Whether you're eating at the table or buffet-style, focus on foods that you can roast or bake (casseroles) so that they take a while to cook, but won't require your constant attention in the kitchen. MINGLE!!!!!

Solve your dessert dilemma by asking everyone to bring his or hers special Family Dessert. Your guests can show off their best recipes and everyone will enjoy the variety. LIVE A LITTLE!!!!!
