Deli Sandwich Meal
From Walmart (125 people)
- Five 6 foot sub sandwiches -- 2 turkey 1 ham 1 and 2/3 roast beef 1/3 veggie. These were on yummy french bread with meat and cheese only (except the veggie) (Four 6 foot subs would be plenty too)
- Ordered with condiments on the side: Tomatoes, onions, lettuce (1 tray each), mayo (3 bottles) and mustard (3 bottles). This works well as the sandwiches don't get soggy.
- 100 Cupcakes or (240 Costco cookies (four trays))
- Lots left over. The leftovers are served to the kids right before we leave. If there is enough, it allows for kids (and chaperones) to get home earlier as we don't have to stop for food.
