What would you serve with....
Comments (18)I'm not having a Super Bowl party this year, but this is a very good way to celebrate it without too much work. We eat lots of Mexican food here in south Texas. Depending on how much time, effort, availability of food and money you want to spend, you might want to consider serving all or some of the following foods. If possible, I would serve lots of different meats including ground beef with taco seasoning, beef and chicken fajita meats, shredded pork, fried and/or grilled shrimp and fried and/or grilled fish (fish tacos). Also be sure to serve corn and flour tortillas and crispy taco shells. For toppings have on hand shredded lettuce, diced tomatoes, both sweet yellow and red onions, black olives, stuffed olives, several types of shredded cheese, chili peppers including jalapeños, serranos and habaneros, sliced avocadoes, guacamole, sour cream, salsa, pico de gallo, and sliced lemons and limes. And beans (frijoles), pintos and/or black, frijoles soup and/or refried beans. I would skip the boxed Spanish rice. The Mexican restaurants down here serve yellow rice which I much prefer. Brown the yellow rice in a little oil with diced onions and garlic, then substitute chicken broth for water, and I add a can of drained baby peas and a can of diced tomatoes and green chilies, RO*TEL or Hatch. Both are very good. Also lots of chips served with chili con queso, guacamole, salsa and pico de gallo. And you might want to make up a big tray of nachos that can include meats, refried beans, cheese, etc. Jalapeño poppers would be good, i.e. peppers stuffed with cream cheese and wrapped in bacon and cooked. For drinks be sure to have margaritas, frozen, on the rocks, with salt, without salt, sliced limes and be sure to add a couple of green stuffed olives for an extra flavor. And be sure to use a good tequila. And Mexican beer served with sliced limes and salt is good. For desert fresh fruit, sopapillas, ice cream and/or flan. The following might be of some help. Ortega has some good suggestions. It states the following: A Taco Buffet When you have a taquisa (taco party), you can join in on the festivities because your guest fill their tacos to their own liking. Have both crispy corn taco shells and soft flour tortillas warmed and on hand. Then, let your guest choose from a variety of fillings: shredded beef, pork or chicken; different varieties of refried beans; a vegetable filling, such as, fried potatoes and zucchini with chiles; crisp, cool garnishes, such as, shredded lettuce, dices tomatoes, sliced radishes, sliced green onions, sliced ripe olives and fresh cilantro; an assortment of shredded and crumbled cheeses; sour cream and guacamole; and, of course a range of salsas to satisfy all tastes, from mild to fiery....See MoreHelp!

Comments (18)I actually know many caterers who order and restaurants also these are not your Costco/BJ appetizers. If you are a caterer im sure who has a large staff with pastry chef etc im sure then you'd do from start to finish but smaller scale caterers do do this its very common. As I stated before I make 95% but do use this company and others (I cant reveal or my head will go on a chopping block by fellow caterers) for fillers that are great quality...is it a trade secret??? I guess, of course no one in the industry walks around going "Hey what appetizer company do you use?"..As a matter of fact the company Sweet Street distributes tons of cakes and pastrys to many many restaurants all over America. Ill bet you have gone to many a large party where the caterer has done this and you were not aware,Ive seen it with my own eyes. I myself handle small party's start to finish but when i book a 100 plus party i surely do not make every appetizer from scratch....the main courses are always made by me. Surprised you all were surprised....See MoreQuotes 7 -12 -17

Comments (4)P. G. Wodehouse, one of my favorite book characters was Jeeves. Also one of those books which is somewhere in back of a bookcase, need to look. Mario Puzo can hit home, painfully. Like his quotes. Barry McGuire is an unknown to me. His quotes are biographical, so don't mean much to me. Walter Jon Williams is an old member of my bookshelves. He stays and does not go out with the donate book pile, which only very slowly gets bigger....See MoreOutsidePlaying
