Party Sandwiches

We had a party last week and made 7 sandwich platters. This is the "egg" tray - egg salad decorated with cheese, cucumbers, red onions, peppers, etc. We also had trays of roast, ham, pastrami... as a decoration for the meat sandwiches we like to use sliced egg (get yourself a nice egg cutter!), plus everything we use on the egg ones.


These sandwiches are very economical to make, look pretty and taste great. Actually, the egg ones are my favorite the next day for breakfast.

What else did we serve? We kept it simple with meatballs (in the crockpot), chicken skewers - we prepared the chicken ahead of time and baked 1 tray at a time. then placed the skewers on an electric hot plate to keep warm), green salad, fruit salad, shrimp coctail and clam chowder. We discussed the idea of a potato or pasta salad too, but didn't. It is a pretty safe menu, enough to satisfy both the vegetarians and meat eaters for a little social get-together.
