#1 Lasagna
Lasagna makes for a really simple, affordable, filling, and well liked meal. Many of your guests will even prefer this to more expensive meals like lobster. You could make this yourself ahead of time and freeze it. Another option would be to stalk up on frozen lasagna at a place like Costco. Throw and caesar salad and you will have a great meal.
#2 Costco For Appetizers
Take a look at Costco to purchase many of your appetizers. You can find things like spinach tarts, wings, pork, and all sorts of other goodies for cheap. Your guest will love these and it won’t cost you a fortune to purchase them.
#3 Pasta
I already recommended lasagna, but other types of pasta can make for a great meal. The great thing about pasta is that it is usually affordable and it will always fill up your guests. Throw in some salad and garlic bread, and you will have yourself a cheap meal. Catering for this sort of thing shouldn’t be too expensive either.
#4 Potluck
Years ago a potluck reception was the standard. It’s still a great meal that is affordable. One downside of a potluck is that it take a little more organization. You need to be aware of who is bringing what dishes.
#5 Go With A Themed Meal
You don’t have to limit yourself just to pasta or lasagna. Think about other style of foods you enjoy. You could do a Mexican meal very easily. This would work well in a buffet style. Think about all of those different tortillas, wraps, and Mexican salads. You could also go with a barbecue theme or even a Chinese food theme.
