A birthday party should have plenty of everything: gifts, entertainment, funny jokes, delicious food. If you want to invite a lot of people to your holiday, then you need to think about how to feed them.
Conventionally, birthdays can be divided into children, adults and mixed ones. In the latter case, both age categories will be present, so it is better to make a children's and an adult's table.
There are dishes that can be served to everyone. First of all, this is an appetizer. It is with her that it is better to start the celebration with a large company.
Snack dishes
Canapes
Take 2-3 loaves of white bread (depending on the number of guests), cut it into 0.8 cm slices and cut off the crust. Now you need a glass with thin edges, 5-6 cm in diameter. Use this glass or crystal tool to make bread discs. Now you can put various layers on top of them, and then fasten this whole structure with special canapé skewers. Here are variations on some of the canapes:
Spread the bread with butter, put a piece of cheese cut with the same glass on it. Next, a thin square piece of ham is cut off and fixed at the top in the shape of a sail. You can make a sail from an oval piece of cucumber and put the ham on top of the cheese.
Place a piece of salmon on a round or oval bread base, and on top of it - a rose made of butter and a few red eggs. To make a rose, a ribbon is removed from a frozen piece of butter with a sharp knife and wrapped in the shape of a flower.
The basis for canapes can be not only their bread, but also cracker, unsweetened puff pastry. Layers can also be very diverse: fish, game, meat, vegetables.
To feed a large company, they make enough salads. They also belong to appetizer dishes, but they also go well with hot dishes.
What to serve hot
Birthday dishes should be delicious and look spectacular. It would be nice to serve the whole baked chicken. If the company is very large, then you can cook 2-3 carcasses. Such pleasure is inexpensive, and the guests will be satisfied and well fed.
To prepare this dish, you will need chicken, salt and mayonnaise. Wash the carcass, dry it a little on a towel, rub the outside and inside with salt. Now it needs to be put in a greased rooster.
If you do not want to boil potatoes separately, then you can stuff a bird with them. Place the chicken in an oven preheated to 190 ° C at 40-50 (depending on the size of the carcass), covering it with a lid. After this time, take it out, apply mayonnaise on the top and side surfaces, put it back on the roaster without covering it with a lid. Bake for another 15 minutes until a delicious crust appears.
You can put meatballs, homemade chicken breast nuggets on the children's table, but the children will also like the whole baked chicken.
For adults, you can cook cheese-breaded pork chops or bake the ham in the oven.
A birthday cake will round off the fun feast. In addition to him, at the end of the banquet, you can serve ice cream, sweets, fruits.
