Hi, all! Can you please help me figure out a Purim seudah appetizer for about 40 people? These are my criteria:
1. Fleishig (or pareve)
2. No fish
3. Something that can be put out at least a little before (I.e. doesn't have to be piping hot)
4. No nuts
5. I don't mind a bit of a patchke, but nothing with 37 steps or 5 different pans needed.
6. Something that looks pretty gets you extra points.
7. Not too expensive also gets you extra points (I.e. no individual portions of caviar-topped endive leaves, etc.).
What you get:
1. My eternal gratitude
2. A heartfelt bracha
Thank you!

I used to do a fruit cup of canned pineapple tidbits, canned mandarin oranges and frozen blueberries. You can add whip but totally not needed. Everything turns a beautiful purple. (Leave in the liquids from the cans). Everyone loves it and sooo easy!

I wrote a whole megilah & lost the post. I'll try again.
Wraps with cold cuts & salad mix, slice deli roll, deli muffin, deli salad.
Ramen noodle salad, nosh nish salad. Salad with roasted sweet potato chips. Sugar snap pea salad with sauteed mushroom/garlic. They sell now ready wrap bowls. Or you just put flatbreads/breadstix.
Mini rolls with garlic aoli or other dipping stuff maybe chumus/ zaatar.
Mock liver
Pasta shells with sauteed pastrami & duck sauce. Adapted from miriam Pascal.
Sushi. Fruit smoothie.

This sounds great! The guacamole doesn’t start turning brown?

You layer or you mix it all together?

So this is a separate quandary- I cannot find Terra Stix anywhere these days. I fear they are not being made anymore.

Wow! Very excited about this cylinder scoop. It's shown for ice cream. Does it release the guac as neatly? Could use for tuna/egg/chicken salad, etc??

I made it fresh... if you leave the pit nearby it shouldn’t turn brown, as with any open avocado.

It came out very neatly. Should work for any of those with the right consistency. I’ve also seen it used for mashed potatoes with shredded meat on top.

Eggrolls are easy and can be presented in a nice way on the table. I made one from the new Eished Chayil cookbook and it was pretty good.

I don’t always find that the pit helps. Do you think an hour before is ok? Can I bother you to share your guacamole recipe?

I actually already own this. It works pretty well with anything that’s not too sticky.

Hmm hard to say about the hour... I’d prob do it, but I don’t want to guarantee. Maybe put in container in fridge?
I usually just do avocado, lime juice and garlic salt (generous amount of salt is key - taste to get the right amount, of course don’t want too much). When I served it as an appetizer I may have added tomatoes. But that’s the base.

They stoped making it but I’ve done the terra salad with terra chips, just crushed
It a bit. Actually came out really pretty and crunchy.
