Answer 1

You didn't say how BIG the crowd was. Ever been in an elevator with 10 people? That's a crowd. Here's a base start:

Mini Quiche

Ingredients

8 oz Cottage cheese-small curd
1/4 c Sour cream
4 oz Shredded sharp cheddar cheese
1/2 c Bisquick (I used RecipEase)
1/4 c Melted butter
3 Eggs
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Mix all ingredients with
Electric mixer. Grease mini-muffin tins or use Teflon ones.
Fill 3/4 full. Bake for 15-20 minutes or until brown.
Hints: Add onion, bacon, mushrooms,etc. May be frozen.
Reheat at 300 degrees or microwave for 3 minutes on high.
Note: These are great! Be sure to add cooked bacon and
Some diced onion. This recipe only makes about
1 1/2 Dozen so be sure to at least double! Great

Answer 2

How about Oriental Salad? It's tasy and easy to prepare.

Oriental Salad of Noodles and Nappa Cabbage

1 small head nappa cabbage, chopped
1 bunch green onions, chopped
Put these 2 ingredients in a sealed plastic bag, and refrigerate them overnight.
2 packages Ramon noodles, crushed
4 ounces slivered almonds
1/2 cup sesame seeds
1 stick margarine or butter
Melt margarine, and brown the noodles, almonds and sesame seeds. Drain on a paper towel and refrigerate.
Dressing:
1/2 cup oil
3/8 cup sugar
1 Tablespoon soy sauce
1/4 cup vinegar
Mix all together just before serving.
