We're having a party at our house for about 30 or so people (eek) for hubby and a friends joint birthday.

Does anyone have tips on food which is cheap and easy to prepare and generally well received?

Thanks in advance

    The site's real slow right now - but a search on "party" without the quotes, will come up with plenty of ideas for you.

    And there are a couple in the MEGA Index here:-

    Party:
    - 1950's theme
    - feeding 100
