We are having guests next week for the entire week. There will be about 16 of us for three meals a day. Breakfast and lunch will be no problem but I'm looking for some easy, inexpensive recipes that we can fix either in the crock pot,>------------------------------...

INGREDIENTS:
salt to taste
1 (2.5 ounce) jar liquid shellfish boil ( or old bay)
3 pounds kielbasa sausage, cut into 1 inch pieces
5 pounds new red potatoes
4 lemons, halved
1 tablespoon diced green chile pepper, or to taste
12 ears fresh corn (broken in half)
10 pounds medium shrimp - peeled and deveined
12 blue crabs, cleaned



DIRECTIONS:
Use a very large pot (we use a 40 quart pot), fill it half full with water; bring water to a full boil. Add salt, shellfish boil, sausage, and potatoes. Let cook until the potatoes are approximately 1/2 completed cooking.
Stir in lemons, hot peppers, and corn. Continue boiling until all of the vegetables are tender. Turn off the heat.
Mix in shrimp and crab. Cover pot and let sit for 10 to 15 minutes. When shrimp are pink and the crabmeat opaque and flaky, remove all of the vegetables and shellfish from the pot, and drain well.

I'm always partial to soups and stews with home-made bread.

Pizza can be cheap and easy. You can always get that 555 or 777 deal.

Fried chicken can be cheap especically if you buy it by the case and just make something like instant potatoes with it.

rotail dip can be a "meal"

spagetthi , salad , bread Taco soup! In the crock pot:

3 cans of beans (your choice but I like 2 kidney and 1 garbonzo)
1 packet of taco seasoning
1 packet of ranch dressing mix (dry)
1 can of corn
2 small or 1 large can(s) of tomatoes (diced)
1 can of tomato paste
1 - 1.25 lbs of ground beef or turkey browned and drained

mix all in crock pot and cook on low all day. Yummy served with tortillas or tortilla chips and it is recommended by weight watchers and a low cal dinner! It is SOOOO good!!

Why not try a different "theme" on different nights. Jambalaya for a "Loosiana" night, can be bought pre-packaged, and just add chicken. Make in advance and 'nuke' individual servings. For the crock pot, you can load it with boneless spareribs, and let simmer all day, covered in your favorite BBQ sauce. (I prefer Sweet Baby Ray's). For dinner, serve on hamburger buns with a side of cole slaw, for a great BBQ dinner.

Been there, done that! either a pot roast or stew works well,, easy to fix and inexpensive. use any basic seasoning recipe you like and use the crock to cook. make sure you have pleanty of moisture in the pot.

Hey Lady,
I am a cook offshore and i cook for between 80-120 people twice a day. I find the oven is the easy way to cook and there is a lot of good recipes to choose from. If you need help e-mail me back. Where to start :
Non- mayo pasta salads- use penne or bow toe pasta , diced veggies artichoke hearts, olives , Italian dressing ,meat in the form of diced chicken or cooked shrimp.
.Make a pot roast
get a spiral cut ham, make the classic cider raisin sauce
Make entree green salads with meat-
grill some chicken breasts
Stuffing a full pork loin with cornbread stuffing may be a bit much but you will get 24 slices out of it.
quarter 4 chickens marinate and grill.
meatloaf is great next day food
have fun a really easy and *cheap* way to feed a lot of people is beans and rice. it's best done in the crock pot and it's a no brainer meal.

for 16 people, you need a big crock pot or big pot.

-2 lb pinto beans (bought dry from the grocery, sorted through for no rocks)
-2 lb of precooked sausage (i like jalapeno sausage)
-1 large white onion (chop into medium pieces)
-2-3 fresh jalapenos (deseed and remove white inside and chop)
-3-4 pieces of garlic (smash and remove hulls)

put all of this in the crock pot or pot on stove and cover completely with water. let cook (on high setting in crock pot or med-low setting on stove) for 2-3 hours, stirring occasionally. test for doneness by tasting the beans - they're ready when they are tender and flavorful.

once they're mostly done, you can add salt, pepper, season-all, fajita seasoning, and garlic powder to taste.

this is so easy ... i did half this recipe for my office and it cost less than $12 with sides! this is great with cornbread or rice ... and i serve it as a meal with one of those sides and fresh green beans with bacon. yum. Veggie platters....Fruit platters...Humongous Salad...Each with different varieties of dips...Meatballs in the crock pot with any sauce of your liking...You can make the meatballs a head of time when it is still cool maybe morning. Place them in freezer bags..save in freezer till you need them. Also Frozen already cooked shrimp..you can buy them bagged and ready to go at Fiesta.
Just thaw out..places some bottled cocktail sauce with some chopped cilantro, lemon wedges...very good and no cooking. P. S Go to www.foodnetwork.com....many more ideas. Good luck and remember don't stress.
