We are having my daughter's simchat bat (Jewish baby naming) at the end of the month and I'm having a terrible time deciding on what to serve.

Given it's a holiday weekend, I thought we would have a small turnout--turns out we are having a sizable crowd (in my very small 1920's colonial) of about 50 people. Ceremony called for 11:30am--so we will be serving Lunch

So--do I do Kosher Deli (any recommendations?), sandwhich trays and salad (any other recommendations?) Thanks for any help!

I would do bagels. Have them sliced and get a variety of cream cheeses, lox/smoked fish and garnish. Then do a few different kind of salads to go with, like tuna, egg & maybe chicken salad which can be eaten alone or on bagel & is good for low carb dieters too. Then a green salad, a tortellini salad or other. Costco has a bunch of prepared salads if you need to supplement. Also, if you are having kids, it can't hurt ot have some mini bagels (or quartered bagels) and plain cream cheese, butter and jelly available. Definitely do a fruit platter too. On a warm spring afternoon it's perfect.

Some people might like the deli sandwich platter idea but I don't eat meat so take my thoughts with a grain of salt!
