fairfarmhand Posted June 26, 2013 Share Posted June 26, 2013 We're having about 30 people at my house for the 4th. I am making like 6 kinds of meat and I need suggestions for side dishes. Nothing too exotic, as these are meat and potatoes kind of people. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baseball mom Posted June 27, 2013 Share Posted June 27, 2013 baked beans potato salad cole slaw veggie trays pasta salad chips fruit salad deviled eggs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KatieJ Posted June 27, 2013 Share Posted June 27, 2013 baked beans potato salad cole slaw veggie trays pasta salad chips fruit salad deviled eggs This would be my list. I might throw a layered lettuce salad in there and leave out something else depending on how much time I had to prep things. Deviled Eggs and potato salad can be repeats of each other, so I might make one or the other even if I love them both. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
