Hi Moms,

We are having a party next weekend by our pool. (my bday is the following day) We normally do bbq's, but then my husband is cooking all day. I want him to be included on the fun... I decided I want a bunch of subs ( it's cheaper for us to make them, then to order them)... What easy sides can we make to go with the subs?

We are doing:
Fruit platter
veggie platter
pickles
potato/macaroni salad

what else? It's for about 40 people :)

What can I do next?

sounds complicated, but you can make mac n cheese, just bake right before - always a kid favorite

Don't forget about chips perhaps a bean dip

baked beans.

Whenever I eat a sub/sandwich for some reason I feel they need to be eaten with potato chips, I would make sure to have some of those too. Have fun!

Add olives, pickled peppers and the like to your pickle tray. Maybe add another simple salad or fruit salad or casserole. A couple kinds of Chips and dip and maybe cheese and a few different types of crackers or humus and crackers.

Have Fun!

I just asked a question about Phyllo cups and what to put in them.....Some recommend Guacamole and sour cream, or a simple fruit salad in the phyllo cups. That would go well with your main dish. :-) What you have listed should be enough. Keep it simple for you all ok. That way you all can join the fun too. :-) I think what you have is great already....no need to add anything else.

I vote for chips, fresh fruit, and a simple salad with just maybe lettuce, tomato, cucumber and a few dressing choices.
