Bridal Shower Luncheon: Summer Salads Galore!
On Saturday, my mom and I hosted a bridal shower for 25 in honor of Tricia — my oldest friend. The shower was at the bride’s parents house in beautiful Spring Lake, NJ.
My mom and I cooked all the dishes — an array of summer salads — on Friday and brought them over on Saturday morning.
For dessert, we ordered cupcakes (I’ll provide a link to my red velvet cupcake recipe), filled store-bought chocolate shells with fruit, and bought chocolate-covered pretzels.
Everyone raved about the food. I think people enjoyed the variety of dishes and that nothing was too hot or heavy for a summer afternoon. My personal favorites were the Chinese Chicken Salad and the Roasted Shrimp & Orzo.
