Foods To Avoid Serving at A Dinner Party, Part 1
When you are planning a dinner party menu, there are a few foods you need to avoid for various reasons. Some dishes might not be easy to consume while others make the party look too casual. If you have at least one of the below options on your dinner event menu, your party just won’t be perfect. Be smart and cross these off your “to cook” list.
. Boneless Chicken Breast
Yes, it’s a terrific dieting food that can help you forget about calories. But the diet is not the goal of a dinner party. A boneless chicken breast is very hard to make moist, flavorful, and mouthwatering. Save yourself some trouble by leaving the chicken breast for your next dieting fit.
- Pizza
Pizza is for a pool party, a kid’s birthday or a picnic. This fast food should never appear on a nicely set table with more than one fork near each plate. Pizza is a casual food that can make your dinner table look absurd, especially when it’s placed near some more complicated dishes you spent hours cooking. If you can’t cook, hire a caterer, but never order pizza.
- Steamed Vegetables
Do you like steamed vegetables? This food is great for 9-month kids and a dieting guru. But if you had to choose between steamed vegetables and a roast beef, what would you pick? Just like boneless chicken breast, steamed broccoli should be hidden out of sight. If you want healthy veggies at your dinner party, roast them.
- Spicy Food
The success of a dinner party doesn’t just depend on the taste of the food your serve, but on the way the guests feel when they get home. If you don’t want your friends to remember the party as the time their stomachs went on fire, avoid spicy dishes.
