Your Ultimate Guide to Communion Food!
That time of year again is officially upon us...it's Communion season!
One commonly asked question regarding communions is "should I hire a professional caterer?". Depending on your guest numbers, you may be considering hiring a caterer for your child’s communion. Arranging and cooking all of the food for your guests yourself can be daunting, and it’s easy to underestimate the time and preparation that needs to be allocated to catering an event yourself.
There are countless things you’ll be thinking about on the day itself before even considering your menu, including ensuring your child and your family are ready in good time.
This is one of the reasons why a professional caterer is an ideal choice, helping to alleviate any additional stress you may have about organising feeding your guests. If you need any caterer recommendations, our dedicated team are delighted to share recommendations, simply call us at (01) 295 3821.
Self-catering
If you do choose to self-cater your child’s Communion, we recommend choosing a fuss-free yet popular, diverse menu. A buffet is a good choice as your guests will be able to choose their portion sizes and self-serve dishes that appeal to them. Just be sure to label any common allergen ingredients on any applicable dishes!
We recommend:
- 4 main dishes (or 2 mains and 2 cold meats)
- 3 sides (such as potatoes, rice and pasta)
- 4 salads
- 4 desserts.
Here are some easy and tasty main options…
- Coronation Chicken
- Vegan Chilli
- Chicken Piri Piri Tray Bake
- Tuna Pasta Bake
- Indian Chicken Curry
- Potluck Macaroni & Cheese
