help with baby shower menu

[Deleted]

I a hosting a baby shower for my niece and we know we are going to have a salad bar .
I am looking for input as to what items to have on it.
I know the usual lettuce ( several types) tomatos, cucumbers, carrots, etc... but what else would you have?
I am thinking a pasta salad, some sort of bean salad, grilled chicken, cheese.
What else?

There will also be some sort of rolls or crossants, and a fruit salad.

I think a salad bar is a great idea for a shower.

Things that I add to a salad that you did not list: edamame, green peas, bell pepper (red or green), chickpeas, croutons, bacon, sunflower seeds, dried cranberries.

What about tuna/salmon? Hardboiled eggs? pecans or walnuts?

[jennistarr1]

different cheeses, olives, beets

maybe visit a salad bar and get some ideas, some things may not be worth it based on price and how many people will eat them.

Fruit! sliced strawberries, orange sections, fresh blueberries and cubed honeydew mix well with different greens.

I would have a couple of proteins- chicken, egg, shrimp. Garbanzo beans, peas, beets, mushrooms. I'd also have some crunchy things- croutons, sunflower seeds, nuts.
