Its a very laid back AHR we're doing it on a college football day, we're very big on our local university football, and we only live a block and a half from the stadium. So we're going to start early and have slideshow of our pics going, then when the game starts we'll play it. We're going to have a cake.
But I was thinking of doing a taco bar and if anyone else had done this and the price they may have spent for their taco bar. I'm for sure buying our meat (for burgers or taco bar) from Albertsons cause at night they have their ground beef $1.88 per pound so thats what i buy it for but figured I'd grab it all when its on sale. And we'll do the small tortilla shells not the large ones
We're expecting 80- 100 people right now but I have no idea how much meat to get, or cheese, lettuce, etc. I thought I'd ask some of you who may have had a taco bar and I know there are a couple catering girls on how much food do you think i need?

It was amazing! people loved it! They thought the theme was great! The food cost us $12.99 a person, they also provided set up, full linens and glass wear/silver wear. It was a bargain and the food was amazing!

We only have one place in town who does taco bars and they charge $8 per person so I'd be around $800 and I'm pretty sure I could buy all of my stuff and cook, well of course w/ the help of Joe's mom and spend less than $800 on tacos alone.
I think I might do up some tacos this weekend and see what we use.
Nachos is a good idea too! We would just add some chips and such and also have nachos! AWESOME!
