Question from a Bride and Groom . .

My future Mother-in-law is going to host a lunch on her sun porch after our 11AM wedding rehearsal.  Could you suggest two "make ahead" items.  One has to be a meatless recipe.

Response . .

Savory French Toast . . sliced Italian bread, chopped tomatoes, black olives, olive oil, eggs, feta cheese,  salt and pepper.

Shepherd's pie topped baked potatoes . . the potatoes can be baked ahead of time or microwaved in less than ten minutes.  Prepare a shepherd's pie filling of sauteed ground beef, peas and carrots (this can be made ahead and kept warm in a slow cooker).  Put a spoon full of sour cream on top of the Shepherd's pie mixture.

Serve with iced tea, lemonade or ice water. 

Dessert can be an assortment of brownies or homemade cookies.
