We're going to the lake this weekend for 4th of July. Each couple is in charge of one meal. I have Friday night.
It's supposed to feed 12 people. Does anyone have any good ideas?

Cheap, fast, as well as filling and low calorie would be amazing!!
Thank you guys!

    I did fajitas for 8 last week for a sailboat racing event and it was a hit! To feed 12 I would buy about 6 lbs of chicken breasts and cut into strips, saute with spice (cumin, chili powder, chipotle...whatever you're in to) and lime. Separately, I sauteed different colored bell peppers, mushrooms and onions with their own spices and some soy sauce. I did all this the night before and put them in two 9 x 13 casserole pans. When it was ready to serve, I placed the pans on the grill (they were aluminum) to heat and just served up with tortillas, sour cream, salsa and shredded cheese. Super easy and make ahead!

    Good luck and Happy 4th!
