Recipe For Feeding The Homeless


Silver Post Medal for All Time! 288 Posts

It takes: 8 loves of bread, 3 gallons of tuna, 3 heads of lettuce and 2 quarts of mayonnaise for 100 sandwiches,

AND 4 -6 sets of caring hands.

The Churches in the area took turns making sandwiches for the homeless. My Mom gave me the recipe to pass along several years ago.

I feed 60-75 homeless women per day, Monday thru Friday. Because it was very hot this week, we had "cool" meals: leftover chicken in BBQ sauce on a bun (with salad); chili dogs and salad; fish, rice and a cold corn salad, turkey breast and roast beef wraps, stuffed with zucchini, cucumber and carrots; and tomorrow we're having sausages and a cold pasta salad. Tuna sandwiches are great, but there's an endless possibility for variation. If anyone out there needs recipes for a crowd, just let me know.

Thanks for offering to share your knowledge of how much to cook for a crowd. I would like to cook chilli con carne and corn bread for 40 people at a shelter. I am not sure how much ground beef, kidney beans, tomato puree to buy for the chilli con carne and how many 9x13 pans of corn bread I should bake.

Trying to fix meals for around 60 homeless. What can I fix during this summer. Needs to be cheap as well as not too time consuming.

Were starting a soup kitchen in Chickasha OK and were trying to put together nutritious, healthy meals. Would you mind sharing your recipes? Thank You Suzanne

Hi, I'm want to feed a group of homeless people. I think they said it's at least 25, but I would like to make a little extra in case it's like 50 or something. I don't want to have too much, but I also don't want to have too less. I'm a on a very small budget and I've been racking my brains out trying to find meals that would feed everyone and that is also cheap.

If I had more money to spare, I wouldn't be so concerned, but I am trying to do what I can just to help them out. I need ideas for hot and cold meals, breakfast and lunch. Thank you so much.

Hey, I'm using this meal for an assignment as I'm doing it about a nutritious meal to feed the homeless. Whats the name for this meal?

It's a good recipe. Peanut butter sandwiches, and peanut butter and jelly would be good too. I like this direct approach. I am going to organize this in my corner of the world, up near Boston. Thanks for the thought, Great Granny.

Josie,
I would be most grateful for any recipes for feeding a crowd. Our church is now feeding between 55-75 homeless people every other week, and I am running out of ideas. Thanks so much, Connie
