Another thing you can do in advance is savoury cups, or vol au vents (sp?). You can get some filo cut it out and put into mini muffin tins, once cooked cool and store till the day, then fill with whatever you like avocado & chicken & pine nuts, salsa & cheese & chicken, whatever and with the vol au vent you can make like a hot cheesey bacony onion sauce ie more bacon & cheese & onion than sauce LOL fill the pastries and grill the tops or even just serve them that way. Or make up a thick mushroom sauce, YUM!
