Make-ahead recipe suggestions for big family party?

[Rapunzel88]

I'm hosting a family party soon, 12 adults and 8 kids. Anyone got any recipe suggestions for two hot dishes I can make ahead and freeze- one vegi and one not? For the same crowd, I've previously made lasagne and moussaka, so want to give them something different. Thanks all.

My favourite - Nigel Slaters chicken in yoghurt- a huge hit when I did it for family ( you can leave out chilli powder if not wanted) - you prepare it the day before, and just cook on the day it uses whole chicken supremes, but I did it in chunks :) I have frozen it as well. or Nigella Lawsons chicken with 40 cloves of garlic - the one using chicken thighs- you can freeze it or make it the day before. Ratatouille for the vegetable one
