MOCK CHICKEN LEGS
When my Mom was little, she would have this as part of her birthday party picnic. With it would be potato salad, dressed up B&M beans, potato chips, watermelon, brownies, and her cucumbers. Her birthday is August 16, so she remembers how it was always really hot, yet her Mom would still prepare everything for her special day. She would make enough for 2 skewers per person, and with all of her family that meant feeding 12 people. The amount of meat I have listed is an estimate, as the paper this was originally written on didn't list specifics, so I don't know how much she bought to feed that many!
