I would probably make: cassoulet & salad, homemade quiche and salad or red beans and rice and salad.

Cassoulet

3 lbs white northern beans
smoked sausage
chicken thighs
onion
garlic
tomato paste
bouquet garni
croutons or bread crumbs

Quiche

cheese
eggs
half & half
bacon or ham (optional)

Crust
flour
shortening
salt
water

Red Beans & Rice

Dried kidney beans
onion
green pepper
garlic
bacon
smoked sausage
herbs
rice

Cornbread

flour
cornmeal
salt
milk
baking powder
shortening
eggs
sugar

Salad dressing

Oil
Vinegar

I'm sorry, I don't know the individual cost of each of the above items but I know I can make each of these meals for less than $10 for 20 people. I would get the lettuce and tomato from my garden. To drink, I would serve water with a slice of lemon.
