If you are planning to attend a funeral and want to send a sympathy meal to the family, be sure to consider some of these easy options to help you if you are in a hurry. 

When it comes time to attend funeral homes in Indianapolis, IN, you may also be invited to a reception or the family may even host a dinner at the funeral home following the memorial service. If you want to provide the family with a meal but don’t have time to make a meal or don’t cook, you can still come up with something to send them. These meals are all things you can order or buy that are sure to please anyone and help the family have more food to serve at the funeral reception or enjoy themselves. 


Pizza


Pizza might not be the first thing you think of when you think of meals for a funeral home or a reception, but it’s something you can order and pick up quickly if you are in a hurry. Almost everyone likes pizza and if you are just looking to provide a meal for a family, it can be a good option. You can order several different kinds and deliver them yourself or pay to have them delivered to the family’s home. Pizza is a great option for families with children who may not like other foods or who are picky eaters. 


Chicken 


Fried chicken is a popular food to take to funeral homes and receptions. You can find family orders of fried chicken at many different restaurants and even some gas stations. It’s a satisfying meal that can serve a lot of people and that is affordable. You can also easily pair chicken with other foods and side dishes so it’s ideal for potlucks. You can order the chicken ahead of time and pick it up after the funeral. You can even find chicken at your grocery store deli that is already prepared and just waiting to be picked up. 


Subs 


Subs are hearty and satisfying. You can order them from many restaurants and caterers. Subs are affordable because they can be divided into small portions so several people can eat from one sub. You can also find restaurants that make large subs that are meant to be shared by large crowds. If you don’t want to serve the sandwiches already made, you order sub toppings and deliver them to the family where they and their guests can make their own sandwiches as they like them. This can also be a good way to serve a large crowd of picky eaters.
