Keep it Simple
If you follow the Passover Seder traditionally and meticulously by the time you arrive at the main meal, called Shulchan Orech in the Haggadah, people will be far from starving. They may not even be entirely hungry. So don't overdo your menu.

Roasted Meats on Passover

During Passovers of long ago, the Jewish people would bring the Passover sacrifice to the Beit Hamikdash, and then roast and eat the meat for the Seder meal. Today, many refrain from roasting meat at the Seder so no one should think we are trying to replace the Pesach sacrifice. For this reason my favorite Seder mains are cooked with additional liquid or sauce.

I've kept my comments brief so you can get to planning, shopping and cooking quickly.
