Autumnbear:
I'm a chef by trade and catered a viking feast for friends. Traditional Viking food was pretty dismal so I cooked some Scandinavian classics. Potato/leek soup with smoked salmon, Swedish meatballs, roast pork ribs with loganberry/port glaze, elk sausage, baby potatoes with fresh herbs, red cabbage braised in red wine vinegar, brown sugar and apples.

If that does not help PM me Brother.

Dane:
I've done a number of historic feasts, including Roman and Elizabethan for a local university.

I concur, what we know of Vikiing cuisine is not appealing. But, some general medieval dishes might do the trick, as there was a great deal of cross-cultural contact between the Norse and other peoples, and I imagine they ate much better than we think, and had access to a great many trade goods, and slaves who knew how to cook must have been put to work on some farms.

I can give you a list of historic cookbooks available in print, or send you some recipes, as well, just let me know.

Hillbilly:
Large amounts of preferably forcibly stolen meat and mead would be a good start.
