Whether your neighbor has decided to throw an impromptu holiday get-together or your husband just remembered this afternoon to tell you about this evening's Christmas party at your in-laws' house, these easy recipes will have you in and out of the kitchen quickly.
 | Potlucks are easy to organize and are not as much work as hosting a dinner all by yourself. Even better, potlucks encourage fellowship with friends and family through the sharing of new dishes and recipes. |
When it comes to potluck recipes, pasta dishes are always popular. They are so simple, nutritious, comforting and filling that it is hard to imagine potluck menus without them. |
 | Easy potluck recipes are often handed down from generation to generation. Chances are, your go-to potluck recipe is the same as the one your grandmother made, and for good reason-the recipe can be made quickly. |
 | The best potluck recipes are recipes that have history. While there is nothing wrong with adding a new recipe to the mix every now and again, when you hold a family potluck your guests will want the tried-and-true favorites. |
Having a potluck dinner is an easy way of hosting a party without having to do all of the cooking. But there are a few points you need to follow to avoid a menu full of potluck casseroles or desserts, not to mention unhappy guests. For example, your potluck will be a problem if more than half of the guests bring potato chips and the other three bring one dish that won't feed everyone. |
