Tortellini would be easy since they don't have to stay super hot. Just toss them in some olive oil and put some parm cheese on when you arrive. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/potluck-ideas-for-a-child-friendly-dinner#post-1980490 Thu, 11 Dec 2014 13:12:43 +0000 cheert16 1980490@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>meatballs and red sauce? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/potluck-ideas-for-a-child-friendly-dinner#post-1980488 Thu, 11 Dec 2014 13:12:10 +0000 sarac 1980488@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yeah, I second cute little sandwiches. You could do all sorts of fun things for adults with meat and cheese, and then some simpler for the kids, with maybe fruit flavored cream cheese or something neat like that. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/potluck-ideas-for-a-child-friendly-dinner#post-1980481 Thu, 11 Dec 2014 13:11:00 +0000 youboots 1980481@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Or mini sweet and sour meatballs (not sure if this is right for the age) but I love cocktail meatballs from TJ's with a can of sweet and sour in the croc pot. So good! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/potluck-ideas-for-a-child-friendly-dinner#post-1980461 Thu, 11 Dec 2014 13:01:58 +0000 yellowbird 1980461@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@autumnlove: crockpot mac and cheese?? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/potluck-ideas-for-a-child-friendly-dinner#post-1980460 Thu, 11 Dec 2014 13:01:23 +0000 youboots 1980460@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>English muffin pizzas?

I need to bring in a dish to share with 10-12 people. They want main entrees (child friendly preferred, no nuts) and dessert will be provided.</p> <p>Any suggestions? I usually make buffalo dip, desserts or salads for potlucks! :P </p>
