I've heard of several different versions. I use black eyed peas, shoe peg corn, one small diced tomato, cilantro, and italian dressing. We eat it with tostitos scoops! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-bring-to-potlucks#post-424235 Thu, 29 Nov 2012 23:48:53 +0000 tororojo 424235@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm a dessert person!

I love it! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-bring-to-potlucks#post-424229 Thu, 29 Nov 2012 23:47:17 +0000 Mrs. Pen 424229@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>It's different every time! Last summer I always brought a strawberry, walnut and feta cheese salad with a homemade strawberry balsamic dressing.</p> <p>For thanksgiving this year I made a paleo pumpkin pie and a squash, apple and cranberry bake.</p> <p>DH is notorious for his mashed potatoes so that's a common dish as well. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-bring-to-potlucks#post-424219 Thu, 29 Nov 2012 23:45:20 +0000 shopaholic 424219@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I like to bring some kind of veggie or fruit usually because I find there's never enough at potlucks! I especially love Caprese Salad and a bowl of diced watermelon. Those always get eaten. I also make pasta dishes sometimes. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-bring-to-potlucks#post-424178 Thu, 29 Nov 2012 23:13:54 +0000 SweetMamaM 424178@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Appetizers definitely - most popular to date are prunes wrapped in chicken bacon, cheese ball, salmon dip (fondly referred to as fish goo) and Southland rolls.<br /> Me and my close girlfriends do monthly themed pot lucks so that's encouraging us all to branch out and try new recipes! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-bring-to-potlucks#post-424033 Thu, 29 Nov 2012 22:23:30 +0000 autumnlove 424033@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I usually bring desserts! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-bring-to-potlucks#post-423994 Thu, 29 Nov 2012 22:16:43 +0000 Meridian 423994@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We usually bring something different every time! In the past, we've brought lasagna, pulled pork sliders, mac n cheese, pot roast, various desserts... we've got a potluck in 2 weeks and I'm thinking of bringing a jambalaya. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-bring-to-potlucks#post-423914 Thu, 29 Nov 2012 21:58:02 +0000 Alivoo01 423914@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We bring whatever is needed, usually it's meat or dessert. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-bring-to-potlucks#post-423847 Thu, 29 Nov 2012 21:48:02 +0000 Baby Boy Mom 423847@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Usually dessert- some type of cake. Occasionally a salad or something else veggie if I'm concerned there might not be much else I'll want to eat. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-bring-to-potlucks#post-423830 Thu, 29 Nov 2012 21:44:47 +0000 mrstilly 423830@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We have lot lucks at work every other month or so. I alternate between drinks or sweet and sour meatballs. I don't cook at all and the sauce for the meatballs only has two ingredients that you just dump over the meatballs in the slow cooker. (Chili sauce and grape jelly, 12 oz of each.) Everyone at work loves them. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-bring-to-potlucks#post-423700 Thu, 29 Nov 2012 21:22:49 +0000 MediaNaranja 423700@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@junebugmama: Oh, that sounds yummy :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-bring-to-potlucks#post-423685 Thu, 29 Nov 2012 21:20:49 +0000 DigAPony 423685@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My stand-by is a cheese ball and crackers. A lot of our friends are vegetarian and/or gluten-free, so this is one of the few dishes that everyone can eat (rice crackers for the GF folk of course). I use my grandma's recipe and it is delicious. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-bring-to-potlucks#post-423675 Thu, 29 Nov 2012 21:17:38 +0000 junebugmama 423675@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MediaNaranja: It's basically a chunky type of salsa. It's very simple, but everyone loves it. It's really strange. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-bring-to-potlucks#post-423673 Thu, 29 Nov 2012 21:17:23 +0000 prettylizy 423673@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My fave to bring is pulled pork in the slow cooker and buns. Everybody loves a pulled pork sandwich. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-bring-to-potlucks#post-423669 Thu, 29 Nov 2012 21:16:31 +0000 MediaNaranja 423669@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@junebugmama: What is Texas caviar?</p> <p>I like to bring appetizers, but I have a pot luck next week and I think I will make some pumpkin-pie brownies :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-bring-to-potlucks#post-423646 Thu, 29 Nov 2012 21:11:57 +0000 junebugmama 423646@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>People always tell me what to bring. They usual requests are buffalo chicken wontons, texas caviar, or these little toasts I make that have fig jam, proscuitto, blue cheese, and a balsamic reduction. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-bring-to-potlucks#post-423623 Thu, 29 Nov 2012 21:05:53 +0000 chopsuey 423623@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Oooh.
