LO's preschool is having a Holiday Program potluck tomorrow night. 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.
Any suggestions? I usually make buffalo dip, desserts or salads for potlucks!

homemade chicken nuggets/strips?
I would say mac-n-cheese but wouldn't consider that a main entree

For a work party one halloween I made sandwiches and then cut them with cookie cutters to make them festive. They were a big hit with the adults (and I bet kids would love them too)

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!

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.

Meatballs in teriyaki sauce (Trader Joe's mini meatballs are much beloved in our house), tortellini, mac n cheese? 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.

Thanks for the suggestions! I think I will make sandwiches! My mil is going to the dinner with me and she is making gyoza. (pot stickers)

veggie pizza is always easy and a fan favorite: cresent roll crust topped with ranch/cream cheese and veggies.

@autumnlove: http://www.food.com/recipe/pineapple-meatballs-17724
this is our "family recipe" except i use family style (not italian) meatballs from the store, frozen, and I use pineapple chunks, too, because i like big hunks of pineapple in the sauce.
