Question:

No time to cook anything, potluck dinner today. Any ideas?


Answers:
Yes!! Why not ask to bring dessert. You can go to the grocery store and buy a nice cake. Now if you have to make something you can make a fruit salad. But canned fruit , marshmellows, crushed pecans, and whipped cream and mix together in a bowl. You can also put shredded coconut in it. Dont forget to drain the juice from the fruit. Easy fast and delicious. Damn I feel like Martha Stewart..lol

Go to the market and get toss salad things, ot bagged cloeslaw and a jar od dressing...mix it up...takes 2 minutes. OR if you have a really nice market around...go buy some of their salads...

open a few cans and dump them into bowls.

Veggie tray with dip

Go but several boxes of Pop Tarts, different flavors. Cut them into 6 pieces each and put a toothpick in each one. I did this once and they were a hit.

Call McDonalds and ask them to cater, that works nice

meat loaf

get take out---go to tb

Mix up a box of instant vanilla pudding and slice a couple of bananas into it. Everyone loves banana pudding!

go to ur deli and buy something

Buy a prepared rotisserie chicken & a bag of prepared caesar salad. Tear meat off chicken & toss w/ salad, add some black olives & cherry tomatoes. Huge hit, I promise! :)

eat chinese [food]

buy some desserts at a local bakery or gourmet grocery - ice cream, petit fours, choco. cake. Or go buy a roast chicken if you want to get something main course wise.

pick something up at a nearby italian resto. you cant go wrong with italian cuisine.

Quick, buy a sack of frozen meatballs, add a jar of BBQ sauce, and a jar of grape jelly if you like (just BBQ sauce is fine too) and throw it all in the crock pot on High. you're ready to go in an hour, just bring the whole crock pot and plug it back in when you get there (on low now!)

go by KFC and get a bucket of chicken!

I would say : 'Every man for himself'

That's what we say when we don't have time! ( Every one gets their own)

Purchase a bag of salad, add tomatoes, purple onion, croutons
A fruit tray is usually a good choice.
Pick up a cake, cookies, or brownies at the bakery.
Take bread, chips and dips, or crackers.
