Office Pot Luck (Page 2)

There's a guy at my office who makes the best homemade pizzas.  I'm bummed I switched departments and will not be invited to the holiday party for his group anymore!

When I lived in Colorado I used to make a crockpot full of green chile for holiday parties.  The entire thing would be gone in minutes.

For something healthy, I make Quinoa Party Salad. 2 cups quinoa 1/4 c olive oiljuice 1 lime1 T ground cumin 3 c thawed corn kernals1 15 oz bpa free can black beans1 med red bell pepper1 med orange bell pepper1 jalepeno pepper seeded1 c fresh cilantrosea salt & gr pepper to taste Wash 2 c quinoa & drain. Cook in 4 cups boiling water. Set aside and let cool.Chop vegetables (I used all organic)Make dressing: olive oil, pepper flakes, lime juice and cuminCombine veggies and cilantro and quinoa then toss with dressing and enjoy.

If it's a pot luck, shouldn't someone bring pot?

My husband and I went to a potluck with his coworkers last weekend- things had to be vegetarian-I made chana masala, homemade naan bread and rice. It went over really well. I just made the sauce in the pan like I normally do, threw chickpeas in for a tiny second, gave it a 2 hr ride in the crock pot, then transported it in the crock pot and set it on "warm" so it would remain so during the party.

Not even sure what SMP is, so I guess not?

Chili seems popular, as is gumbo.  I usually do a soup, either NE Clam Chowder, Macaroni and Beer Cheese Soup with Bacon, or my personal favorite, Kansas City Steak soup. My suggestions seem to skew towards a crock pot.

I always make a baked macaroni and cheese with a crunchy breadcrumb topping. It's a crowd-pleaser.

OMFG I am starving now for a late night snack.. thanks guys
