What is your best potluck recipe?

I frequently end up at potluck functions with the same people over and over. I've brought my dishes over and over, and any new ideas I get are from those same people. I could really use some new, sure-fire recipes! Salads, main dishes, deserts- whatever!What is your best potluck recipe?
hey... nice name :o)





Try this





1 pkg cream cheese


1 pkg sour cream (small)


1 bag of shrimp (750 g if my memory is good)


seafood sauce


shredded cheese








in a 9*13 pyrex pan





First in a bowl combine cream cheeze and sour cream, beat until smooth, cover the bottom of your pan. then layer seafood sauce, shrimps, oignons and green peppers and shredded cheese, I use the kraft Tex-mex but you can use mozzarella too or cheddar whatever you prefer. serve with tostito rounds or scoops or whater ;o))





or same base with the cream cheese and sour cream but then layer





ground beef


salsa


and cheese





It's a hit every single timeWhat is your best potluck recipe?
You could try brownies, chips and salsa, deviled eggs, ham rollups (cream cheese and sour cream mixed with powdered ranch dressing mix, spread on deli ham slices, rolled up and cut into pieces). It really depends on if you are having a theme potluck or what. I always make something different, so I'm not exactly sure what else to tell you.
#1-


Zucchini Casserole (6-8 servings)


2 small zucchini, thinly sliced


1 cup carrots, chopped


1 lg onion, chopped


1 1/2 lb lean ground turkey


1 cup sour cream (light is ok)


1 can cream of mushroom soup


1 6 oz box of Stove Top (I use the kind with the rice)





Cook veggies in boiling water for about 5 minutes or til tender; drain and set aside. Brown meat with salt and pepper. Prepare stuffing mix according to directions. Spread half of meat on bottom of 13x9 pan and top with half the stuffing. Combine zucchini mixture with soup and sour cream; pour over stuffing. Add rest of meat, then top with remaining stuffing. Bake 45 minutes at 350. (Can be frozen before baking.)





#2 - This one's good for turkey leftovers


Turkey Normandy


1 sm bag Pepperidge Farm stuffing mix


3/4 cup melted butter


2 1/2 cups cooked, diced turkey


1/4 cup chopped celery


1/2 cup chopped onion


1/2 cup mayo


2 eggs


1 1/2 cups milk


1/2 cup cream of mushroom soup


8 oz shredded cheddar





Melt butter and mix with stuffing. Put 1/2 stuffing mixture into a 13x9 pan. Mix together onion, celery, turkey and mayo. Add to stuffing. Beat together the eggs and milk and pour over turkey mixture. Cover with rest of stuffing and the cream of mushroom soup. Refrigerate overnight. Bake at 350 for 50 minutes. Top with cheese and bake 10 minutes longer.





*I know...both call for cream-of-mushroom soup and both are fattening, but they are good! :)
