With all of the eating and Christmas/Holiday parties everyone has been going to-- I want to know what your favorite dish is to bring to a potluck/ finger food/ appetizer thing would be.

I always love the sweet and sour meatballs---- wait all year just ato have a few of those.

Well, to my family I'm known as the salad lady (among other things). When I bring a salad, it's filled with all types of dark, leafy lettuces and spinach, veggies such as cukes, broccoli, carrots and grape tomatoes. I always bring a few homemade salad dressings and extras such as garbanzo beans, croutans, blue cheese, etc.

I've been known to bring a taco pasta salad, another pasta salad with tortellini, peas, ham, swiss cheese and a ranch dressing, or asian cole slaw.

Warm spinach and artichoke dip, with pumpernickel bread.

Bud calls them reindeer balls.

It's a sausage/cheese /biscuit mix shaped in balls.

They are so good

We don't go to many holiday parties, so I couldn't say.

That's a hard one but probably an artichoke dip that I make.

writerlady · Thu Dec 18, 2008 10:54 am

Cheese and a variety of crackers, or baked ziti for a more substantial dish.

I make a sausage pepper meatball. Sausage, red & green peppers, egg and breadcrumbs. I salt & black pepper at the end so the juices doen't run out & dry them. Yum!

I've never been invited to a party.

We go to my mom's on xmas eve and she does the cooking, and on xmas, my hubby does the cooking. He's been a cook for years in resturants until he got his new job this past April.

I love spinach dip!

Renee · Thu Dec 18, 2008 11:14 am

I love dips! I make the spinach one in the bread bowl...people like that.

My Dad's girlfriend makes some really yummy dips! A buffalo chicken dip, a warm crab dip...YUM

In the winter months for parties or family gatherings, I am the Baked Mac and Cheese lady. During summer gatherings, I do make a 24 hour salad that is typically requested by my neices. As for what I wait for all year, is a crab dip my cousin makes and her coney sauce.

Spinach balls. My husband loves them, not sure how many other people like them.

scrapy1967 · Thu Dec 18, 2008 11:24 am

I take meatballs soaked in montgomery inn bbq sauce.

Firegems · Thu Dec 18, 2008 11:29 am

Sometimes a veggie pizza

DN in MN · Thu Dec 18, 2008 11:33 am

We call them heartattacks...

Little smokies wrapped in bacon and baked w/brown sugar

ScrapGoo · Thu Dec 18, 2008 11:38 am

Why, cupcakes, of course!

But in terms of savory items I have specific little meatballs and chicken wings that are often requested.

Well i don't cook, so I usually make something called Veggie Pizza. It's a cold pizza and really tasty! You have a cresent roll crust (you bake this before you put any toppings on), a layer of cream cheese & ranch spread over that then you put on veggies like cauliflower, broclli and carrots, then top with some shredded cheese. it is so tasty! At least everyone I know loves it!

Pecan pies made with splenda....really good, better than the regular ones and not as sweet.
