Macaroni %26amp; smoke gouda
Ingredients
6 cups water
1 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon vegetable oil
1 pound ditalini or small elbow macaroni
2 tablespoons plus 1/2 teaspoon unsalted butter
2 tablespoons bleached all-purpose flour
2 1/2 cups milk
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground white pepper
1/4 pound smoked Gouda cheese, grated
Italian flat-leaf parsley to garnish
Method
Preheat the oven to 375.
Put the water, 1/2 teaspoon of the salt, and the oil in a large, heavy saucepan over high heat and bring to a boil. Add the macaroni and cook, stirring occasionally, until tender, about 8 minutes. In a small, heavy saucepan, melt 2 tablespoons of the butter over medium heat. Add the flour and cook, stirring constantly, for 2 minutes. Slowly add the milk, whisking constantly. Add the remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt and the white pepper and continue whisking until the sauce is smooth and thick enough to coat the back of a wooden spoon, about 8 minutes. Remove the white sauce from the heat and stir in the cheese. Continue stirring until the cheese melts. Lightly grease a 6 1/2 by 10-inch casserole dish with the remaining 1/2 teaspoon butter. Combine the cheese sauce and macaroni in a large mixing bowl and mix well. Pour into the prepared casserole and bake until lightly golden on top, about 20 minutes. Remove from the oven and let rest for 5 minutes before serving hot.Family potluck dinner this weekend...baked macaroni and cheese recipe? please?

Potluck help!! i need a good quick recipe for appetizers! does anyone have any?
i want something quick and easy! if possible something spicy! if not that's ok but anything will help! no spinach dip or salsa please those are already taken on the list! :)Potluck help!! i need a good quick recipe for appetizers! does anyone have any?
I've got a great, simple recipe for a cheese log that's always a huge hit. Now don't judge until you've read the entire recipe. People rave about this log, and it never fails that they think it's some imported specialty cheese... when in fact it starts out as Velveta.
- 1 sm. package of (unsliced) Velveta cheese (makes 2 logs, or the really little package makes one.. Sorry.. I forget the ounces)
- chopped walnuts
- garlic powder (NOT garlic salt!!!)
Bring cheese to room temperature. Using desired amounts (be generous with garlic powder of the above ingredients, mix all together well with hands.
1 Tablespoon (or equal parts), mixed together:
- paprika (good mild Hungarian paprika is best)
- chili powder
- nutmeg
Lay out a piece of waxed paper
- If making 2 logs, break mixture in half.
- Roll one have into about a 6-inch log
- Spread seasoning mixture out on waxed paper and roll log in mixture, making sure to coat entire surface, including the ends
- Shape the other log and roll in mixture
- wrap each in plastic wrap and put in a container or wrap again in foil.
This is a cheese spread, not something that should be sliced, so be sure log is brought out at least 1/2 before serving so that it's spreadable. If people slice it, they tend to slice giant chunks.
Put on a tray with crackers and a few small cheese spreaders.
I guarantee you, this is always a hit, and it's different. The flavor is amazing. There's never any left no matter where I serve it.Potluck help!! i need a good quick recipe for appetizers! does anyone have any?
A friend used to make Snausages. Basically cooked spicy Italian sausage (bulk, crumbled) with Velveeta. It looks gross and needs to be in a crock pot but people loved it. Serve with crackers or cocktail rye.
Even though someone took salsa, a hot con queso dip would be nice. Same deal, spicy salsa and velveeta.
I make a layered dip. On a platter spread refried beans (mix in hot sauce if you like) top with sour cream and shredded cheese. Sprinkle with olives, scallions and chopped tomatoes and jalapenos if you like.
Oh, and a really easy one is spread cream cheese in a pie plate, top with canned chili and shredded cheese and bake at 300 for 20 minutes or so to heat through, I've even nuked it at half power until it was hot.
Salmon Dip (always a fav at my house)
1 8oz block of cream cheese
1 can of smokes salmon (or regular canned salmon and liquid smoke to taste)
green onions
garlic salt
fresh jalapeno (optional)
Mix together and let sit for at least an hour. Serve with crackers and veggies.
Stuffed cherry tomatoes . Stuffed with goat cheese.
Just scrape out the inside of the tomatoe and fill with Goat cheese top with some bread crumbs(optional)
bake on 400 for 10 min
they are terrific and they look great!!!
SO SIMPLE
How about some pinto beans with pork and green chili?
Or bean soup with jalapeno?
Most potlucks I go to have beans, and they tend to go fast!
I kind of agree with the little smokies in BBQ sauce. Use a crock pot and get some frilly toothpicks to get them out of the pot.
little smokies wrapped in bacon throw them in some crockpot with brown sugar thier done when the sugar carmelizers oooh so good
Little smokies wrapped in bacon. sprinkle brown sugar over and bake for 30-45 minutes. Delicious!eczema treatment

Potluck Recipes?
So we are having a potluck here at work.... babyshower potluck.... The boss is bringing ham and turkey.... what should I bring? Any good ideas and easy recipes?? something economical...im on a budget....Potluck Recipes?
For a work potluck, you want something that is simple to prepare and can be brought and served without much extra heating or prep. Something that a lot of people enjoy and usually goes really quickly is a cold pasta salad. I know that's seemingly boring, but my husband and I remember many work parties where the pasta salad is the biggest hit. Try one with rigatoni noodles (veggie or plain), cheddar cheese chunks, diced red bell peppers, sliced pepperoni, lightly steamed broccoli, and italian dressing. Simple and really good!Potluck Recipes?
Who's in charge of cake or desert? Anyone? If not why not do a sheet cake or cupcakes...new cookie icings make it a snap to decorate (Betty Crocker tube or can and tips included)
If someone is doing a cake or something special then I suggest a simple sweet potato casserole...easy inexpensive and it goes great with ham %26amp; turkey
deviled eggs are always popular and cheap to make
Here's a great recipe I got from the Uncle Ben's site some time ago...but can't find it there now:

4. Combine oil %26amp; vinegar, stir into rice. Add onion %26amp; celery, mix well.

Ideas for ham recipe for potluck?
The company potluck is coming up. I have to be at work at 9 and we eat at noon. I'm supposed to make the ham, but don't want to get up in the middle of the night to put it in the oven. I experimented with a ';crock pot'; ham recipe I foind online, but it turned out stringy like a pot roast and not solid like ham is from the oven. Do you think I could cut the ham into slices and bake it in the oven while I get ready for work? Surely it wouldn't take as long because it wouldn't be a ';whole ham';. Any ideas?Ideas for ham recipe for potluck?

POTLUCK HAM CASSEROLE
1/2 c. cream of mushroom soup
2 tsp. prepared mustard
1 tsp. minced onion
1 c. sour cream
1/8 tsp. pepper
8 oz. cooked noodles
2 c. diced ham
1/4 c. slivered almonds
Make sauce of first 5 ingredients.
In 2 quart casserole, place layer of half of cooked noodles. Cover with half of sauce. Repeat with second half. Top with slivered almonds.
Bake for 25-30 minutes at 325 degrees F.

(*-*)Ideas for ham recipe for potluck?
You can buy a cured ham, which is already cooked. It just needs heated through. Take a large roasting pan and pour in a can of dr. pepper. Rub dijon mustard, brown sugar and salt and pepper over the entire ham (coat the ham) Take sliced pinapples and pin them to the ham with whole cloves and toothpick a few cherries in the center of the pinapple rings. It makes a wonderful ham and should only take about an hour :)
This is how I would take your ham to work. Purchase a spiral ham (precut). Cook it per the package instructions. Slice and place in crock pot and put in fridge. Next morning plug it in at work and leave on low or warm and it will be ready for you at lunch. Nice hot sliced ham.
Ham reheats very well. I would cook it the night before.
Then in the morning, slice it and re-heat it in the oven (covered).
It's a little bit more money, but buy a honey baked spiral ham. They take like an hour to heat up and then you can put it in the crock pop to keep it warm.

Cut butter into potatoes. Mix rest of ingredients together; pour over top of potatoes. Toss. *1/4 - 3/4 c. milk can be used in place of one-half of the sour cream.

Nanaimo bar - A dessert made from three layers. At the bottom is a crumb layer (made from coconut, nuts and wafer crumbs), on top of this is a layer of vanilla custard, and this is topped by a layer of chocolate.
These are so yummy!
http://www.joyofbaking.com/NanaimoBars.h鈥?/a>
Nanaimo Bars
Bottom Layer:
1/2 cup (1 stick) (113 grams) unsalted butter, room temperature
1/4 cup (50 grams) granulated white sugar
1/3 cup (30 grams) unsweetened cocoa (I use Dutch-processed)
1 large egg, beaten
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
2 cups (200 grams) graham cracker crumbs
1 cup (65 grams) coconut (either sweetened or unsweetened)
1/2 cup (50 grams) walnuts or pecans, coarsely chopped
FILLING:
1/4 cup (56 grams) unsalted butter, room temperature
2 - 3 tablespoons milk or cream
2 tablespoons vanilla custard powder (Bird's) or vanilla pudding powder
1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
2 cups (230 grams) powdered sugar (confectioners or icing) sugar
TOPPING:
4 ounces (115 grams) semisweet chocolate, chopped
1 tablespoon (14 grams) unsalted butter
Butter (or use a cooking spray) a 9 x 9 inch (23 x 23 cm) pan.
BOTTOM LAYER: In a saucepan over low heat, melt the butter. Stir in the sugar and cocoa powder and then gradually whisk in the beaten egg. Cook, stirring constantly, until the mixture thickens (1 - 2 minutes). Remove from heat and stir in the vanilla extract, graham cracker crumbs, coconut, and chopped nuts. Press the mixture evenly into the prepared pan. Cover and refrigerate until firm (about an hour).
FILLING: In your electric mixer cream the butter. Beat in the remaining ingredients. If the mixture is too thick to spread, add a little more milk. Spread the filling over the bottom layer, cover, and refrigerate until firm (about 30 minutes).
TOP LAYER: In a heatproof bowl over a saucepan of simmering water, melt the chocolate and butter. Spread over the filling and refrigerate.
TO SERVE: To prevent the chocolate from cracking, using a sharp knife, bring the squares to room temperature before cutting.
Yield: Makes about 25 squares

Leek and Canadian Bacon Quiche
you could use a premade pie crust if you want
Ingredients:
For the pastry:
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 tsp. salt
4 Tbs. (1/2 stick) chilled unsalted butter
1/4 cup vegetable shortening
3 to 4 Tbs. cold water
For the filling:
6 slices Canadian bacon, cut into strips 1 inch
long by 1/4 inch wide
1 Tbs. unsalted butter
1 leek, including tender green portions, carefully
washed and cut crosswise into slices 1/4 inch
thick
3 eggs
1 1/2 cups half-and-half
1/4 tsp. salt
1/4 tsp. freshly ground pepper
6 oz. Gruy猫re or Jarlsberg cheese, shredded
1 1/2 tsp. cornstarch
Directions:
To make the pastry, in a bowl, stir together the flour and salt. Add the butter and shortening and, using a pastry blender or 2 knives, cut in the butter and shortening until the mixture resembles coarse bread crumbs. Sprinkle in the water 1 Tbs. at a time, stirring gently with a fork after each addition and adding only enough of the water to form a rough mass.
Using floured hands, pat the dough into a smooth, round flattened disk. Use immediately or cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for up to 2 days.
Preheat an oven to 425潞F.
On a lightly floured work surface, roll out the pastry dough into a 12-inch round. Drape the pastry over the rolling pin and carefully transfer to a 9-inch tart pan with a removable bottom. Gently ease the pastry into the pan. Trim the pastry even with the pan rim.
Prick the bottom and sides of the pastry shell with a fork. Form a double-thick 12-inch square of aluminum foil, poke a few holes in it, then press it into the pastry-lined pan. Bake the pastry for 8 minutes. Remove the foil and bake until the pastry looks dry but not brown, about 4 minutes more. Remove from the oven; reduce the temperature to 325潞F.
To make the filling, in a nonstick fry pan over medium heat, saut茅 the Canadian bacon until it begins to brown, 2 to 3 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, transfer the bacon to paper towels to drain. Pour off the fat, reduce the heat to medium-low and melt the butter in the pan. Add the leek and saut茅, stirring frequently, until tender, about 10 minutes. Set aside.
In a bowl, using a fork, beat the eggs until lightly frothy. Stir in the half-and-half, salt and pepper. In another bowl, toss the cheese with the cornstarch. Add the cheese, bacon and leek to the egg mixture and stir well. Pour into the pastry shell.
Bake until a knife inserted into the center comes out clean, 35 to 40 minutes. If the edges are browning too quickly, cover them with strips of aluminum foil.
Transfer the pan to a wire rack and let cool for 15 minutes. Remove the pan rim and place the quiche on a serving plate. Serve warm. Makes one 9-inch quiche; serves 4 to 6.
don't know how much you need to make but this is Canadian and the measurements are for one gallon:
sausage %26amp; cheese soup:
24oz beer or stout
1qt. heavy cream
1qt. chicken broth
3 carrots diced small (1/4 inch)
1 large onion diced small
3cups potatoes diced small
2tsp each thyme, minced garlic, black pepper
3cups kielbasa cooked and diced medium size (1/2 inch)
1 1/2 lb shredded sharp cheddar cheese
in a 4qt stock bring stout to a boil, then add cream and broth.
heat to simmer and add thyme, garlic, pepper.
Then slowly add shredded cheese stirring constantly with a whisk until cheese is melted and sauce is creamy and smooth. remove from heat and cover.
in a separate pan steam onion, carrot, and potato with water and a little salt until they are done but still firm drain and add to sauce.
in same pan warm sausage and add to soup. stir well.
if soup needs to be thickened place back on heat bring to high simmer and add corn starch to desired consistency. if thinned simply stir in warmed milk to desired consistency.
can be transferred to crock pot and warmed for party without fear of scorching.
add to presentation by slivering red, yellow, orange and green peppers and stirring them into the soup right before serving so they will remain crisp and distinctive in flavor.

Combine the butter, cream cheese, and 1 cup of the flour in a small bowl. Mix with a pastry blender or fork, cutting the butter and cream cheese into the flour until a consistently crumbly mixture is formed.
Place the flour mixture in a 10'; pie plate or quiche pan, and press evenly to form a crust. Refrigerate. Pre-heat the oven to 350掳F.
Cook the spinach in a pot of lightly salted boiling water, drain well, and chop. Drain the spinach again on paper towels to remove all excess moisture.
In a large bowl, combine the spinach with the two tablespoons flour. Add the cheddar and Swiss cheeses, eggs, mayonnaise, milk, bacon bits or crumbled bacon, mushrooms, and green onions.
Pour the mixture into the chilled pastry shell and bake for 1 hour, or until set. Serve warm.

Breakfast pizza! It is pretty simple and not too much money.
Crust is biscuit (I get the refrigerated kind flatten it on a pizza pan or cookie sheet)

I make a very easy but, impressive sausage/bread braid...
It uses pillsbury cresant dough, bulk rolled sausage, cream chease and some green pepper/onion... Take the dough and unroll it onto a baking sheet seal up the perforations so it's a rectangle.. and roll it into a thin rectangle... Put in fridge to keep cold. Cook sausage, 1/2 green pepper/onion and add 1/2 block of cream cheese. Let cool... Put in middle of rectangle leaving room along the sides/edges of rectangle... With a knife cut 1/2 inch strips and ';braid'; over the sausage mixture.. It's very, very easy... and looks so pretty... Brush with egg wash and bake until golden brown ! I know this sounds hard but its really not.. it's takes minimal effort and looks fantastic... don't worry if the strips break just reattach and layer over sausage... good luck

Potluck recipe on a budget?
I'm going to a potluck party this Sunday afternoon and need ideas for what to bring. It's going to be a group of 15-20 at most, and the hostess is going to be making grilled cream cheese-stuffed peppers. I'm a college student (as most of the guests will be, though of varying ages), so my funds are rather limited, but we are a fairly health-conscious group and so would like to bring something that's tasty and non-junk food. I'm leaning a bit toward handling the dessert end of things, but not sure what would work well for that?
Anyone got any ideas?
Thanks!Potluck recipe on a budget?
slice some fruits and put them on a platter, in the middle of the platter place a little bowl %26amp; mix some vanilla yogurt with a little bit of cinnamon. Potluck recipe on a budget?
Hollow out half of a watermelon ... then refill with the cubed melon, strawberries %26amp; blueberries, pineapple chunks (even the canned ones in water are fine, if drained), maybe some cantaloupe chunks, grapes... garnish with a sliced starfruit and fresh mint sprigs
Buy or make an Angel Food cake; bring some Cool Whip and sliced strawberries to put on top. Very low fat, and relatively low in sugar, carbs %26amp; calories.....
A spinach, cranberry, mushroom, walnut, onion salad with a vinaigrette is always great. The flavors are perfectly matched with a raspberry vinaigrette.
Make a large bowl of fruit salad. Or bring a veggie plattter and veggie or spinach dip. Make a large pan of macaroni/tuna salad or potato salad.
Goggle budget meals. Lots of ideas.

1-1/2 cups fat free milk
1 pkg of instant sugar free pudding (vanilla or white chocolate)
(Fold first 2 ingredients together)
1 cup fat free vanilla yogurt
6 oz fat free cream cheese

1 pint fruit (blueberry, strawberry, raspberry or blackberry)
1 carton fat free cool whip
Cut angel food cake into squares, using a trifle dish or deep bowl, place a layer of angel food on the bottom. Layer mix that was folded together, a layer of cool whip, then fruit. Cont to layer, fruit being last layer at the top.
People will not ever guess this is a low fat dessert, its yummy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Looks pretty too
Chinese Chicken Salad
Dressing:
3 1/2 Tbsp. Soy Sauce
2 Tbsp. Vinegar
1 Tbsp. Veg Oil
1 Tbs. Sugar
1/2 Tsp. Garlic Powder
1/2 Tsp. Pepper
Salad:
2 c. torn lettuce
1 1/2 c. chopped cooked chiken
8 oz can sliced water chestnuts (drained)
1/2 c. julienne carrots
1/4 c. diagonally sliced green onions
1/4 c. chopped red cabbage
5 oz. chow mein noodles
In small bowl, whisk together dressing ingredients; set aside. In a large bowl, combine remaining salad ingredients, except chow mein noddles. Just before serving, toss salad w/dressing %26amp; top w/noodles.
I would gently suggest that you think of something other than dessert. My reason is simple, you'll find that at the great majority of these events, that's what most people bring. There will be a great selection of desserts!
My suggestion would be something along the salad line, since it is easy to make %26amp; transport and you don't have to keep it warm to too cold, etc. A couple of recipes are shown below %26amp; if you go to the websites, you can see pictures of them too. Very pretty!
Suggestion #1: From Uncle Ben's %26amp; I bet there won't be another one of these there! It is yummy!
Best Ever Wild Rice Picnic Salad
1 Package Uncle Ben鈥檚 long grain %26amp; wild rice (cooked, as directed on package %26amp; then chilled)
录 cup vegetable oil
2 tablespoons cider vinegar
录 cup onion, finely chopped
1 cup celery, sliced
5 radishes, sliced
1 cup cucumber, diced
Combine oil %26amp; vinegar, stir into chilled rice. Add onion %26amp; celery; mix well. Chill. Stir in radishes %26amp; cucumber before serving.
Serves about 6
Suggestion #2: If you have a large clear bowl, this would look great in that. Otherwise, pickup one of the Rubbermaid clear storage containers at the market. The 14 cup size should work well %26amp; can be used in future too! I would skip the bacon bits, as not needed.

I am looking for recipe suggestions for a potluck at my infant son's daycare (for Halloween)...?
I didn't want to bring anything too sugary and I'd like to avoid egg whites, peanuts, and honey since infants aren't supposed to eat those ingredients. Does anyone have recipes that might be appropriate for these little guys - most will be ages 8 months to 1 year? Maybe some sort of cake or dessert made with baby food?I am looking for recipe suggestions for a potluck at my infant son's daycare (for Halloween)...?
Make all the stuff you make green and mushyI am looking for recipe suggestions for a potluck at my infant son's daycare (for Halloween)...?
I would suggest a cream or pudding thing seeing as they still can eat real whole food or maybe like a fruit tart
just some ideas
Are you sure the food for the potluck is for the kids? If the parents are invited the potluck might mean food for them.
Soft fruits -- make your own fruit cups?
Gelatin/Jell-O (made in halloween cups)
Cereal cups (halloween cups with gerber graduates?)
Puddings (banana, etc) Fruit cups, Jello.. you can make your own then cut it into cute Halloween shapes. :)

I would suggest a cream or pudding thing seeing as they still can eat real whole food or maybe like a fruit tart
just some ideas
Are you sure the food for the potluck is for the kids? If the parents are invited the potluck might mean food for them.
Soft fruits -- make your own fruit cups?
Gelatin/Jell-O (made in halloween cups)
Cereal cups (halloween cups with gerber graduates?)
Puddings (banana, etc) Fruit cups, Jello.. you can make your own then cut it into cute Halloween shapes. :)

Cheap, fast, vegetarian potluck recipe?
I don't have a lot of money or time. Ideas? It has to be vegetarian, because a lot of people there are going to be vegetarian, so we agreed to just do veggie dishes (doesn't have to be vegan, although that is fine).Cheap, fast, vegetarian potluck recipe?
RamenCheap, fast, vegetarian potluck recipe?
Pasta al forno con pomodori e mozzarella (Baked Pasta with Tomatoes %26amp; Mozzarella)
sea salt and freshly ground black pepper
extra virgin olive oil
1 white onion, peeled and finely chopped
2 cloves of garlic, peeled and finely sliced
1 or 2 dried red chillies, crumbled
1.5kg/3 1/2lb ripe tomatoes, or 3 x 400gr tins of good quality plum tomatoes
a large handful of fresh basil leaves
1 tablespoon red wine vinegar (optional)
400gr/14oz dried orecchiette
4 big handfuls of freshly grated Parmesan cheese
3 x 150gr balls of mozzarella
Preheat your oven to 200C/400F/gas 6 and put a large pot of salted water on to boil. To an appropriately sized pan add a couple of glugs of good extra virgin olive oil, your onion, garlic and chilli and slowly fry for about 10 minutes on a medium to low heat until softened, but without any colour. If you're using fresh tomatoes, remove the core with the tip of a small knife, plunge them into the boiling water for about 40 seconds until their skin starts to come away, then remove with a slotted spoon or sieve and remove the pan from the heat.
Put the tomatoes into a bowl and run cold water over them, then slide the skins off, squeeze out the pips and roughly chop. Add your fresh or tinned tomatoes to the onion and garlic, with a small glass of water. Bring to the boil and simmer for around 20 minutes. Now put them through a food processor or liquidiser to make a loose sauce. Tear your basil leaves into the sauce and correct the seasoning with salt, pepper and a little swig of red wine vinegar.
When the liquidised sauce tastes perfect, bring the water back to the boil. Add the orecchiette to the water and cook according to the packet instructions, then drain and toss with half of the tomato sauce and a handful of Parmesan. Get yourself an appropriately sized baking tray, pan or earthenware dish and rub it with a little olive oil. Layer a little pasta in the tray, followed by some tomato sauce, a handful of grated Parmesan and 1 sliced up mozzarella ball, then repeat these layers until you've used all the ingredients, ending with a good layer of cheese on top. Pop it into the preheated oven for 15 minutes or until golden, crisp and bubbling.
Here are some easy vegetarian dish ideas:
Veggie Wraps- Take a pita bread or tortilla and stuff it with lettuce, cabbage, shredded carrots, almonds, and chow mein noodles. Drizzle it with a sauce like http://allrecipes.com/Recipe/Chinese-Sty鈥?/a> (it's a sesame sauce). I think the sauce is a little sweet, so cut down on the sugar a little bit.
Pasta salad- Throw together some cooked pasta noodles with broccli, cauliflower, mushrooms, artichoke hearts, onion, olive, and avocadio. Stir it together with your favorite salad dressing.
Vegetarian Enchiladas- Fill a corn tortilla with assorted cheeses and bake just like you do normal enchiladas. Use a sauce like this http://www.cooks.com/rec/view/0,1915,147鈥?/a> for a great topping. Those were some of my ideas- you can check out a site like this http://www.webvalue.net/recipes/ for more. Hope I helped! :)
Do pasta salad, or pesto pasta. Both are good cold, and easy and quick. Or you could do a large salad with a couple interesting ingredients (greek salad, salad with blue cheese, pears, nuts, and dried cranberries, salad with sprouts, kidney beans, tomato, and carrots, etc.) Or you could make tea sandwiches. Like cucumber sandwiches and cheese sandwiches.
GREEK PASTA SALAD
1 pkg. shaped pasta (cooked %26amp; drained)
1 cucumber, peeled, sliced %26amp; cut those into quarters
2-3 Roma tomatoes, cut in pieces
pitted kalamata olives
1/2 white onion, sliced %26amp; cut into pieces
small container feta cheese
Greek salad dressing
Toss all together.......

A fruit platter is always good, especially if you prepare it ahead of time. Peel the oranges, rinse off the strawberries, wash the grapes, have a bowl of nuts nearby to go with the fruit and that's very nutritious as well as being attractive.
Need a recipe with few ingredients for potluck?
I am going to a potluck in 5 hours that I just found out about. I've got no way to get to the grocery store and limited items in my home. What can I make? I have eggs, potatos, margarine, flour, a little pizza sauce, two chicken breasts, rice, raisins, bread, milk, juice.... etc. What the heck can I make? I thought of potato salad or a egg-potato casserole but all the recipes call for mayo, sour cream etc. Help?????Need a recipe with few ingredients for potluck?
What about this one? It's VERY delicious and you seem to have all the ingredients;
1/2 cup milk
1 egg, beaten
1 cup all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons garlic salt
1 teaspoon paprika
1 teaspoon ground black pepper
1/4 teaspoon poultry seasoning
1 (4 pound) whole chicken, cut into pieces
3 cups vegetable oil
1 cup chicken broth
1 cup milk
In a medium bowl, beat together 1/2 cup milk and egg. In a resealable plastic bag, mix together the flour, garlic salt, paprika, pepper and poultry seasoning. Place chicken in bag, seal, and shake to coat. Dip chicken in milk and egg mixture, then once more in flour mixture. Reserve any remaining flour mixture.
In a large skillet, heat oil to 365 degrees F (185 degrees C). Place coated chicken in the hot oil, and brown on all sides. Reduce heat to medium-low, and continue cooking chicken until tender, about 30 minutes. Remove chicken from skillet, and drain on paper towels.
Discard all but 2 tablespoons of the frying oil. Over low heat, stir in 2 tablespoons of the reserved flour mixture. Stirring constantly, cook about 2 minutes. Whisk in chicken stock, scraping browned bits off bottom of skillet. Stir in 1 cup milk, and bring all to a boil over high heat, stirring constantly. Reduce heat to low, and simmer for about 5 minutes. Serve immediately with the chicken. Serves 8.
You can make mashed potatoes and mix some of the gravy with the mashed potatoes too - it's really yum !
And if not, just make the fried chicken part.. it's really really good !
