"I am always on the search for recipes that would be perfect to bring to meetings or potlucks. There really is a method to the madness when it comes to cooking for groups, particularly when a dish can't be kept warm or left to sit out. You have to pick very generic recipes that don't have a lot of crazy ingredients or flavor combinations to them. If it is a hot pasta dish, it's probably not going to be great if it has to sit out 2 hours before being served. Egg dishes work well since they are best served at room temperature and can often be delicious even cold. It is always best to choose something that can be easily recognizable and if not, then you should definitely tape a little note card with the recipe title to the dish. I find that people are more apt to eat something when they know what it is. That is probably the best piece of advice I can give you...."
