what is a fun and healthy dish to bring to a company christmas potluck that EVERYONE will love?!?

Answer 1

spinach dip... everyone loves spinach dip!
not very healthy, but yummy!

I made a organic chili that was really good, everyone loved it, and it was gone!! Served it with some french bread pieces.

What about the water chestnuts wrapped in bacon.... yeah, not very healthy either... stick with the chili. Use turkey instead of beef so more people will try it. Or just leave out the meat and use the smart ground tofu.

Have fun!!!

Answer 2

I bet nobody will think of bringing beans, here's a great recipe: Sweet Bourbon Baked Beans (10-13 1/3 servings ) 7/8 lb bacon, cut into 1-inch pieces 1 2/3 onions, chopped 5 (16 ounce) cans baked beans 1 2/3 (15 ounce) kidney beans, drained 3 1/3 tablespoons dark molasses 3 1/3 tablespoons dark brown sugar 5/8 cup bourbon 7/8 cup chili sauce 1 2/3 teaspoons dry mustard 1 2/3 teaspoons cinnamon Preheat oven to 350º. Cook bacon until crisp, drain and set aside, saving bacon drippings. Saute onions in bacon drippings. In a bowl, mix the beans together with the onions, mustard, molasses, sugar, bourbon, chili sauce and cinnamon. Add the bacon bits and fold in gently. Pour into a 2 quart bean pot or casserole. Bake covered for 40 minutes. Let stand 15 minutes before serving. Bring this to the party, arrive a few mins early and put this in the oven or cook at home and transfer in something that will keep them warm. Have a great time....

Answer 5

QUICHE!
It's something that few people will expect and yet it's so good and simple to make. I found a great simple recipe with bisquick. Sounds strange, but it comes out tasting and having the texture off an egg & cheese McMuffin. The best part is that the recipe says to put the cheese on the bottom, but somehow during baking, it ends up in the middle like a sandwich. You can eat this quiche with your hands, not a fork! I suggest adding a little salt and pepper to this recipe to taste.

Answer 6

Maybe a meat, cheese and cracker tray, or a veggie dipper tray with a ranch dip. It's so hard to try and come up with a dish that you can please the most people with...let alone a healthy one at that. I know what you're doing through. Good Luck : )

Answer 7

Cut flour tortillas into strips and spray with cooking spray. Sprinkle on a variety of seasonings and bake at 350 until crisp and brown. You can use season salt, paprika, garlic powder, red pepper, really anything you like.

Make homemade salsa for dip.

Answer 8

Orzo Salad

Cook Orzo with Chicken Stock (water is ok, but stock will give it more flavor)
when cooked and cooled
Add quartered grape (or cherry) tomatoes
quartered cucumber (with seeds removed)
julienned onion (red or white)
Chopped Dill
Salt and Pepper
You can add Shrimp or Chicken
Mustard vinagrette

Answer 9

Green Bean Bundles, only wrap w/ lean ham instead of bacon to make it healthy. Folks love that sort of thing, and they are pre-portioned!

8 slices of bacon, cut into halves
½ tsp. Garlic powder, or to taste
½ cup melted butter
½ cup packed brown sugar

Sprinkle with garlic powder. Drizzle with mixture of butter and brown sugar.

Bake for 30 minutes or until bacon is cooked through.
Yield: 16 servings

Answer 10

Maybe spinach dip??? I think most people always like that. It's probably impossible to make everyone happy. . .But if you put out a big bowl of dip, and some chips or some sort (try to be creative and get some fun chips) I think people tend to like that.
