I need to bring a side dish to a Thanksgiving Day lunch at my office. I would prefer to bring something that doesnt need to be reheated before it is served. What are some of your FAVORITE recipes?

I've been making this for years and never have any leftovers.
Cranberry Mousse
1 (6 oz) pkg cranberry flavored jello
1 c boiling water
1 (20 oz) can crushed pineapple
1 (16 oz) can whole berry cranberry sauce
3 tbsp lemon juice
1 tsp grated lemon peel
1/2 tsp ground nutmeg
2 c sour cream
1/2 c chopped pecans or walnuts (optional)
In a large bowl, dissolve jello in boiling water. Drain pineapple, setting the pineapple aside and adding juice to jello. Stir in cranberry sauce, lemon juice, lemon peel and nutmeg. Chill until mixture thickens. Fold in sour cream, pineapple and pecans. Chill until set.

Your standard cole slaw should do. But try adding crushed pineapple (drained), raisins (or better yet craisins to keep with the season), and walnuts. It not only personalizes the dish it always keeps with the theme.
If that doesn't work, try Deviled Eggs. Always a crowd pleaser. I top mine with olives, bread + butter chips (sweet pickles), even canned tuna (or salmon) sometimes. Depends on the crowd.
And if all else fails, everyone loves a relish tray. Sesame crackers, cubed or sliced cheeses, and fruit (grapes, strawberries, etc...).

I always make a Broccoli salad for my husband and it's really good.
It's 8 cups of chopped broccoli
2 cups of cherry tomatoes
1 cup onions
1 cup of shredded cheese
and 1 cup of Caesar Salad dressing
It's got a really festive look to it because it's all red and green :)
