Since the first potluck Thanksgiving celebration held by the pilgrims and Native Americans at Plymouth Colony in 1621, potlucks have become an established American tradition. To this day, the potluck custom continues at celebrations, milestones, holidays, sporting events, and family gatherings. THE POTLUCK COOKBOOK offers dishes ranging from oven-baked dips to enchiladas, antipasto, soups, salads, and desserts galore. Potluck fare is as diverse as the people who attend, and Dolores Kostelni has selected home-run favorites that will impress and inspire eaters to dig in! Tailgate parties, Crock Pot chili, and a side of cornbread make a perfect match, while summer cookouts beg for a bevy of fresh salads, sides, and fruits displayed in carved-out vegetables and watermelons. Learn the secrets for perfect potluck presentation and recipes that appeal to a wide range of taste buds. All the best, most portable classic casseroles, cookies, and quick breads can be found here alongside the vintage food graphics that inspired the potluck craze back in the day.

to appreciate freshness and to transform ingredients into tasty foods opens their eyes to making wiser choices about what to eat...
