Potlucks are a great way to feed a crowd with minimal effort and cost. What to bring to a potluck in a different story. These foods to bring to a potluck are sure to add to the communal table without putting stress on your host.
1. Mini Caprese Skewers
Quick and easy to assemble: cherry tomatoes, fresh basil, and mini mozzarella balls threaded onto toothpicks. Light and refreshing appetizer that’s sure to impress with its vibrant colors and burst of flavors.
2. Baked Brie with Cranberries and apple
Warm, gooey brie cheese topped with tangy cranberry sauce and baked to melty perfection. A simple yet elegant dish that pairs perfectly with crackers or crusty bread for a delightful appetizer.

4. Spinach and Artichoke Dip
Creamy dip loaded with spinach, artichokes, and cheese, baked until bubbly and golden brown. My favorite recipe can be found here. A classic party favorite that can be served with bread slices, chips, or veggie sticks for dipping.

5. Peppermint Bark
Layers of dark and white chocolate sprinkled with crushed peppermint candies for a festive and sweet treat. Easy to make in advance and can be broken into bite-sized pieces for a delightful holiday dessert option.
For a non-minty twist, try this cracker toffee!
