Yummy 😊
My job did a directors/managers potluck before everyone started taking vacation time and preparing for both Christmas and the New Year. There was so much food from so many different cultures. I even got a chance to see how ‘white elephant’ works. It is a pretty decent and fun way to exchange gifts with coworkers without harsh feelings and the whispers to follow in the office come Monday. Free food and non-work related work? Don’t mind if I do 🍴
I made 3 cheese macaroni.
The menu also included
- Jerk chicken lettuce wraps
- Vietnamese egg rolls
- Chicken & pork tamales
- Deviled eggs
- Corn
- Jalapeño shrimp wrapped in bacon
- Chicken Marsala pizza
- Double graham crusted cheesecake
- Apple pie
- 7Up cake
- Fruit & Veggie platter
& so many other things….. This was hands down probably one of the best potluck I have ever experienced. There was so much food left that we were all able to take multiple plates home. Going into the weekend, that wasn’t a bad idea. Great food & desserts without the work of cooking? Sure. I do thoroughly enjoy cooking but I also enjoy not having to cook all the time.
This was my awesome take away from our potluck. I can’t wait to cook, review & most definitely eat!
I wish my coworkers were as creative as yours. Mine seem to be stuck in a rut when it comes to picking their dishes but I try to be the exception and bring something different for every potluck. I can only hope they catch on and get inspired to try something new.

One thing you could do is suggest a theme where people can bring something to represent a different country or region or set a theme to the potluck like appetizers, finger foods, pasta, Vietnamese, etc.
