Potluck fails - help

[Anonymous]

Hi, OP. I’m a Cook’s Illustrated fan and I had a similar experience. I think most people are just looking for comfort food during a potluck.

I found with desserts, however, it helps to cut into and take a small piece of the dessert (to get it “started”), after which people usually will usually partake.

Other easy options - fruit skewers or tomato/basil/mozzarella skewers. Anything easy to eat or finger foods go faster than a similar item that needs more effort.

Deviled eggs are always a hit but they are such a pain to make! I hate peeling eggs and I don’t seem to have the secret to not get gross looking eggs because my peeling is so bad.

That’s a good tip, thanks!
