Potluck Becomes Popular Entertainment Trend
(NAPSA) – According to the site epicurious.com, potluck parties are back in vogue-providing the answer for trendy, budget-conscious entertaining.
Shifting away from formal, multicourse dinners, potlucks offer a low-key, casual get-together that’s fun for guests and can prove economical for the host.
Blogger DeeAnn McArdle provides tips on how to plan potlucks on her blog, UnleashYourInner Foodie.com. Hosts can select the menu and provide recipes for guests to bring, or the host can provide the main entree and leave it up to guests to bring their favorite appetizers, side dishes and desserts.
