Editorial Review:
Potlucks and picnics, dinner parties and church socials, fundraisers, toasts to the teacher, reunions, cookouts—it's the busy age of shared meals, which means with every invitation comes the question: " What can I bring?" Anne Byrn, an inspired cook, problem solver, and bestselling author of The Cake Mix Doctor cookbook and other books with over 2.6 million copies in print, knows exactly how to answer the question. Cutting through menu block—a condition familiar to everyone who cooks—here are over 200 delicious suggestions for crowd-pleasing food that’s designed to travel. There are finger foods, canapes, and "trios"—Trio of Marinated Goat Cheese, Asian Summer Rolls with a Trio of Sauces, Trio of Pastry-Wrapped Camemberts. 25 surprising salads: White Corn Salad with Fresh Thyme, Asparagus and Grilled Peppers with Asian Soy Dressing. Main dishes for a party, from Southern-Style Pulled Pork to Creamy White Bean and Spinach Lasagne. Desserts (of course, 25 of them), and a full chapter of loaves and other gifts from the kitchen, including Chocolate Sour Cherry Bread and Sun-Cooked Peach Preserves. Each recipe comes with Tote Notes (how best to transport the dish), Big Batch (how to multiply the dish), and When You Arrive (how to put the finishing touches on the dish). Plus there are "Grab & Gos"—super-quick recipes—for each section, etiquette tips for working in someone else's kitchen, and a "Notes" area for each recipe, to jot down tips and log in when you made the dish and for what occasion, so you don't repeat yourself.
Customer Reviews
Average Rating: 
Rating:  - Not what I expected.
I expected quick, easy recipes and didn't think the recipes in the book fell into that category. This one will end up being a Christmas gift for someone,
Rating:  - Too "gourmet" for me
More ingredients than Ms. Byrn's previous "based-on-a-mix" books, and some out-of-the-ordinary ingredients, too. The recipes look good, but I was expecting faster and easier recipes.
Rating:  - Good Ideas
I found this very helpful. The recipes are good, as well as the suggestions on how to pack things for a pot luck.
Rating: - It was ok
I found this book very uninteresting. I still haven't picked it up, or attempted a receipt. It is just a boring book. I might write another review, but for today... my suggestion is to look for something more interesting.
Rating: - What Can I Bring?Cookbook
This is a book I wish I'd had when my kids were young. So many times I could have used this. But now my husband belongs to clubs which from time to time we have a potluck and this is very, very, helpful. Since we live in an age of color and pictures, I wish they had included pictures of the finished product and that way you'd know if yours was too soupy or too dry or whatever. Very helpful though and the receipes are very good.
