Potluck dinner
Everyone brings one dish to share, so the host is not cooking alone and the table is full of variety.
How to do it
- Make a shared list so you get a mix of mains, sides, salads and desserts.
- Ask everyone to label their dish with key allergens and dietary notes.
- Set out plates, serving spoons and a drinks table before guests arrive.
- Add a simple game after dinner, such as one-word clues or a quiz.
