potluck dish
Communal meal offering
A potluck dish is food prepared at home and brought to a shared meal where each guest contributes something: I'm bringing a casserole as my potluck dish.
The term implies both the food itself and the social expectation of participation—showing up empty-handed to a potluck is poor form.
