potluck dishes
Shared meal offerings
Potluck dishes are foods brought by guests to a shared meal where each person contributes something.
The term covers both the physical dishes and their contents: I need to wash the potluck dishes before returning them.
Common potluck dishes include casseroles, salads, and desserts—foods that travel well and serve many.
