What to bring to a BHC potluck
BHC has fantastic pot lucks and a few dietary guidelines
Be creative, have fun, share your favorites, and keep it vegetarian/parave
Bring vegetarian, dairy and (fin)fish products. Please be sure there are NO animal fats - such as lard, shortening that may be made with lard (vegetable shortening is OK), chicken broth or beef broth - in the items.
Everybody enjoys seeing what fellow congregants bring. If you love a dish, others probably will, too! If your dish meets certain dietary guidelines (examples: gluten-free, dairy-free), please bring a display card with that information.
