Friendsgiving Dinner

Plan a Friendsgiving potluck with flexible categories and ideas for what to bring. Choose something you enjoy; other favorites are welcome. Starting quantities suit about 15–20 guests and can be adjusted. Host: claim anything you are providing before sharing. Guests: bring a serving utensil, label ingredients and allergens, and check with the host if your dish needs reheating. Spots count contributions and helping roles, not attendance.

Questions

Can friends bring a different dish from the examples?

Yes. Edit the categories and dish questions to suit your gathering, and tell guests whether other favorites are welcome.

Do Friendsgiving contribution spots count how many guests are coming?

No. They count submissions for food, supplies, or helping roles. Use a separate attendance signup if you also need a guest count.
