Yes, every time you turn around, there’s a sign up sheet for a gathering in the conference room.

If you are unlucky enough to get to the sheet before “drinks” or “plates and napkins” are spoken for, you have to bring something food-like to the shindig, and, sometimes the expectation is more than chips and salsa from the gas station market.

I usually have one or two items I always bring, one of which is Pumpkin Dip:

PUMPKIN DIP

4 c. confectioners sugar, sifted (I’ve had best results with name-brand sugar)
2 (8 oz. each) pkg. cream cheese, softened
1 (30 oz.) can pumpkin pie filling mix
2 tsp. ground cinnamon
1 tsp. ground ginger

In a large mixing bowl, combine sugar and cream cheese, beating until well blended. Beat in remaining ingredients.

Makes about 7 cups of dip. (That’s a lot of dip, be warned)

Serve with ginger snaps, I like the fancy thin ones you can find in the deli with the cheeses, etc.

What is your favorite “go-to” recipe for office pot luck lunches? Is there anything that you are asked to bring over and over again? Is it easy enough for people like me to make?
