Room Temperature Potluck

[shimmerysummersun]

I'm looking for somewhat healthy foods that can sit out at room temperature for a work potluck. I know the typical fruit and veggie trays, but i'm hoping for something a bit more interesting. Thanks for any ideas!

Hi

This is a fabulous recipe that actually suggests room temperature:

Caprese Pasta #431961



The bowl is empty whenever I bring it to an event. After making it several times, I have altered it a bit. Here are my private notes:
Use grape tomatoes vs reg. tomatoes. Use mozzarella pearls vs block mozzarella.
Double the Basil, grape tomatoes, capers, cheese and add a whole can of sliced black olives. Increase olive oil to 1/3 cup and balsamic to 3 tbsp.


Another thought, Marinated Olives

Marinated Green Olives - Chakistes Kibrisli Style #259500
Spanish Marinated Olives #63471
