Emeril’s Potluck
Comfort Food with a Kicked-Up Attitude
by Emeril Lagasse

America’s favorite chef Emeril Lagasse is ready to party.

Parties and celebrations mean food. Lots of food: tureens of soup, platters of chicken, bowls of salad, casseroles of baked pasta. From family reunions to holiday buffets, summer barbecues to tailgate parties, and weekend brunches to bridal showers, Emeril’s Potluck offers crowd-pleasing dishes perfect for gatherings with friends and family.

Emeril’s Potluck brings together everything Emeril loves most about cooking and eating. The food is simple, flavorful, and perfect for sharing at any get-together. Each recipe serves a whopping 8 to 10 people, but don’t assume you’re making too much — everyone will be heading back for seconds and thirds of these Emerilized starters, entrees, drinks, sides, and desserts.

Start by toasting the occasion with a glass of Champagne Punch, a Watermelon Daiquiri, or an Orange Emeril. Then let the feast begin! Classic Blue Cheese Dip, Alain’s Sweet and Spicy Asian Wings, or Sausage-Stuffed Mushrooms will get your party started right! Main courses range from Olive-Stuffed Leg of Lamb and Creole Mustard and Herb-Wrapped Beef Tenderloin to homey favorites such as Charlotte’s Lasagna Bolognese, Penne à la Vodka Casserole, and Tuna Tetrazzini. Of course, it wouldn’t be a party without dessert, so save room for Chocolate Peanut Butter Pie, Strawberry Shortcake, and Emeril’s Tiramisu.

The recipes are quick, easy, and portable. Enjoy these dishes at home or take them on the road. Emeril’s Potluck — so foolproof, so easy, so crowd pleasing that luck has nothing to do with it.
