16 FORGOTTEN Potluck Dishes Grandma Brought to the Church Hall (How Many Do You Remember?)

Pull up a chair at the long table in the church basement, where folding tables groaned under casseroles, gelatin molds, and covered dishes with masking tape names on the bottom. Tonight we count down sixteen potluck dishes grandmothers carried in on Sunday, from Utah to Georgia to the Minnesota lake country, and the small, thrifty stories behind each one. Settle in, take your time, and tell us in the comments which dish your family always brought.
