PrincessMommy Posted December 20, 2013 Share Posted December 20, 2013 I'm hosting dinner and planning to cook a tenderloin and ham. My daughter and sister both want to know what to bring. DD wants to shop tonight so I'm kind of pressed for time. Me, I'd rather wait to think of this until Sunday or Monday. I'm brain dead. Help! What would be a couple of dish ideas for them? It doesn't have to be recipes... I'll let them figure out their own. Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AmandaVT Posted December 20, 2013 Share Posted December 20, 2013 I would just ask them to each bring a veggie dish. Then they can make a favorite recipe or keep it simple and bring a salad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
unsinkable Posted December 20, 2013 Share Posted December 20, 2013 Tenderloin -- broccoli, green beans, wedge salad (with dressing!) scalloped potatoes, baked potatoes, duchess potatoes Ham -- corn casserole, sweet potatoes (casserole or baked), pineapple, glazed carrots, biscuits Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LucyStoner Posted December 20, 2013 Share Posted December 20, 2013 I'd tell one to bring their favorite starchy vegetable and the other to bring their favorite dark green veg dish. Dinner, done. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lmrich Posted December 20, 2013 Share Posted December 20, 2013 Baked apples goes well with both. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dandelion Posted December 20, 2013 Share Posted December 20, 2013 How about putting them in charge of dessert? They could bring the pie(s) and whatever else you might like to include. A bottle of dessert wine is always nice too. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alessandra Posted December 21, 2013 Share Posted December 21, 2013 I'd tell one to bring their favorite starchy vegetable and the other to bring their favorite dark green veg dish. Dinner, done. :iagree: No need to over think it. The ham & tenderloin should be great what ever is served with them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shukriyya Posted December 21, 2013 Share Posted December 21, 2013 Whatever you do, don't tell them to bring strawberries and grapes! :smilielol5: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
