I have an idea for family potlucks that I think is far better than the traditional dishes. This new idea is for the chef in the family or the best cooks. The idea is that everyone discusses dishes that they love and are loved by all the members of a family. My new idea that takes this all one step further. Instead of bringing dishes, the adults bring ingredients.

Send out an email with everyone cc’ed. Let them know you want to bring and what recipes Google Gemini suggests for a new fusion recipe extrangebada. Over a peroid of a few days, see what develops. I suggest each family member find an ingredient that is local and in plentiful supply. That’s usually when you get the best tasting fruit and vegetables at a great price. In my area, Mike’s Truck Garden in the place to go for this.

How it works:

  1. Choose a Base Dish: Decide on a general dish, like a pasta salad, chili, or a baked good.
  2. Ingredient Sharing: Family members share their favorite ingredients related to the chosen dish.
  3. Recipe Creation: The whole family collaboratively creates a recipe based on the shared ingredients. This could involve brainstorming, voting on combinations, or simply combining everything and seeing what happens!
  4. Potluck Recipe Day: Everyone brings their favorite chosen ingredients and the amatuer chefs in the family put something together which means shared cooking experiences and family bonding.
  5. Publish the Recipe: What better way to get your family bonded with other stranger families. Publish your recipe right here on Medium.
