I am going to a fish fry today and need to bring a dish. I would like to bring something healthy that I know I can eat. Any ideas?

That depends what kind of lifestyle you're on.
I'm low-carb, so my go-to potluck dish is deviled eggs. I make them with mustard, paprika and sour cream (not mayonnaise). They have the additional benefit of being both cheap and easy to make.0 -
Look in Lisa Lillien's Hungry Girl 1, 2, 3... She has a ton of slaw ideas and some little smokies!! Plus any of her recipes you could double to make it bigger for a potluck.... Hope this helps Jamie! Have fun tonight!0

This time of year I go to the farmers market and get whatever veggies look the most beautiful and prepare those. Sometimes the very simple dish - even raw - goes over great with so many people, simply because it's "safe" - we KNOW what is in it!0

This makes 6 servings @ 1 point each.0 -
