With Our first BBQ of the season coming up next weekend, I'm on the hunt for new and exciting dishes to bring. There's always a million pasta and potato salads. Anyone have a unique go to dish for BBQs?

Re: What do you bring to BBQs?
2 can kernel corn
2cans black beans ( rinsed & drained)
1 red onion
2 red peppers
2 avocados
2 large mangos
1 bunch cilantro
Chop all veggies into bite size pieces & put in bowl. Mix dressing & add
2 cloves garlic
1/3 cup olive oil

Adjust these ingredients to your taste before adding to veggies. Mix well.. Best if it sits for a few hrs or overnight... Keep refrigerated ...

As far as what to take depends on the effort I (aka h) feels like putting into something.
Some sort of side dish (potato, pasta, macaroni salad) are usually a hit, fruit salad maybe, cold veggie pizza (croissant crust with cream cheese, sourcream and dry ranch packet for the "sauce" topped with chopped carrots, broccoli and black olives), cookies.

FTM to my sweetpea Miss D.
If I don't bring that, usually a simple pasta salad or watermelon.

It's always a hit!
However, pineapple pretzel fluff is something that I only make for special occasions/to bring places because it's amazing but not healthy (hey, at least there is pineapple).
