Help....I need assistance from the Hitched chefs....
Its the 'back alley barbeque' on the street we have just bought a house (but not moved into) tonight at 7pm.
We've only just decided we are going as H had to rearrange his schedule as he had double booked.
Instructions say bring something for the grill and a side dish to share.
Its 3.30 pm, its over 90 degrees in here, I am 38 weeks pregnant and hot and tired and the last thing I fancy doing is cooking. I also have a 30 min conference call at 5.30 pm and a ton of work to do (working from home).
I'll have to walk down to the local small overpriced supermarket. I'll get a burger for H and a veggieburger for me for the grill.
Any ideas as to what I can take for a side?
It can be appetizer, side or dessert - the key thing is that it requires minimal effort on my part, but doesn't look like that is the case as this is the first time I will be meeting many of our new neighbors so I need to look like a domestic goddess (or at least not a lazy person!).
The supermarket has a reasonable selection, particularly of 'fancy food'
I thnk the heat has fried my brain - all I can think of is veggies and dip, but I'd like to do something more imaginative.
Any quick, easy ideas? Thanks!
