FAST potluck dish?
I'm always getting invited to mid-week potlucks, and since I don't usually have time to prepare something beforehand, often end up spending too much money on mediocre supermarket prepared food. What's something I can buy ingredients for and quickly assemble at the potluck - something that doesn't require much counter space, chopping or cooking?

Ripe pears, spread with goat cheese - amazing
I know I am overusing the word amazing ...
In your own kitchen saute fresh kale with garlic, onions, pancetta or bacon and a little serrano pepper.
Store in refrigerator or freeze. At your host's home, boil pasta and toss with your pre-made ingredients. Add a little goat cheese, good to go.
Another possibility is to just offer to bring wine and potato chips. No one says no to that!
If chopping/prep is OK another salad would be a watermelon-feta type thing? melon and prosciutto?
