Best of luck to you both. Sounds like you’re gonna need it.

The Cubans would prolly need to stay warm or at least room temp. If that’s not an option I have a couple other suggestions. I have brought all these to potlucks before.

Greek salad - torn Romaine, chopped roasted red peppers from a jar, red onion slices, halved cherry tomatoes, black olives, and crumbled feta cheese. Bring a bottle of Greek vinaigrette and pour and mix right before serving.

Macaroni and cheese

Mini meatballs

Baked beans

Pie, either homemade or from a bakery

Mini cupcakes

Layered Lemon dessert - tastes better if made the day before. Not hard to make. My sons loved it.

Good luck!
