35 Breakfast Potluck Ideas For Work That Will Impress Your Colleagues

Leave your colleagues at work in awe (in a good way) with these delicious and make-ahead friendly breakfast potluck ideas. Everything from muffins to pancakes, burritos, waffles, granola bars, and more!

I LOVED potlucks. Why past tense? Because I haven’t participated in any for a few years now. Almost all of them were organized at my last workplace and when I left the job to give a birth and raise a baby, all fun food parties stayed in the past. Okay now I sound like someone who is not happy with her lifestyle and let me assure you – it’s not like that at all! I love being stay-at-home mom and I wouldn’t have it any other way. Never ever. Moreover, I would be easily able to participate in potlucks with my friends but they are just not into it (potlucks are not so widespread and popular in my country).

My sister, though, is going to have her very first potluck (breakfast) at her workplace next week so she asked me for some ideas on what to prepare. In our family, I am considered to be some sort of a food authority just because I have a blog, despite the fact that she cooks as good as I do or even better. Oh well. Anyway, I had some spare time so I decided to help her out by looking for recipes on Pinterest and other foodie places.

One idea after another, I got a pretty big list so I thought: why not to share them with you, guys? Keeping in mind the popularity of potlucks in other countries, such a collection of make-ahead friendly breakfast recipes will be in handy, right? There are some really awesome ideas in this selection. I added like 10 of them to my to-do list!

So here you go. Whopping 35 breakfast potluck ideas for work. Everything from muffins to casseroles, cakes, granola bars, and more. Roll up your sleeves and let’s go!
