Martie Knows Parties: Girls' Getaway Dinner

Pack a cooler with your pre-made dinner fixings. Make a tasty casserole, like this Green Chile-Chicken Casserole, the day before and freeze it. It can thaw out in the cooler while you're traveling so it's oven-ready when you arrive. Prep the ingredients to Mexican slaw so that it is assembly-only once you arrive. For appetizers, buy guacamole, salsa, and chips from the store for guests to munch on when they arrive.
