I did a Show on Thursday and I REALLY tried my first Interactive Show (there were 20 guests) - and I think I could have picked other recipes. I liked the Jerk Chicken Nacho demo - but we also did the Warm Nutty Caramel Brownie and DID NOT like that recipe for an Interactive Show. For those who LOVE the Interactive Style - what recipes do you find to be successful and give you high sales (from the products used)?
 
The Deluxe Cheeseburger Salad is amazing!

It uses cookware, stoneware, knives, UM, food chopper, salad chopper, SA for serving, bowls for mixing, measuring tools, prep bowls.....and there is plenty for everyone to do with an interactive show!

I agree! It would be great to demo.

What do you interactive consultants think about the Jerk Chicken Nachos?
 
The Aloha Pizza is another great one, but with the weather warming up it may be more of a Fall recipe now unless you learn to do it on the grill.
 
Power Cooking rocks - just did it last night; the guests were dumbfounded they could have a Pampered Chef experience in just 25 minutes!
 
Make your own sundaes!!!

Set up stations and the guests travel and work for their toppings!

No one has complained, yet. If they do, they are welcome to not eat! LOL
No, I would get their food for them, I guess. Hasn't happened yet!
 
I just did the Summer Berry Shortcakes on Sunday (interactive) and it was great! I also like the Jerk Chicken Nachos, Cheeseburger Salad and Mojitos - I've been doing all of those all spring. I like the micro cakes, too, but not everyone "agrees" with them. I've never had a problem, though.
 
The Chicken Grapefruit Avocado Salad is a good one too. I added the Salad spinner to wash the spinach.

It is a yummy salad.
 
I did the salsa with the salad chopper and sold 10 salad choppers!! Funny, how no one wanted to book a party to get them for $10 with free shipping, but I still sold 10. The strawberry creme trifle was a fun interactive one and everyone seems to have fun with the different tools and I sold alot of core and more, citrus press , egg slicers and trifle bowls.
Cheeseburger Salad is a great one too.

Do you use the company's show outline for that, or do you have your own? I would love it if you shared if you do your own!

:love:
