Just curious if anyone has consolidated the $2 per serving recipes into one document? I'm just curious because I'd love to have something to hand out, but not waste a ton of paper by printing up all the separate pdfs. I could take the time to re-type everything into one shorter document, but I thought I'd check here first. There are 11 recipes listed, but many have multiple pages.

If anyone has anything like this, I would be SO grateful if you'd share.:):)

I tried doing searches in the files section, but couldn't find anything.

Thanks!!
 
Bumping to see if anyone has a file with these great recipes. Thanks.
 
Let me see if I can put something together... can you wait a day?

Joy, you are awesome!
 
Hey, beggers can't be choosers. Thanks for doing!
 
Are you thinking all layed out 1 column down in Word or something a little more brochure-y?
 
I think any way you want to give it to us is fine, LOL. Thanks, Joy
 
This would be so great to have to give out at my Open House! Thanks Joy!!! And great idea Becky!
 
Joy....always rocking it out for us!
 
What would we do without you Joy. Many Thanks! :)
 
OH this is a great idea! Would be a great thing to pass out to guest that order!
 
You guys, this turned out to be 17 pages long in Word!! I am going to work this weekend on consolidating this down into something a bit more manageable...

Okay, it was so large I couldn't even attach it. Here it is in PDF... stay tuned for a smaller file later.

Okay - I like the Two Buck Grub thing...like a play on words for Two Buck Chuck!What if you made it into 2 different flyers? One that was Power Cooking, and one that wasn't?
 
LOL, better than Two Buck YUCK!I can break off the Power cooking but that is still alot of recipes... I will see if I can put the non-power ones into a smaller format.
 
I love the look of it BTW - you do such good work!
 
I just proofread my first paragraph. sorry it sounds redundant when I say "economical mealtime solutions in this economy".I will replace economical with budget, maybe...
 
Hey Joy, is there a way to make the font a bit smaller in the type box at the type? My PWS address is 9 characters too long to fit on one line.

It looks great otherwise for me! I printed a copy here at work out for my own records/kitchen!
 
Is there a way to do page breaks so that the picture is with the recipe instead of on the page before?

Is the file in word too big to email? I'd love this in word.

Thanks for all your hard work!
 
Joy, one thing I noticed was there's a pictue of the bbq beef sandwich (under power cooking), and the recipe, too...but the title says "Easy Beef Strogonoff". Pro'lly want to change that. :)

Thanks for doing this!
 
Let me get these fixed later... I've spent way too much time at work the last 2 days working on these and need to get some other stuff done. Thanks.
 
Joy,

I just wanted to add my 2 cents. You, like all PC people are absolutely wonderful. MY PC business is such a "blessing". I think the whole world needs to know it.

I am sure everyone on this site agrees that you are a "blessing" to us.
 
Okay, smaller font, but I think it's still readable.... 6 pages in Word - smaller pictures and I ditched the Power cooking. I'll make something separate for those.
