Cut with Pizza cutter. Serve with mini serving spatula.
 
That did it for me!That was the recipe at the one and only kitchen show I attended before becoming a consultant. I had to have the garlic press and the ultimate slice and grate after I saw how thinly she sliced those tomatoes. I hate tomatoes, but they cooked down and it tasted just like sauce!! I was sold!
 
This is one of my absolute favorite PC recipes, both at home and at a demo. The ingredient list is small, the demo is easy, and it tastes incredible! Even those who don't care for tomatoes like this recipe! Give it a try if you haven't yet. This was one of my two recipes that I did in my very first shows. YUMMM!
 
Thanks for sharingI have the cookbook so I've heard of the recipe, but never tried it...looks like I'm definitely going to try this tomorrow at our cookout! Thanks :D
 
It sounds so good and easy to make. I will have to try this one and I am sure I will be making these as soon as my SS1 kit arrives so I will have to bar pan to make them it. Thanks for sharing.
 
You can use the Large Round Stone to make these, or even the Rectangle Stone! I made mine on the Large Round Stone at my first shows, until I earned the Bar Pan. It turns out just a good!

I also like to use the French Loaf dough for the crust instead of the pizza crust. Just my preference...
 
can I use the large round stone instead?Trying to find a quick, easy and yummy recipe to demo at a few shows but as I am just starting I only will have the large round stone to use. Would I be able to pull it off with this recipe since it calls for the rectangle piece??? :confused:

I think you can, you could make it a circle and then cut it into pie slices like a pizza...you can always improv on a recipe!!!
 
Its my all time favorite PC recipe too! I'm making it for a show on Sunday afternoon, the host wanted something light. Everybody always rave's about it and it is so easy! I'm fixing a microwave cake to go with it.

its a big hit!Tomato Basil Squares are my favorite demo recipe because
1. when my sister
tried them this summer she told me i should start doing pampered chef myself (she was right!)
2. a customer booked a show from a show where I served these and the she said "I want you to make the exact same thing at my show!"
3. They can be cut into small pieces for a large crowd
4. They show off the stone wear. the ultimate slice and grate, the batter bowls, the garlic press, the cheese grater, and look great on the simple additions tray!
5. You CAN adapt them, you don't need the ultimate slice and grate for the tomatoes, just use the utility knife! You can make them on the round, rectangle flat or bar pans!
6. You can do a lot of the work AHEAD of time, if you are new and nervous about doing the whole recipe in front of people!
YAY I love these things!
Plus they are sooooooooooooooooo yummy! :p
