Hello all, you guys are so creative, I thought you might have some ideas. I am in the planning stages for a couples show. I thought I would have a cook-off between the men and women. I want to have them fix 2 different recipes, main course and dessert. I want them to be simple recipes but show lots of $$ in products. Which 2 recipes do you suggest? Also, I thought it would be fun to answer trivia questions to earn the PC product they need to complete the recipe. Have any of you done this, and what types of questions did you ask? Thanks in advance

Never mind, It is very early, and I completelty forgot about the search function. I searched Couples show and found a ton of ideas.
 
Hey there! I love the idea of a cook-off between couples, it sounds like a lot of fun. As for recipe suggestions, how about a classic steak with a fancy rub for the main course and a decadent chocolate lava cake for dessert? Both dishes can be made with high-quality ingredients to show off the $$ factor.As for the trivia questions, you could ask things like "What is the main ingredient in a traditional French béarnaise sauce?" or "What is the proper way to sear a steak for maximum flavor?" You could also incorporate questions about different PC products and their uses in cooking. Good luck with your show!
