Woo hoo Deb!!! I'm so excited for you to have another little chef baby!
I Know what you mean about certain foods not smelling good. Ick. I had a major chicken aversion for awhile. Back then I wasn't doing as many shows, but these days it would be more of an issue. Another reason for your interactive shows you're already doing! Once at a show I was overcome by a severe feeling of nastiness after pressing some garlic and throwing out the peel.
good luck with the food smells!!!

We tried the Greek Bolognese from 29 Min vol 2. It was awesome and easy. My only issue is it takes THREE Tablespoons of the Greek Rub!
And then there's mint. Looks like I'm going to have to plant some this year! I am thinking that if a host wants a recipe containing mint I could bring it and a clipping so she can plant some for herself.
And CONGRATULATIONS Debbie!:sun: What great news!!

I'm making that for dinner later this week when Kristin comes. Glad it was good. We might need to suggest to HO to start packaging the greek rub in a larger bottles

Ok so I have made already,
Steamed Wonton Purses--SB pg 8
Jalapeno Popper Pizzas--Pg 10
Chocolate-Carmel Pecan Cakes--pg 26
and Double Chocolate mouse Cups--pg 30
Plus I made the chocolate velvet cake with strawberries.
The wonton purses and the chocolate carmel pecan cakes we made at my cluster meeting. We liked the purses but they aren't as good as the old recipe--also not as hard to make. The cake was ok but I won't be making it again. I don't like chocolate that much--Hey more for you right--but I wasn't the only one that thought it fell flat on taste.
The other three I made the other day when I was supposed to be having a host appreciation show. I had 10 confirmed and noone showed up. plus I made the mini cheesburgers. So anyway the popper pizzas are good at first but they should be served warm and pretty close to when they come out. Also if you cook the dough too long it gets kind of tough. The mousse cups are fantastic. I could just eat the filling without the rest though. And I really liked the chocolate cake with strawberries. It seemed a little dry but I think it was my fault--cooked just a little too long. I bought the best strawberries though so that made up for it. Kristi and one of my other girls thought that the strawberry jam that you glaze on top tasted like raspberries. Not sure why. we even went back to make sure I bought the right thing.
So that is what I have done so far. By the way I don't think any of them would make good show recipes. Not enough tools used. You could maybe do the chocolate velvet cake with strawberries as an extra recipe with out demoing much but that's about it.
CONGRATS--Deb!! Hopefully the smells will settle soon.
