Plus they only give you 2 prep bowls in the kit which means all new consultants will have to go out and buy a full set. It is really worth it to have a full set!
I do a no demo show - think I can prep these before hand and put them in the micro at the end of the show? Or just have them set out all pretty on the round platter during the show?

OMG>..I SooOO love the Prep Bowls...DEFINITELY worth getting the whole set. I often just take 2 or 3 to a show, but at home...I've been feeling like I should get another set even before this recipe!
I suggest to guests to make the individual 'omlet' in them in the microwave, everyone loves that tip. I say "mix one egg, add cheese and other of your favorite omlet ingredients. Stack them in the fridge, and in the morning when the kids come down for breakfast before school - or anytime- they can take it out, remove the lid, micro for one minute...THAT'S much healthier than a POP TART! "
And I love the tip about using the Chef's Tongs to remove it from the microwave!
I use them to store leftovers, melt butter/chocolate in micro, measure, --everyone loves the Batter Bowls...so they'll love these mini versions!
:love:

I got my prep bowls from my bridal shower before I signed up for PC. I wasn't even sure I wanted them but needed to add more things to my list so the prep bowls went on the list. So glad I got them! They are wonderful.
I use mine at my shows to chop fresh herbs and bacon. I cannot stand when a recipe tells you to chop herbs with a knife, never works for me. So I put them in the prep bowl and cut them with the shears. I do bacon for the club house chicken squares the same way. Did this the other night for a show and the host was amazed, never had thought about that before.
GourmetGirl said:My only complaint about the recipe is the nutrition information...did y'all read that?!?!
It has nutrition?? Ya, I looked at the nutrition thing. They probably should have just skipped putting that on there.... its pretty... not healthy. Maybe thats why I love it?

I prepare the recipe at the host's house just wasn't for sure if I should microwave them before the show or towards the end. I could just have the set in the microwave and while they are filling out their customer care cards and we do doorprizes, they can be cooking. Cannot wait to try this recipe.

wouldn't this happen with these cakes?
So the Medium Scoop is what they use...?? I don't have the medium, just the small and large...guess I could use two scoops of the small to equal one medium scoop.
AHHH...I have this show TONIGHT, and still can't decide what dessert to do with the BBQ pork sandwiches!
that chocolate strawberry cake sounds good too...but ..hmmm i'm not sure I want to cook EVERYTHING in the microwave tonight...so maybe i'll go with something all together different!
I better get crackin'!

that's what I was thinking! A lot of times people can add apple sauce in stead of butter, but I don't know how to change that, and I don't know if it would do anything to the flavor of it considering lemon is more intense flavor than chocolate. Chocolate is easy to disguise other things into it!ShanaSmith said:
