HELP! I have a show coming up where all the guests are either singles, or couples with no children. I would love to have some recipes tailored to that lifestyle, if anyone has any suggestions!

HELLO, HOME OFFICE...maybe some recipe cards or a cookbook in the future for just this audience?

Many thanks,

Ann
 
The Stoneware Inspirations cookbook has a whole chapter of Table For Two. The recipes are great, you should check them out!!!
 
The chocolate peanutbutter torte (stoneware insperations) is to die for! It's a great recipe for 2 or I have doubled the recipe in the past for 4!
 
(Stoneware Inspirations) You might want to spotlight this cookbook, but remember there will be 6-10 people at your party. You want to be sure to make enough to give everyone a sample.

For small households investment cooking is also important because usually both people are working and coming in tired and hungry. If they make a nice large meal at the beginning of the week they won't have to worry about cooking every night. We also have a couple of recipes that make just the meat that you can incorporate into several 10 minute recipes later in the week.

Be sure to share those tips!! Good luck at your party!
 
There is a flyer available in the downloads section of pamperedchef.com. It shows how you can cook once in the roasting pan and eat all week! I'll see if I can find it and post it.
