I am doing a breakfast show on Saturday at a local campground. The host just informed me that they have no oven or stove. The number of attendees could be anywhere from 5-50! No way to tell. Since this is a FREE Cooking show (I supply the ingredients) I was thinking about my only alternative would be to prepare ahead of time mini muffins and then just layer fruit in the Trifle Bowl. That way I could just concentrate on doing a typical "show the catalog" show. Any ideas or suggestions?
 
That sounds like the perfect plan. Maybe make some frozen concentrate juice in the QSP. You can also include yogurt in the trifle bowl - vanilla usually comes in a large tub. Just carry it to the campground in a cooler.
 
Make sure to bring your BBQ tools - long handles keep your hands away from the campfire...

You could do a yogurt/fruit trifle - not just fruit...maybe even add some of the new sprinkles on top for flavor/decoration...

Don't forget the outdoor plates...

Hmm...thinking on recipes still...

You could serve something made ahead - like the Apple Caramel Bread Pudding...do like you said in the trifle bowl - layered fruit & yogurt...I love the bagel spread idea.
 
They have crunchy granola bites that you could sprinkle between the yogurt and the fruit.
 
Also if you take 8 oz of cream cheese and add 1 Tbsp of Southwest Seasoning and put it on bagels that is really good. I just tried that for the first time this morning.
