mmm mmmm mmmmThese all sound good. Thanks for reminding me I have the recipe cards for chili's and stews :o ..Now I wish I had a show or 2 in January.
 
I know this theme sounds really fun! I am hoping my 2 shows who booked in OCt still want their Jan shows and I can talk them into doing this one! And hopefully my "maybe" leads and postponements will want them too!
 
Sounds too good and it's almost dinner time!You all made me very hungry here. I have been doing the Lazy Lasagna Chili for the last cuple of winters and it went over great! Easy, great to demo and tastes great. I do a variation on the beer bread. I make it at home though. I add 2 tablespoons of our Italian Seasoning, 3/4 cup shredded parmesan cheese and two cloves of garlic, pressed. Fantastic! I do four mini loaves then keep one at home for later. I slice the three I take and place them like whole breads on the SA rectanlge in the woven tray or on the stand. I use an SA Samll Bowl for the butter and put the Spreader in it.
But I gotta know about the Greek Lemon Chicken Soup. I have a show on the 14th and want to do that soup, this bunch has had the Lazy LAsagna Chili already, and it sounds awsome! The problem, I won't have time to try it out first!

My director offers a Soup and Slippers show for January. It's basically the same idea as mentioned here, except she puts on the invites to bring your favorite slippers. The best slippers get a prize.


I'll be doing this at my shows in January too. I don't have a stockpot, but my hospitality director is going to graciously lend me one for the month. She has 3 of them! ;) Most directors (I think anyway) have at least a couple since most earn and buy new products. Anyway, I'm glad I came across this thread! I was going to just pick up a bag of Pillsbury rolls to use on a stone (I'm doing the Soup and bread thing, AND just having everyone show up in slippers!), but I think the beer bread would be a better idea! Then I'm demonstrating a food product too! Thanks for the tips!

I'm in search for an invite too. The host already has her packet, but I may email her a flyer she can email out to her guests....

That is another thing, do you guys as consultants send out invites, or do you have the host do it? Just curious!

Ok, I have a flyer! I can't take credit for it, but I've included it here for you all to enjoy. I think I'd get this printed on card stock paper for invites. I'm sure you could tweak it any way you'd like. But these would be great for post card invites too!

I'm also doing the Soup and Slippers theme for January. I still want to offer a dessert though. What would you all suggest to go along with this theme that wouldn't drag the show out too much?
 
Here is the recipe for lazy lasagna chili.
