Have any of these recipes increased your sales or your bookings when you make them at a show? I am making the Chipotle Corn Bread on Wednesday, and was wondering if others have had good luck with sales, especially the DCB, and bookings with these Mexican recipes. Tips appreciated! Thanks!
 
The Cool & Crunchy Chicken Tacos as a Salad has been my biggest hit this season. I use the DCB to cook the chicken for it.
 
I am doing 3 parties in the next week and all are doing Chicken Fajitas in the DCB! Its quick and easy and a super great deal when the fajita meat is on sale for $1/pound! I made a dump cake in the DCB at my last party and sold 6!!!!! 4 cranberry and 2 white! The hardest part right now is that they have been on backorder so coming out a little slower than the rest of the order....
 
how do you make the chx fajitas in there? im having my grand opening party on saturday and that sounds like it would be a great addition to my menu...

Here you go, Shannon. This is how I do them, and the DCB is my #1 selling item. Others have different variations on them.

Wow. Keith posted his recipe instead of having people e-mail or PM him. Thanks Keith!
 
The situation called for it this time. It's been in the files here for a while. Other times, we have been talking about it in chat so it was more appropriate to just email it to people who were interested. :)
 
Hi there! As a fellow Pampered Chef consultant, I can definitely say that the Mexican in Minutes recipes have been a huge hit with my customers. Not only do they love the delicious flavors and easy preparation, but I have also seen an increase in sales and bookings when I feature these recipes at my shows. The Chipotle Corn Bread is one of my personal favorites and always receives rave reviews from my guests. I highly recommend giving it a try at your show on Wednesday - I have no doubt that it will be a hit with your guests as well. Best of luck and happy cooking!
