Need Help Deciding Which Recipe to Use for My First Show.

[daricsmom]

I am going to be doing my first show and dont know what recipes to use? And I have a silly question, someone said something about the recipe for success, what is that? Thanks Chrissy

Recipe for Success is what the business guide used to be called. It's the materials that go into the binder that came in your kit.The last 2 recipes in each section of the SBRC are designed to be kit recipes, in that they can be done using only tools that come in the kit. They're also usually very doable for a new consultant. Pick one that you like and practice it. Trust me, it'll make it a lot easier to demo if you know what to do already.

Your kit came with recipe cards designed for new consultants. The 3 Cheese Garden Pizza is very yummy!

Whatever recipe you use, make sure to practice it first! You could ask your host if she prefers sweet or savory and go from there.

Let us know what you picked and good luck with your first show!

Everyone loves the Three-Cheese Garden Pizza and you can show quite a few tools. Just make sure you are comfortable using the mandoline (or else slice with a knife instead). You could also do the new Classic Mini Cheeseburgers (Game Day Theme Show), as they are very easy to make and of course yummy. We'll all second this -- try your recipes first and see if there is anything you'd like to change or need practice with. Plus, most of the recipes are so easy you'll remember them after doing them just once or twice, and you won't have to look at a recipe card. Your guests will think you belong on Food Network. Good luck with your first show!!

I totally agree. This is what I did at my first show.

I did the Chickhen Enchilada Ring for my first show and my 2nd show was the next day and I did the BLT Mac N Cheese.... Both were a huge hit and my first show demanded a ring. LOL Loved both of them though!!! My 3rd show was a brunch and I did a Cinnamon Cream Cheese Bake and everyone loved that too! Those have been my biggest "hits" so far!!

I love the Clubhouse Chicken Squares -- I did these at my first show and my latest (#408) - one of my favorites!

Whatever you choose, I suggest that you stick with the same recipe for your first 10 shows so that you can not worry so much about the recipe and get the other parts of your show down pat.The show is not about the recipe anyway.

Thank you Thank you everybody!! I am going to practice the Three Cheese Garden Pizza for my family and see how that goes! I will let you know. Chrissy

I agree with Debbie - I did not do this and subsequently I had to focus on the recipe not the people. I also recommend the 3-cheese pizza - it's easy to make and really yummy.

BTW, a clustermate of mine's monthly sales are between $7,000 and $10,000 every month and have been for 5 years....and she's been making the same recipe all that time! Yes, she has a lot of repeat hosts.

Have fun and good luck
