Jamaican Jerk Salad (with pasta) in the large SA square or large dots bowl
Clubhouse Chicken Squares in the rectangle baker
Brownies with s'mores toppings (chopped graham cracker, hershey bar, & some mini marshmallows, then brown in oven) in the deep dish baker
 
the cool veggie pizza is really quick and easy and yummy :)
 
Pork Tenderloin in 10 minutes; along with the BBQ Sauce and then the sandwiches. What's your script?

thanks guys for the ideas
 
TRIFLE!

Strawberry Cheesecake one or a brownie one!
 
I made lemonade in the family pitcher for a shower last week and everyone loved it!!
One can of frozen lemonade, 2 of the 2 liter bottles of ginger ale, throw in a sliced lemon and strawberries or raspberries (I did strawberries since they were less expensive).
YUM-O!!

Ok so this is what I have decided to make. Im making my pinwheels before hand, and a touchdown taco dip to throw in the oven while im doing my presentation (even though I wanted to avoid the oven but oh well), and then during the show I will be demoing the peannutty brownies. It sounds good. And also i will make some lemon aid in the picher. Thanks so much everyone.
 
The Peanutty Brownie Pizza has been very well received at several of my parties. I bake the Brownie on the pizza stone before the party, so that we don't lose the baking time, and heat up the hostess' kitchen. It is terribly rich, and at the last party, I had 12 guests, and still half of the pizza leftover.
The ladies just did not want to indulge in something so rich at 8:30PM. They got into the Taco dip and corn chips and lemonade in a big way. Several said they were diabetic and could not risk the dessert. They were under 50 in age, so that kind of surprised me.

It's also helpful to choose recipes that can be prepared in advance or cooked quickly during the show.

What types of recipes work best for a Mystery Host Show?

Recipes that are interactive and allow guests to participate are ideal for a Mystery Host Show.
