Newbie Seeking Creative Appetizer Recipes Using Starter Kit Items

In summary, a new consultant is seeking recipe ideas for an upcoming party. They have already used the recipes from their starter kit and are not interested in trying artichoke or mole pizza. Another consultant suggests making a three cheese garden pizza, which can be found on the PC website. They also recommend looking at the last two recipes in each section of the current Seasons Best, as they are geared toward the starter kit. Other suggestions include checking with the host for additional products that can be used and having fun at the party.

I Just started less than a month ago, and i have a show next Friday, Was wondering if anyone had any recipes that can use the Starter Kit items, i have a few other products, but the lady i'm doing the show for already went to one show,
i don't want to use the recipes from the starter kit, artichoke isn't my thing, and the strawberry's i have done twice already. Mole Pizza...don't wanna try that yet. any ideas? i think she wants appetizer type food.

Thanks in advance
 
Do the three cheese garden pizza. Unless they've changed the pizza for the starter kit, that was in there. If it's not, do a search on PC website. It's fabulous and uses just your starter kit items.

Thanks i'll try that, i was looking at it earlier, but wasn't sure if i should go ahead and try it...any other ideas will be helpful too as i have another party next tuesday
 
If you look at every Seasons Best, the last two recipes in each section are supposed to be specifically geard toward the Starter Kit. In the current SB those recipes are:
Appetizer - Creamy Crab-Filled Potato Nests
Chicken Mole Pizza
Main Dish - Mexican Chicken Napoleans
Desserts - Mini Carrot Cake Cups (*notice it tells you to put the frosting in a resealable bag instead of the Easy Accent Decorator)
Chewy Chocolate-Coconut Joy Bars
Caramel-Filled Cashew Cups
Chocolate-Banana Cream Trifle (if you have the trifle bowl or can borrow one)
 
Another idea is check with your host and see what products she has. If she's already been to a show or two, chances are she has some products in her kitchen that you can use. This also means that you have less to carry to her show.

Have fun & best wishes!
