Non Cook Food Ideas for Fundraiser

[stfenyo]

I have been asked to do a fundraiser next month for this non profit organization. They asked if I could do a show that don't require the use of a stove, as they have none. I was thinking about the 30 minute microwave but they don't have one either and I'm not sure I wanna lug a microwave there either. Is there any recipes anyone can suggest that wouldn't require either.

Thanks

How about the Strawberry Cream Trifle? Strawberries in season now. Or, what about the mango confetti salsa to show off the MFP?

My favorite noncooking show go to recipe this time of year is the Clubhouse Chicken Squares. You can find the recipe in the All The Best Cookbook. I prepare the crust at home so it is cool by the time the show starts.

Garden Dip, all the best cookbook. Delish.

LOVE the clubhouse squares.

My fav. trifle is the lime berry mousse trifle. SB SS 07

You can purchase a portable burner at any KMart/Walmart for around $20 if you need a burner for something.

hot plates are $10 at Walgreens. I know, that's my "day" job and where I bought mine. My favorite noncooking recipe is the chocolate banana cream trifle from the SS09? Seasons Best. Not only is it easy, it's cheap.
