Helping a Fire Victim: No-Cook Recipes for a Special Show

In summary, there are many easy meal ideas for someone who is not able to cook, such as pre-made salads or deli sandwiches, canned soups or frozen meals, and pre-packaged sides from the grocery store. Kitchen tools and appliances like slow cookers, electric can openers, and food processors can also make cooking easier. Meal preparation can be simplified by using pre-cut or pre-packaged ingredients, batch cooking, and asking for help. Healthy meal options include salads with pre-cooked protein, grilled or baked fish, and quinoa or brown rice bowls. And even without cooking, there are ways to have variety in meals by trying different cuisines, proteins, cooking methods, and seasonings.

I am doing a show for a lady whose house recently burned down. We're hoping to restock her kitchen but the place where she's staying now is extremely small so we're having to do the show at a local restaurant. Obviously I won't be able to do any cooking, but we will have a separate room to do the show and it has a sink and a counter.

We have decided to do a salsa & she's going to put together a few PC recipes to bring & will share the recipe with her guests.

I don't only want to do salsa though, does anybody have any ideas of a no bake, no microwave necessary, or anything like that recipe that we could do?
 
almost any trifle! Have the cake already made.. the rest is easy and doesn't require cooking.
 
One of the crescent roll pizza's (you cook the crust ahead of time and add the toppings)...
 
You can assemble or decorate just about any dessert like cupcakes! Or, as mentioned, assemble a trifle.Cold Stone ice cream bar if management will let you put your stone in their freezer first.
 
chicken clubhouse squares (in the all the best). Everything is precooked. Shows tons of products, feeds a lot of people.
 
Taffy Apple Pizza.....you can make the cookie crust ahead of time

I was going to suggest this - you can talk about cooking the chicken in the DCB and chop the cucumber with the MFP.
 
yep...I say the clubhouse chicken squares..love this recipe
