My open house is today - I have 30 RSVPs yes, to kind of give you an idea of how many people I'm serving:
Cran-Raspberry Fizz
2 batches of Jerk Chicken Nachos
Peppery Pecan Brie
mini-BBQ pork tenderloin sandwiches (I'm demoing this about mid-way through)
Pumpkin Trifle (it was a gingerbread pumpkin trifle but I couldn't find gingerbread cake mix, so I used spice cake)
Double batch of Double Chocolate Cinnamon Dip w/ Cinnamon Chips
Warm Nutty Caramel Brownies
Spritz Cookies
Hope that helps!

For example, use the Food Chopper for chopping ingredients, the Stoneware for baking, or the Mix 'N Chop for making dips. Highlighting these products during the event will not only enhance your dishes but also provide a live demonstration of their functionality.
Should I provide recipes for the food I serve?
Yes, providing recipes is a great idea! It allows guests to recreate the dishes at home and gives them a tangible takeaway from the event. You can print the recipes on Pampered Chef-branded cards or handouts, which can also serve as a reminder of the products used in the recipes.
How can I accommodate guests with dietary restrictions?
To accommodate guests with dietary restrictions, consider offering a variety of food options, including vegetarian, gluten-free, and dairy-free choices. Clearly label all food items and provide ingredient lists to help guests make informed decisions. This inclusivity can enhance the experience and make everyone feel welcome.
What is the best way to present the food at my Open House event?
Presentation is key at an Open House event. Use Pampered Chef serving platters, bowls, and utensils to create an appealing display. Arrange the food in an organized manner, and consider using decorative elements like fresh herbs or colorful garnishes. A well-presented food table will attract guests and encourage them to sample your offerings.
