I need something to prepare for the Demo tonight at my meeting!
I have no idea of what I am going to make!
It is 15 mins to 2 here and I gotta leave by 5pm!:eek:
I have 2 things of crescent rolls, I have some chicken breasts that I was going to make for dinner, I have some refrigerated easter cookies (but if I make those and take them, my kids will have a fit!)
Any suggestions????

no broccoli
 
The Chicken and Broccoli Braid is Super Easy. or try the Aloha pizza. You can roll the crescent out like a pizza crust. Use veggies, pineapple, Chicken. It's in the seasons' Best 07.. For a quick dessert if you have the rice cooker 9min molten lava cake OR bake a cake in any stone ant top it with a mix of Cheesecake flavored instant pudding, milk & cool whip. You can tint it for some color. This is very lite and sells a ton of stones because it takes litterally 5 minutes to thro together. Good Luck:)

JUST switch the Pepper for PINEAPPLE
1/2 cup barbecue sauce
1/2 cup diced green bell pepper
1/4 cup thinly sliced red onion
1 package (10 ounces) refrigerated pizza crust
1 1/2 cups (6 ounces) shredded Colby & Monterey Jack cheese blend, divided
2 cups chopped cooked chicken
1. Preheat oven to 425°F. Roll pizza crust into a 12-inch circle on Classic Round Stone using lightly floured Baker's Roller™. Sprinkle crust with 1 cup of the cheese.

2. In Classic Batter Bowl, combine chicken and barbecue sauce; toss to coat. Dice bell peppers using Chef's Knife. Thinly slice red onion using Ultimate Slice & Grate fitted with adjustable thin slicing blade. Top crust with chicken mixture, bell pepper and onion. Sprinkle with remaining 1/2 cup cheese.

3. Bake 15-20 minutes or until crust is golden brown.

For a 15-minute Pampered Chef meeting, consider showcasing a simple recipe that requires minimal prep time.

Focus on demonstrating one or two key products to keep it concise.

How can I effectively engage my audience during a quick demo?

Engagement can be achieved by asking questions throughout the demo, encouraging participants to share their own cooking tips, and inviting them to try out the products. Use storytelling to connect the products to real-life scenarios, and consider incorporating a fun interactive element, such as a quick taste test or a giveaway.

What products should I highlight in a short demo?

Choose products that are versatile and easy to demonstrate within a short timeframe. Popular options include the Food Chopper, the Mix 'N Chop, and the Quick Slice. These items are not only practical but also visually appealing, making them great for quick demonstrations.

How can I prepare for a quick demo to ensure it runs smoothly?

Preparation is key for a successful quick demo. Gather all necessary ingredients and tools beforehand, practice your presentation to stay within the time limit, and set up your workspace to minimize distractions. Having a clear outline of your demo will help you stay focused and organized.

What should I do if I run out of time during the demo?

If you find yourself running out of time, prioritize the most important points you want to convey. You can also invite attendees to ask questions after the demo or offer to follow up with additional information. Keeping a timer visible can help you manage your time effectively during the presentation.
