My host for Saturday wants to make one of these two dishes for our interactive show. My problem is that I don't have the Julienne Peeler or the Veggie Peeler or the Egg Slicer. She's not sure which one she's going to decide on...she's going shopping tomorrow. What can I use instead of those tools? Or should I try to borrow them from my director? I haven't done either of those recipes but I hear that they are good. Thanks for any tips you can offer!
 
I guess borrow them from someone, if you don't have them.


It's probably too late for this show, but I don't let my hosts pick the recipe. Oh, they THINK they are picking the recipe, but they aren't really.

I ask them what type of show they want - and offer the different theme shows - and then I tell them what recipe goes with each theme. So, if they choose a chocolate show, they get Turtle Fudge Skillet Cake, or if they choose Real Food, they get the 30 Minute Chicken and Biscuit bites, etc......

That way, I stay in control of the recipe, and the demo!

This time it's totally my fault. She's vegetarian and very health conscious so I offered her a couple recipes that I thought looked good. I should have looked more closely at them before I offered. Thanks for the tip though
