But like Heather - I have been doing Salsa & Guac for all my Summer Shows - and I use the mix (maybe you could pick some up from me at the hospital tomorrow!
) and do the Salsa Fresca from pg 22 in the catalog.Oh - and All The Best is a collection of recipes from Season's Best Cookbooks - if that helps at all - they would be older ones, because that has been out for around 4-5 years.- 20,320
Quick - someone! What is the name of the website with all of the PC recipes on it? And why am I drawing a complete blank?
My DS wiped out all of my "Favorites" a couple weeks ago - so its not even on my computer anymore!

I do the salsa & guac, and just use a bag of tortilla chips for them, and then I do the Cool & Creamy Chocolate Fondue (also in the All The Best Cookbook) w/ baked Cinnamon Tortilla Chips (ATB again!) and Strawberries. That has pretty much been my show this summer so far!
The Chips I make at home, and just talk about the stoneware for a minute as I show them. Last show I sold 2 Deep Covered Bakers by just talking about it!
Several of my hosts have commented on how this was a perfect show for this time of the year! I've also had the best sales and bookings for any month this year doing this show!
