Have a piece for me! I don't think I will be able to make them this weekend.

It was very good and I ate your piece too!

My only concern is that it does not show a lot of products. I thought about when it was cooking doing a lime and cucumber demo to show some more products.

I made it at my show this past Friday! I had a lot of prep done (in prep bowls)...i added a chopped shallot to the mayo mixture so I could use the chopper. I also added Ital seas mix to the mayo. I made it on the round stone... I used a TON of products. Microplane for the cheese, shears for the basil...measure all for the mayo...spoons for the seasoning mix...chopper...forged cutlery for the toms...batter bowl for mayo mixture (next time I am going to use the SS mixing bowls)
It was a good show!!!
Good Luck!

I was trying to come up with something for the chopper, I was thinking of just chopping my basil.

How much italian seasoning did you add? I like our Italian seasoning in small amounts but not large amounts. It is so strong.

I guess I am just comparing it to a recipe like Chicken Clubhouse Squares where I feel like I am using just about every tool I have. But I am getting tired of making those.

I think I used 1 tsp. I only added it to show the measuring spoons and talk about the Pantry items, 1/2 t. would be fine..

ooh, let me know if it works...I have never tried chopping basil w/ the chopper. I always cut it.

I have chopped parsley before and it worked great.

Are the Basil Squares easy to do? I have been thinking about this one.

VERY easy! I just made them for my dads bday party Monday night. My kids absolutley loved them, too....
 
I usually snip the parsley in a prep bowl with the kitchen shears...i like that the prep bowl is small and DEEP... I'll have to try the food chopper...I think my husband uses the FC.
I've heard to use the pizza cutter for fresh herbs..anyone try that?
 
One of my favorite recipes to demo is the Chicken Enchilada Ring (it is posted in the files section on this site). It is really delicious and has a big "wow" factor. Try it, you'll like it!

At a show for a simple second recipe, I like the hot pizza dip.
 
LOVE the Tomato Basil Squares and Touchdown Taco Dip - thank you to whoever brought it up first - I haven't had it in ages!!!! That also reminded me of the Broccoli Ham Ring...that is REALLY good. ...I never used to like broccoli when I first made it but you chop it so fine in the chopper that you don't get the texture and it tastes great! I don't know if the Broccoli Ham Ring is in a newer book...
 
:( Looking now for my broccoli ham recipe because I'm now hungry! I think it was in the Pampered Chef Favorites, but I can only find my Pampered Chef Favorites II...so much for the organizer on my shelf...
 
Now you have me hungry for the ham and brocolli ring! If someone has the recipe please post it. Thanks.
 
Looking on the PC site now... !!!!!
 
Not on the website - must be told old...getting sad...went through my cookbooks - need to go downstairs and find the rest...unless someone can save me and post it! :(
 
I'll look around online too!
 
YEAH! Found it!!!

Broccoli Ham Ring

4 oz. ham, chopped
4 oz. fresh broccoli, chopped
1/4 C. onion, chopped
1/2 C. fresh parsley, chopped
1 C. grated Swiss cheese
2 T. Dijon-style mustard
1 tsp. lemon juice
2 packages refrigerated crescent rolls

Preheat oven 350ºF.

Coarsely chop ham, broccoli and onion. Add parsley, cheese, mustard and lemon juice to ham mixture; mix well. Unroll crescent dough separate into 16 triangles. Arrange triangles in a circle on a 13 inch round baking stone with wide ends of triangles overlapping in the center and points toward the outside. (There should be a 5-inch diameter opening in the center of Stone.)

Scoop ham mixture evenly onto widest end of each triangle. Bring outside points of triangles up over filling and tuck under wide ends of dough at center of ring. (Filling will not be completely covered.)

Bake 25-30 minutes or until golden brown.
 
Brocolli Ham RingHere we go--I found it on the PC Recipe Site that Joyce has:

Broccoli Ham Ring

4 oz. ham, chopped
4 oz. fresh broccoli, chopped
1/4 C. onion, chopped
1/2 C. fresh parsley, chopped
1 C. grated Swiss cheese (about 170g/6 oz.)
2 T. Dijon-style mustard
1 tsp. lemon juice
2 pkg. (226g/8 oz.) refrigerated crescent rolls

Preheat oven 350ºF.

Coarsely chop ham, broccoli and onion. Add parsley, cheese, mustard and lemon juice to ham mixture; mix well. Unroll crescent dough separate into 16 triangles. Arrange triangles in a circle on a 13 round baking stone with wide ends of triangles overlapping in the center and points toward the outside. (There should be a 5-inch diameter opening in the center of Stone.)

Scoop ham mixture evenly onto widest end of each triangle. Bring outside points of triangles up over filling and tuck under wide ends of dough at center of ring. (Filling will not be completely covered.) Bake 25-30 minutes or until golden brown
 
That's funny--Janet and I got it at the same time!
 
Cool - we both found it! Yum! Time to go make a late dinner!!!!
 
Let me know how it comes out! I'm out of crescent rolls!
 
I had to substitute mozzarella for swiss because I didn't have swiss...I like the flavor of the swiss better. Had to leave out the parsley too - didn't want to use dried and ruin it totally. I forgot how much I missed making this one. I think I'll keep it handy for when I start shows soon! Nice to do some of the old classics.
 
I'd probably make it without the onions and parsley. I make the chicken club without the parsley when I make it for us.
 
This one was made to demonstrate some of the classic tools...stone, batter bowls, chopper for broccoli, kitchen shears for parsley, cheese grater on swiss, meaure-all for ham, spatula for stirring, scoops to place neatly on crescent rolls... ...just for anyone interested in using it...
 
Harriet - ever try the turkey/cranberry version?
 
I have had it but never made it. I am mixed on the dry cranberries. I liked it but didn't love it, if you know what I mean, Janet.
 
Hmm...maybe will try it then sometime if I'm bored (yeah right!) - spotted it in an older Season's Best I have. I have real cranberries sitting in my freezer, maybe those would make it taste better.
 
The frozen cranberries may be better. The turkey cranberry version is in All the Best cookbook. Do you have that cookbook? It's one of my favorite PC cookbooks.
 
I have the stoneware one, and have all the old Season's Best and Favorites. I found it in a Season's Best 2000 cookbook. I'll check out the All the Best one though...I think I've looked at it before and was considering it.
 
All the Best even has the directions on making the wreaths, braids, etc. If you sign on you can use that as a reference and buying tool!
 

Frequently Asked Questions

What is your favorite stoneware recipe for baking?

One of my favorite stoneware recipes is for a classic lasagna. The stoneware distributes heat evenly, ensuring that the noodles cook perfectly and the cheese melts beautifully. Simply layer cooked noodles, marinara sauce, ricotta, mozzarella, and your choice of meat or vegetables, then bake until bubbly and golden.

Can you share a quick stoneware recipe for busy weeknights?

Absolutely! A one-pan stoneware chicken and vegetable bake is perfect for busy nights. Just place seasoned chicken breasts on the stoneware, surround them with chopped vegetables like bell peppers, zucchini, and onions, drizzle with olive oil, and bake until the chicken is cooked through and the veggies are tender. It’s easy and delicious!

What is a unique stoneware recipe that showcases its versatility?

Try making a stoneware pizza! The stoneware retains heat exceptionally well, giving you a crispy crust. Roll out your pizza dough, add your favorite sauce, toppings, and cheese, then bake until the crust is golden. You can experiment with different toppings to suit your taste!

Are there any stoneware recipes that are great for entertaining?

Yes! A stoneware baked brie is a fantastic option for entertaining. Simply place a wheel of brie in the stoneware, top it with your choice of fruit preserves or nuts, and bake until it’s gooey. Serve it with crackers or sliced baguette for an impressive appetizer that’s easy to prepare.

What dessert can I make in stoneware?

A delicious option is a stoneware apple crisp. Slice fresh apples and toss them with sugar and cinnamon, then top with a mixture of oats, flour, butter, and brown sugar. Bake until the apples are tender and the topping is golden brown. It’s a comforting dessert that pairs perfectly with ice cream!
