Taste of Home Cooking School

Last night I attended a Taste of Home Cooking School, hosted at the Gwinnett Civic Center. This was my 3rd time attending the show, and just as enjoyable as ever! Everyone who attends received a goody bag filled with magazines, coupons, flyers and samples of products- this time we got a 4 oz. sample of Mahatma brown rice, and a 8 oz (juice box sized) of Kitchen Basics Chicken Stock.

The highlight of the night for me, was watching our ever- hilarious instructor, Michelle Roberts demonstrate how to cook about 10 items from the "Brand Name Cookbook" magazine that as included in our goody bag. Here's what Michelle demonstrated this year:

Buffalo Chex Mix
Upside Down Banana Pecan French Toast
Gingered Carrot Soup
Bacon, Cheddar and Chive Scones
Apricot Beef Stir Fry
Corn Bread Stuffed Turkey Breast
Sausage Stuffed Red Bell Peppers
Chicken Balsamico
Cookie Dough Truffles
French Cranberry-Apple Pie



By far, the most tempting treat of the night was the Cookie Dough Truffles.... the tip here (if you don't have a fancy schmancy candy-fork is to use a plastic fork and pop off the two middle tines so that the chocolate can drip down carefully.  (Truffle photo taken from the TOH website)


** I searched the TOH website for all these recipes, but only found a few so far, I'm assuming they'll publish the recipes after the cooking school tour, but I'm not sure.

Happy Cooking!
