Text Box: Recipe of the week…

Dinner In A Pumpkin

1 medium pumpkin
2 lbs. Ground Beef [Add 1 ½ Tbsp. dry Onion Soup mix seasoning & 2 tsp. Chef Series Simply Garlic seasoning while cooking the ground beef. Drain & set aside.)
1 small onion, diced 					2 sticks of celery, diced 
2 Tbsp butter						¼ cup c soy sauce
2 Tbsp brown sugar 					1 4-oz can sliced mushrooms (drained)
1 can cream of chicken soup				2 cups hot cooked rice

Pre-heat oven to 375 degrees.  In Rock 'N Serve Medium Deep, place 2 cups rice and enough water to cover. Microwave on high for 13 minutes and set aside to cool.

Cut a lid for the pumpkin. Paint on a face with a magic marker or apply stickers when pumpkin is finished cooking.
Use the Ice cream scoop to remove the seeds and pulp. Shave off excess stringy pulp. Clean outside of pumpkin and rinse inside of pumpkin with cool water.  [Make sure no soap gets inside of pumpkin while cleaning, as it will affect the taste!]

Using the Quick Chef, dice onions and celery. Put the 2 tablespoons butter and diced veggies in a Rock 'N Serve Medium Shallow container with cover on, vent cap. Microwave on High for 3 minutes. Set aside. Use can opener to open cans. Mix soy sauce, brown sugar, mushrooms and soup in Large Mixing Bowl or Thatsa Bowl.  Add cooked veggies to bowl.  Add rice to mixture in bowl.  Add 2 lbs. of pre-cooked ground beef mixture. Stir everything well.
Spoon the mixture into the pumpkin. Place in a medium pan. Bake 1 hour until the pumpkin is tender. Scoop out to serve.

Goes well with a salad and another veggie of your choice. Or, why not serve inside tortillas! Maybe just add some Ranch Style beans!
Eating from the pumpkin makes for a FUN, conversation piece at the dinner table. ENJOY!

Modular Mates™ Oval Set Image Clarification

The image of the Modular Mates™ Oval containers on Page 35 of the Holiday 2007 Catalog is not the correct configuration for the set. The set description copy below the image is correct.

Adjust Microwave Cooking Time For Best TupperWave™ Recipe Results

Did you happen to notice the cooking tip that's included at the beginning of the TupperWave™ recipe book? This information will help you better demonstrate the products and help your Hosts avoid overcooking their meals.  "Every Stack meal in this cookbook was tested and cooks at 1,000 watt. All microwaves are different so sales force and hostesses need to check wattage of their own microwave at home first before cooking and adjust recipe time accordingly.

 

"Some microwave ovens may have hot spots which mean that some areas heat faster than others. Stirring, turning food over, rearranging pieces, or rotating the dish helps assure even cooking."

When cooking in the microwave, it's always better to set up less time first, check and add extra minutes to cooking as needed. If recipes come out dry, you may need to adjust the cooking time.

 

Clarification: Purchase-with-purchase Color In Flyer

Page 5 of the September-October Flyer incorrectly lists both Candy Cane and Spearmint as the colors for the $100 purchase-with-purchase product. The Rock 'N Serve® Large Shallow is available only in Spearmint. Please accept our apologies for any confusion this may cause.

The online versions of the flyer have been updated to show only Spearmint.
