About the Taste of Home Cooking School The Taste of Home Cooking School is America’s leading cooking school program. We inspire more than 300,000 passionate home chefs each year at 300 events across the country. Our professional culinary specialists demonstrate recipes, cooking methods, practical kitchen tips and plating techniques in an entertaining and educational environment. At the Taste of Home Cooking School show, attendees experience two hours of exciting recipe demonstrations using seasonal ingredients that are easily found at the local grocery store. We show step-by-step how to create satisfying and flavorful dishes. All Taste of Home Cooking School attendees receive a valuable gift bag filled with money-saving coupons, product samples and a Taste of Home Cooking School magazine. Additionally, attendees are entered to win one of a number of exciting door prizes and the chance to take home a dish that will have been prepared during the show. The Taste of Home Cooking School has a storied history, beginning in 1948 with a business venture that was originally called Homemaker Schools. One

busy home economist loaded up her station wagon and drove across the Midwest, stopping at small-town appliance dealerships to conduct cooking classes for dozens of “homemakers.” The Cooking School was acquired by Taste of Home magazine in the 90s, and now, more than 60 years later, our nine culinary specialists conduct hundreds of shows across the country for audiences in the thousands. Our mission remains the same, though: We share best loved recipes from one home cook to another. We invite you to come join us, and “Let’s Get Cooking!”

About Taste of Home Taste of Home is a go-to resource for the holidays and any time of the year for information on food, cooking and entertaining. Each year, thousands of great home cooks from across the United States and Canada submit more than 40,000 recipes, of which 3,000 are published in Taste of Home magazines and online, making Taste of Home one of the largest and most successful practitioners of user generated content. Before being published, every recipe is tested in the Taste of Home Test Kitchen to ensure that it can be prepared with affordable, everyday ingredients from regular grocery stores. Taste of Home content is available in print; online at Tasteofhome.com; in books; via digital download on iPad, mobile apps and Kindle; and Facebook, Twitter and Pinterest.

Moments WOW

with Bisquick

The power to create is in the yellow box!

5

ÂŽ

From pancakes to sweet treats to savory meals, America’s favorite pancake and baking mix continues to deliver the great taste, ease and versatility that gives families the power to create. Since 1931, Bisquick has been a “wow maker� of pancakes and assisting in putting smiles on family’s faces. Today, moms, dads and kids are expanding their horizons and embracing the chaos and fun in the kitchen, making everything from chicken strips to pizzas to fruit-flavored shortcakes with a twist.

Did you know? Bisquick was originally intended as a biscuit mix. However, since its introduction, the Betty Crocker Kitchens developed recipes for other baking occasions such as meat pies, coffee breads, pancakes, nutbreads, shortcakes, dumplings, cookies, waffles, velvet crumb cakes, muffins, cobblers, and many others. Recipes for these were printed on the package. It was advertised as a variety baking mix and for a period of years was advertised with the slogan, “a world of baking in a box.� Today, that power to create is still in the yellow box, providing a world of baking adventures that are “doable� for the entire family. Start the morning with pancakes and end the day with Impossibly Easy Mini Chicken Pot Pies filled with peas and carrots – a delightful dinner made using Original Bisquick mix. You will certainly create a “wow� moment with this, putting a spark in your family’s eyes and joy on their faces. For more recipe ideas and tips, visit www.bisquick.com.

Impossibly Easy Chicken Pot Pie Prep time: 20 minutes Start to finish: 60 minutes Yield: 6 servings Ingredients for Chicken Mixture 1 tablespoon vegetable oil 1 lb. boneless skinless chicken breasts, cut into bite-size pieces 1 medium onion, chopped (1/2 cup) 1/2 cup chicken broth 1 cup frozen peas and carrots 1/2 teaspoon salt 1/4 teaspoon pepper 1/4 teaspoon ground thyme 1 cup shredded Cheddar cheese (4 oz.) Ingredients for Baking Mixture 1/2 cup Original BisquickŽ mix 1/2 cup milk 2 eggs Directions Heat oven to 375°F. Spray 12 regular-size muffin cups with cooking spray.

In 10-inch nonstick skillet, heat oil over medium-high heat. Cook chicken in oil 5 to 7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until chicken is no longer pink in center. Add onion and chicken broth; heat to simmering. Add frozen vegetables and seasonings. Heat until hot, stirring occasionally until almost all liquid is absorbed. Cool 5 minutes; stir in cheese.

In medium bowl, stir baking mixture ingredients with whisk or fork until blended. Spoon 1 scant tablespoon baking mixture into each muffin cup. Top with about 1/4 cup chicken mixture. Spoon 1 tablespoon baking mixture onto chicken mixture in each muffin cup.

Bake 25 to 30 minutes or until toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. Cool 5 minutes. With thin knife, loosen sides of pies from pan; remove from pan and place top sides up on cooling rack. Cool 10 minutes longer, and serve.

STOP and POP in Flavor Chopping

Dorot launches perfect portion size, pre-chopped herbs Foodies and cost conscious consumers are thrilled to learn of the launch of Dorot, a line of fresh culinary herbs that are chopped and quickly frozen in convenient pre-portioned ice cube trays. Now available all over the U.S, Dorot brings the benefits of farm-fresh herbs without the hassle, expense and short shelf life of fresh produce.

The Perfect Guacamole Ingredients 2 large ripe avocados 4 tbsp soft cream cheese 3 tsp lemon juice 3 Dorot Garlic cubes 2 Dorot Cilantro cubes 1 Dorot Parsley Cube Salt & pepper

A shower of fresh herbs automatically perks up any meal and now they are easier than ever to include on the daily menu. Even if unexpected guests come by and there’s no time to run to the store, Dorot is on hand to help make spontaneous cooking great. Dorot’s slim trays fit easily in a cramped freezer and can last up to 24 months so fresh herbs are within reach at all times. Not only is Dorot convenient, but it’s time-saving as well. Avoid cutting, chopping and crushing; just pop a cube (no defrosting needed) and add your favorite herb to a soup, stir-fry or dip. Waste-conscious cooks who fret about buying unnecessarily large quantities when they just need a small amount will appreciate the perfect portion size. Plus, Dorot keeps kitchens clean as well, since there are no dirty knives or cutting boards to wash – and no more garlic fingers! In addition to convenience, Dorot is an affordable option in these economically challenging times. With Dorot’s long-lasting shelf life and a suggested retail price of approximately $2-$3, each herb works out to only 25 cents a month. Healthy minded consumers will be pleased to note that Dorot is all natural (free from preservatives, residues of pesticides, cholesterol, saturated fats, and food coloring), NON GMO and gluten-free. For maximum results with minimal effort, Dorot is the answer. Flavors include Crushed Garlic, Crushed Ginger, Chopped Basil, Ciwlantro, Parsley, Chili, Onion and Dill. Dorot Fresh Herbs can be found in many grocery stores. More information is available at www.mydorot.com or on Facebook MYDOROT.

Directions 1. Peel & puree the avocado. 2. Add the cream cheese, lemon juice & Dorot herb cubes and mix thoroughly. 3. Season to taste. * Serve with chips or vegetable sticks.

Put Eggland’s Best Eggs at the Top of Your Grocery List

Looking for a recipe to fall in love with this fall? Try this Sweet Potato & Turkey Frittata recipe courtesy of Eggland’s Best.

America’s No. 1 Branded Egg Helps At-Home Chefs Add More Nutrition to Their Favorite Meals Eggs are commonly found on grocery lists across America, however not all eggs are nutritionally equal. This fall, Eggland’s Best is teaming up with Taste of Home Cooking Schools to show everyday cooks why their grocery lists should read “Eggland’s Best eggs.” To ensure their eggs provide better nutrition, Eggland’s Best uses a unique hen feed that is all-natural and all-vegetarian. When compared to ordinary eggs, Eggland’s Best eggs contain more important nutrients such as 10 times more vitamin E, twice as much vitamin D and omega-3’s, and 38 percent more lutein. In addition to producing a nutritionally superior egg, Eggland’s Best provides at-home chefs the opportunity to cook with farm-fresh eggs that consistently deliver on taste and performance. In fact, Eggland’s Best has received numerous awards over the years including this year’s Prevention magazine’s “100 Cleanest Packaged Food Awards” and KIWI magazine’s “2013 Best Kid Breakfast Food Award.”

Sweet Potato & Turkey Frittata Yield: 6 Servings

Directions

Ingredients

In a medium bowl, blend the eggs, salt, pepper, and skim milk and beat until eggs are fluffy. Stir in cheese and set aside. Spray a large, oven-proof skillet with nonstick cooking spray and heat over medium-high heat. Add potatoes and turkey in the skillet, stirring until just warm. Pour eggs over potato and turkey mixture, stirring until eggs just begin to set on the bottom, but are slightly uncooked on top. Turn on oven broiler, and place pan in oven. Cook for 3-4 minutes or until eggs are completely set and top of frittata is lightly golden brown. Cool for 5 minutes before serving.

6 Eggland’s Best eggs (large) 1/4 cup skim milk 1 cup sweet potatoes, mashed or cubed, already cooked 1 cup turkey breast, shredded 1/2 cup mozzarella cheese, part skim 1 teaspoon salt 1 teaspoon pepper Nonstick cooking spray

Meet Taste of Home Culinary Specialist Jamie Dunn! Jamie’s love of cooking was sparked while taking 8th grade Home Economics, and her parents also encouraged her interest along the way. Jamie’s dad was an occasional cook but always eager to try new recipes, and his enthusiasm rubbed off. Jamie went on to attend Oklahoma State University where she earned a Bachelor of Science degree in Vocational Home Economics Education and Community Service. From there she has worked as a culinary instructor for Tulsa Technology and Bama Cooking School, as well as a high school Home Economics teacher. As a seasoned Taste of Home Cooking School instructor, Jamie looks forward to sharing time-saving cooking tips and the latest kitchen gadgets with cooking school audiences. One of her favorite gadgets is a pair of battery operated salt and pepper grinders. Each Cooking School show is live, so Jamie says you never know what to expect. “Years ago at one of my first shows, one of my onstage assistants accidentally set something on fire and was running around the stage with it,” Jamie shares. “It was definitely an unexpected, memorable moment!” When she’s not on the road with the Taste of Home Cooking School, Jamie enjoys baking – especially desserts. She makes pies and candies for the holidays. And, one of her favorite dessert recipes is Layered Turtle Cheesecake. A native of Oklahoma, Jamie lives with her husband and three sons in the town of Owasso. She explains, “It’s a great place to live because it’s very family oriented and it’s a great community for kids.”

JOHNSONVILLE SAUSAGE AND TASTE OF HOME ENHANCE FLAVOR TO COMFORT FOOD As fall and winter approach, “comfort foods” become something families seek when looking for that next hearty meal. With this in mind, Johnsonville Sausage is teaming up with the Taste of Home Cooking Schools to introduce fans to other protein solutions that will enhance a comforting classic meal – lasagna. Johnsonville will bring one of its 5-star lasagna recipes to cooking enthusiasts, introducing its Italian sausage as a better meat source to enhance flavor. Lasagna – with its alternating layers of pasta, cheese, sauce, meat and/or vegetables – is most flavorful with Italian sausage, says one Johnsonville recipe reviewer. “This recipe is very flavorful and even as a first-time lasagna maker, it came out perfectly. I found it very easy and simple to follow. The sausage in place of ground beef makes all the difference. This is definitely a keeper.” Johnsonville Italian Sausage – available in three flavors such as sweet, made with basil; hot, made with crushed red pepper; or mild, a more traditional version – is a flexible protein source that boosts flavor to a host of different recipes. While other meats require sauces and spices to flavor a dish, Italian sausage delivers the flavor all on its own. Made with only premium cuts of pork and a perfect blend of spices, Johnsonville Italian Sausage brings the level of quality confident cooks are looking for when creating their families’ favorite “keeper” recipes. Whether it’s elevating the flavor in a lasagna recipe or adding some kick to traditional sausage stuffing at the holidays, Johnsonville Italian Sausage is a great solution.

Johnsonville Italian Sausage Lasagna Start to Finish: 45 min Yield: 6-8 servings Ingredients 12 lasagna noodles, uncooked2 tablespoons olive oil 1 package (16 oz.) JOHNSONVILLE® Italian Ground Sausage (your choice of Sweet, Hot or Mild) 1 medium onion 2 cloves garlic, chopped 1 jar (24 oz.) marinara sauce 4 cups ricotta cheese 1 large egg ½ cup grated parmesan cheese 2 cups fresh spinach, lightly packed and chopped 2 cups mozzarella cheese, shredded 1 teaspoon dried oregano Directions Preheat oven to 350°F Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Cook pasta until al dente. Drain, lightly oil and set aside. In a medium saucepan, sauté the sausage in olive oil, crumbling with a wooden spoon, until no longer pink. Add onion and garlic, and continue sautéing for another four minutes until the sausage is cooked through. Add marinara sauce to the sausage mixture and set aside. In a medium bowl, blend ricotta cheese, egg, ¼ cup of the grated parmesan cheese and the chopped spinach; set aside. Coat a 9x13 inch baking dish with olive oil and spread 1 cup of the sauce mixture on the bottom. Top with 3 lasagna noodles. Spread ¼ of the ricotta cheese mixture on the noodles and layer on 1 cup of the sauce mixture. Sprinkle ½ cup mozzarella cheese over this. Repeat this process three more times, starting with the noodles and finish with the remaining ¼ cup of grated parmesan cheese. Sprinkle with oregano.
