Taste of Home Cooking School event and Giveaway! (UT location)

 ~Closed~
Giveaway Ends at 8:00 Tonight!

The Taste of Home Cooking School will be at the Provo Utah Marriott, April 19th. You can click HERE to find a Taste of Home Cooking School near you.

If you've never been to a Taste of Home Cooking school there is a Taste of Home Magazine Chef who comes and presents a 2 hour demo of easy/gourmet recipes to make on a budget.  I LOVE that idea....easy + gourmet + budget = my type of cooking!  I'm excited to attend the cooking school to get some new ideas.  My family can only take so many "taco" or "spaghetti nights" :)

Here is a sample recipe for the Carrot-Spice Cake with-Caramel-Frosting  to the right. Doesn't it look amazing? The ingredients are very basic, things you probably have in your pantry already.


There are a ton of Boutiques to browse through starting at 3:00 that afternoon and the Taste of Home Cooking School starts at 7:00 and goes until 9.

There are tons of prizes and everyone who attends gets a goody bag filled with samples, coupons, magazines etc. YAY FOR FREEBIES!! :)

    Unfortunately, my "go to meal" is tacos and spaghetti as well. To avoid taco and spaghetti overload this year, I challenged myself to make 1 new recipe a week...all year! So far I have done really good and only had a couple I didn't like. I would love to be able to go to this!! Almost all my new recipes are Taste of Home!!

    To watch the challenge go to aprongstringandbabythings.blogspot.com

    Have a great day!!
