Anytime entertainment

You’ve bumped into friends at the gym or your first yoga class, and the conversation is showing no sign of slowing down. Wouldn’t it be great to have them over for dinner and drink or even just a snack? Go ahead: When you’ve stocked your kitchen pantry with the mix of goodies, ready to use equipment, and stashed a handful of quick recipes, you’re always on deck for a get together

STEP ONE is determining in advance exactly what you‘ll serve on short notice. The four recipes here bring millions of flavor from surprisingly few ingredients and come together in 15 minutes or less. And everything’s so easy to prepare that you can enjoy time with your friends while getting the food together, and still have fun!

STEP TWO is stocking up on the ingredients for your selected recipes. Work up a shopping list for your own favorite dishes. Stocking your shelves is simple when you go to the store with a game plan. Need helpful equipment – determine your needs. Before you step into a store you should have a good idea of just what equipment you need. This decision, of course, will depend on the foods or drinks you will prepare. A good food processor is about the best helping hand. You can also invest in the world’s first Sparkling Beverage system that carbonates all ingredients in the bottle, for intense pressure-infused flavor. With Bonne O, you can sparkle everything!  Water, fruit, herbs, tea, wine, spirits & sodas! The taste of real ingredients infused right in the bottle is fantastic and there is no CO2 tank required! Once you realize what a help this type of appliance will be throughout the year, you will definitely see it as a good investment. You will love using Bonne O every day for all of your beverages!

STEP THREE is about sharing the joys of good food, a perfect drink, and good company. Focus on those three things and you‘ll have everything you need for a wonderful time together.

READY FOR ANYTHING 

A slice of bread served with butter or jam is the simplest snack. And, when it’s fresh-baked, it’s a delicious treat, too. Keep a great testing loaf on hand and you’re that much closer to being ready for last-minute guests.
