Honing Your Cooking Ritual

Posted on: 28 November 2016

If you are hosting a book club in your home and everyone wants to stay for dinner, there are things you can do with this short notice. This will allow you to make everyone full and happy without causing you too much stress. Below are two things you could do to help you get started.

Pizza Delivery

The easiest and quickest thing you can do is to order pizza and have it delivered to your home. Instead of purchasing the traditional cheese, sausage, and pepperoni pizza, consider ordering something different for your book club.

The pizza restaurant may have Hawaiian pizza, which is a pizza that has pineapples on it. There is pizza that has macaroni and cheese on top of it instead of the usual toppings. There is also chicken pizza, which traditionally has a white cheese sauce. Ask your book club members what they like and if they want to be a little adventurous and try something different.

If the pizza restaurant does not have these pizzas on their menu, ask them the different types of toppings they have so you can create your own unique pizzas for them to make for you. Pizza delivery can be both convenient and delicious. 

Breakfast

Sometimes it can be fun to have breakfast for dinner, and breakfast is generally quick to fix. Mix up some pancakes and serve them plain or you could add things like chocolate chips or blueberries in the mix. Add some pure mint extract to the pancake mix along with chocolate chips.

Sprinkle powdered sugar on top of the pancakes along with some fruit and add some whipped cream on top of it all. Cube up some potatoes, add some spices, and pop them in the oven and serve them with the pancakes.

Fry some eggs to go along with the pancakes and put some bowls of fruit on the table. You could use fruit like pineapple, strawberries, and blueberries. There is an easy egg casserole you could make in a hurry and everyone will love it.

Let everyone get in on the fun and help you make the breakfast. You could talk about the book you are discussing while you are getting everything ready to eat.

These are just two ideas you can use for a quick meal to satisfy everyone's hunger. Ask your friends of some other ideas in case this happens again in the future.
