It takes a lot of work preparing for a television segment, especially when the segment involves showcasing recipes. Weeks before the segment was taped I brainstormed what recipes to share. A few days before the segment I went grocery shopping and did a trial run with all the recipes. Fortunately, all of the recipes turned out as I hoped. Lastly, the night before the segment I spruced up some of the recipes I was able to save over and recreated the others. In between the recipe prep I rehearsed some of what I hoped to say during the segment.
The recipes I featured were:
- Christmas Ornament Vegetable Tray
- Tuna Macaroni and Cheese Cups (recipe coming soon)
- Cauliflower Mash
- Healthier Cranberry Trifle
