Have you tried making One Pot Pasta in a baker?

[chefsteph07]

I'm doing one pot pasta for a show tonight and was wondering if anyone has condensed this to making it in the baker. I'm trying to cut out using the stove tonight.

ONE POT PASTA IN THE DCB

Brush inside of baker with basil oil ( shows silicone brush, march guest special)
add 1 container grape tomatoes( I use 2 cup easy read to hold till I add)
Add 2 carrots that you peel then use julienne or forged cutlery to slice into diagonal slices( also shows cutting board, with collapsible strainer )
add garlic with peeler and slicer being shown
add salt & pepper mills

micro 5 min

dcb comes back,
I take lid off and use mix n chop to break apart tomatoes

I add 2 cans chicken broth (can opener)
I add 1 box mini penne
I add 1 head of broccoli florets, chopped
I add 1 tbl greek rub or Italian seasoning

lid goes back on micro for 16-18 min



dcb comes back I add 1 pkg cream cheese from easy adj measure cup
parmesan cheese to top

whole menu costs less than 10.00 for ingredients

So, you don't have any issues with "thermal shock" adding the broth, etc to the hot baker?

UPDATE: I did this tonight, exactly as the recipe above states, and I sold TWO bakers outright! There were only 5 guests there, but she is at $400 in sales, I'm so excited. This was a WONDERFUL variation, and the only thing I did differently was I added some chicken to it after it was done. Everyone RAVED over it and wanted me to email them the recipe. Thank you soooo much Amysue, and I may be doing this again for some shows this summer! :sing:
