If you like to try out new products and host parties, you should look into HouseParty.com. Manufacturers that want to promote a product work with House Party to get those products out to people who are interested in hosting parties. Previously, I have hosted a Shutterfly Photobook party, a Febreze Set & Refresh party, and a Huggies Pull Ups Potty Dance party. Each time, I got free products to share with guests, plus coupons and idea booklets for them to take home. They all went really well.
In October of last year, I applied and was selected to be a Johnsonville Italian Pizza Possibilities party hostess. I am already a big fan of Johnsonville sausage and brats, but had never used the sausage for pizza, so this was a good fit for me to try something new. Unfortunately, some things came up in life and I wasn’t able to host an actual party. So, now that things have slowed down a bit, I’m able to tell you about Johnsonville and share some of the recipes that were in the booklet with the party.
To start, let’s first talk about what I received in my party kit.
Shown above is an apron, recipe booklet, oven mitt, pizza cutter, paper plates, napkins, and a spoon for spreading pizza sauce. Also included were coupons for me to get free packages of Johnsonville Italian Sausage and Sargento shredded cheese to use for the party, plus $1 off coupons for the party guests (which I did distribute to some friends). If you would like to see the recipes in the booklet, you can find them here.
So, tonight I made the Sausage Florentine Pizza. I didn’t have mushrooms, but used onions instead. I used a homemade pizza sauce for it (recipe coming soon), and because my sauce had lots of fresh spices in it, I did not add the oregano and basil called for in their recipe. I also used fresh spinach that I chopped instead of using frozen spinach. I used 2 packages of pizza crust mix to make the pizza a little larger, on one of my baking sheets, so I also used more sauce, spinach, and cheese than what their recipe calls for. It was great and the family loved it!
I’m not sure which recipe I will try next, but they all sound delicious! So, stay tuned to see what I pick.
