Default source of inspiration & public food demos

Hi folks.

So I'm doing food demos for the produce dept of a large, bustling upscale market that features lots of local produce and organics. I can use just about ANYTHING in the store, and it's got an incredible selection of produce, cheese, fish, meats. Just awesome really.

I've been out of cooking for a couple years and I still have most my chops, but this is a new (and very fun) ball game, so far. With limited space and equipment to work with, I've been making some nice salads and some no-brainer stuff. I'm getting a burner tomorrow and plan on doing some sauted organic green beans, orange grape tomatoes w/ garlic and herbs.

I'm looking for a source for recipes that would be appropriate, such as being health, easy and adding some extra flair to drive sales. So I'm thinking of something like Art Culinare or ... I don't know, I could use some advice.

Tossing some slightly fancy little salads on the spot really attracts the ladies, I'll be definitely be doing more of those

So, any inspirational sources you care to mention?

There's a show from the UK called Market Kitchen which shows food along those lines, stressing organic products.

Try this site:

UKTV Food: Recipes: Market Kitchen

...might be what you're looking for. Good Luck!
