echtel Knows Recipes.
Years ago if you wanted a recipe you
called your mother. Or a neighbour. It's
what being part of a community was
all about. Luckily it still is. At Knechtel
we haven't forgotten we're part of the
community. So we share recipes too.
Each week we print a different recipe
right in our flyer. Recipes we get from
people like you. Everything from
Chicken Cacciatore to Cherries Jubilee.
Because we believe it's not enough to sell
food, you have to know how to prepare it.
So if you have a favourite recipe, or know
of a neighbour who does, send it in.
(See your Knechtel flyer for address.)
If your recipe is printed in our weekly
flyer, you'll receive a $25 Food Voucher,
good at your local Knechtel store.
And remember, the more family recipes
we know, the more reasons your family
will have to know Knechtel.
