Demonstrative Speech Example
How to make “Apple-Yogurt Light Delight,” by B. Turalija


Introduction: something about the ‘product.’ Examples: background, why you like it, why is it good, why you think your audience should learn about it.
Attention Grabber: “An apple a day take doctor away” [proverb] and “Drink your milk” [milk ad slogan]. Everyone in the Western world know these. Both apples and milk, the low-fat version, are high in nutritional value and low in calories. If you care about nutrition but don’t want to eat something that tastes terrible, this recipe is perfect for you: it super healthy and delicious. The added benefit: you make it in a jiffy – perfect for a busy student. You do your body and your mind a huge favour by eating this little delight a few times a week.
(Enough of empty talk, let’s get busy here – transition)
First, you’ll learn about the simple kitchen equipment you need; second, about the few ingredients you need; third, I’ll show you how to make it;finally, I’ll show you how you can serve it in an attractive way.

Equipment: a mixing bowl, knife for peeling and chopping apples, spoon for stirring yogurt and mixing it with chopped apples. Cutting board, optional.
Attractive serving bowls/glasses.

Ingredients (for 8 people): 2-3 containers of yogurt (about 150-200 g total), 4 apples of any kind, washed, peeled, and chopped; Optional for toppings: mueslix, corn flakes, chocolate or vanilla powder, chopped nuts, and the like.

Procedure: wash the apples, peel them, cut them in fours, core them, and chop them. Put them into the mixing bowl. Open yogurt containers, stir the yogurt and pour over the apples. Mix lightly. Leave in the fridge for a couple of hours to chill.

Ways of serving: you can simply spoon out one serving of the Apple-Yogurt Light Delight into an attractive bowl of glass. As an option you can top it with whatever topping you like.

Conclusion: This easy to make recipe is perfect for people who care about what they put into their body but still love tasty food. You will get many vitamins and minerals in a simple serving of the Apple Yogurt Light Delight, regardless when and how you eat it, as a dessert after your main course, as a late afternoon (or even late night) snack, or even as breakfast. Instead of apples you can use strawberries, blueberries, peaches, pears – any juicy tasty fruit would do. Remember: good nutrition is essential because only a healthy body can contain a healthy mind!
