I found a recipe for Beetroot Caviar on the internet so will give this a try this afternoon.  All the ingredients are on the bench ready to go. :)

Didn't go shopping this morning as usual as I had my last visit to the dentist for my crown. However I called in for some food for the challenge on the way home.
I'm ready to go.

I hope they taste good. I'll probably do them over today, tomorrow and Friday.

Yum Judy. I love that recipe. Cookie this is intriguing.

I could not find any  decent mushrooms today but I did get a big beet.  Need to find some time to hunt down a recipe.

Love that recipe chookie.

Yet another gorgeous sounding recipe, Judy.  Definitely going to try a vegan version of this one.

Would you believed I have changed my mind already.  :D I have some Beetroot in the AF roasting so I can make a purée. This is fun.
Judy the potato and mushroom looks tasty.

This morning when I grabbed a bunch of Beetroot I grabbed some that were from Hatters, an Australian company. I have just roasted them and wow! I didn't  realise they weren't plain ones. Now I have to resist eating them while they are warm.

I just realised I have participated in this challenge  :)

Monday night I made chicken, mushroom & bacon parcels from The Road to Loving My Thermomix website and they were very tasty.  I'm not a mushroom lover so the surprising thing is that I loved them mushrooms and all.

Thanks for the links girls.

I never knew there was anything other than a dark beetroot Cookie, do they taste different?

That was a great idea for the challenge Cookie. Thanks for the instructions too.  Did you take a photo of your cut loaf?
