:) :) What is for lunch, I need some new ideas :-*
Today i had bacon, risotto with peas and corn, leftovers from Sunday
-
I just had a toasted ham and cheese sandwich not very interesting but my DS 15 makes my lunch to bring to work so am happy
-
That's a nice turn around Yvette.
Actually you gave me an idea. My 19yr stepdaughter works at a local real estate and I bumped into her today when she was on her lunch break. She paid a fortune for a salad sandwich. Think I will drop some lunch off to her as a suprise on Thursday.
-
I normally have left overs. Today was pulled pork in a roll with coleslaw.
-
Thats good Michele it costs too much to buy lunch everyday, eats a big hole into your wages
-
We had mac and cheese today, except for dairy free miss3 who had ham sandwhiches.
-
I am boring. I have the same lunch every day. In fact I really like it. I have a big bowl of salad with all sorts of things in it. Then I have some protein with it, either cheese, tuna, cold meat or even a boiled egg. I also have 2 slices of bread. One I eat with the salad, the other I have with a coffee with jam on it.
It takes a few minutes to make but I really love my salad, summer and winter.
-
I had a Thai vegetable curry and rice. Was yummy :)
-
chocolate brownies :) at work
-
Chookies malt loaf, warmed up with butter and a cup of tea!
-
homemade meat pie. :)
-
Chicken, mushroom and pasta bake. Took some into my stepdaughters work for her.
She txted to say it was really yummy.
-
sandwiches and coffee
-
Cold ham on hot toast with salt and pepper. (Sounds weird but actually very nice! ...Well I like it anyway.) :D
-
Toast with corned beef, beetroot jam, lettuce and tomato - my favourite.
-
I had a stir-steam ;D (My version of stir-fry, I don't use oil :-)))
-
very healthy Amy....
-
I sure am Robyn :) I think I nearly drove some of the forumers crazy at the retreat :-))
-
Crazy is so good Amy :D :D
-
Fish and chips today :D
-
Homemade chicken nuggets today. :)
-
Not really lunch, but it was mine

AWESOME Hally!!! :D
-
Nice lunch Hally. Did you make the meringue in the TMX?
-
Hally glad to see only one piece is missing
-
Scrambled eggs and QJ's Baked Beans on toasted English muffins :)
-
Nothing healthy like Amy :) ;) :D ;D Shopping and the school had a sausage sizzle, just had to buy one with mustard :) :)
-
Today was toasted ham, cheese, tomato, avocado sandwiches.
-
Toasted sandwhiches here too!!!
-
Toasted sandwiches here too ;D SueJen, if I am anywhere and they have a sausage sizzle I can't resist buying one for myself either. I'm not a great fan of sausages except BBQ'd ones.
-
I was at Bunnings a 905am the other day JD, and they had a sausage sizzle out the front. Even though I was still full from breakfast, I walked away with sausage in hand ;)
-
:D :D :D :D good on you Karen - we've got to support these organisations that raise money this way. ;)
-
toasted ham, cheese, tomato, avacado sandwhich
-
We had Brunch today, so a brunch dish (bread, egg, milk, bacon, cheese, onion salt and pepper - cooked in the oven.) :)
-
BBQ Pork Buns

http://chinesefood.about.com/od/dimsumbuns/r/charsiubao.htm
A bit of an effort, but worth it. Also, the filling is nowhere near enough for the quantity of dough. Currently experimenting with baking the leftover dough in small rolls.
Update: burnt the small rolls. oops.
-

Salmon and vegetable soup :) I need a hot bowl to hold onto because I can't feel my hands. SO cold!!! :o

I usually bring left overs to work.
-
I bring left overs to work too.

Leftover ratatouille with crusty bread :)
-
Quite busy today and didn't take lunch from home - post-op sandwiches and a cup of tomato soup.
-
I had my very boring but absolutely favourite lunch..... hot buttered homemade toast topped with (homemade) peanut butter, sliced tomato and salt and pepper.... I could just about live on that! I know... butter AND peanut butter - shame on me!
-
I've never heard of that combination before Jude... ;D

Live dangerously Jude.
-
Bought bread from Brumby's today and just had to have a few slices with butter & Vegemite.
-
Live dangerously Jude.
Definitely!
Amy, I think I may have invented it. My kids say everyone they tell thinks it's strange. I say try it..... With or without the butter. Peanut butter and tomato is pretty amazing I think.
-
Peanut butter is great with banana too.
-
Peanut butter is the bomb! As the kids would say. Love it ! I'll try the banana, you try the tomato :)
-
Will do Jude. We aren't getting any younger. So may as well eat adventurous occasionally.
-
Since I don't eat peanut butter, I'll try banana with tomato ;D
-
PB is good for you Amy. Make it yourself in the TM so you control the oil content.
I like PB and chocolate. PB and banana is pretty good too. Not sure about PB and tomato.
-
Well you peanut butter snd tomato doubters get adventurous and try it. Thinly sliced tomato on top of PB with salt and pepper.......mmmmmm
-
My DH loves peanut butter and banana.
We have just found out that DS 15 is severly allergic to peanuts and soy beans
-
Oh dear Yvette :(
No more peanut butter in your house then?
-
I love peanut butter, I need to have breakie
-
He never used to eat it Amy we still can just have to be a bit careful
-
I love peanut butter, I need to have breakie
Peanut butter and avocado on toast Robyn? ;D
He never used to eat it Amy we still can just have to be a bit careful
Glad he won't be missing out then :)
-

Brought extra bread, and fruit, biscuits, healthy snacks in today for the kids.
-
Out for lunch with my 2 DIL's. Beach cafe plan may change due to weather :(

I'm going to make myself some soup again as soon as I get home out of the cold :-))
-
I made my soup: Curried Salmon, Zucchini and Mushroom. Absolutely delicious!! I wish it would hurry up and cool down so I can eat more ;D ;D
-
Was going to skip lunch as we are out with friends tonight (Thai), but made cheese and tomato scrolls and apple sultana scrolls and fell to the temptation and then thought what the heck and had a piece of frozen tan slice that I THOUGHT would be safe bring frozen but it tastes really good straight out of the freezer :) in my defense I did four hours child minding for my youngest GD so expended a bit of energy dancing to Hi 5 with her.....
-
I had left over sausage, mash and vegies.
-
Going out for lunch today for my grandpa's birthday :D

That will be lovely Amy - enjoy.

Yummy, I am eating licorice allsorts here

Not a very healthy lunch Obbie.
I had left over Beef and Guinness stew. It was just as good the second time as the first.
-
Another cheese and tomato scroll here..... And two glasses of sparkly ;D
-
I like the idea of sparkly..... :D
-
Wish I was having the sparkly with my lunch. Leftovers again for me.

-
I had indonesian food for lunch a lady made it and bought it into work for anyone that ordered it was chicken, beef, egg, yellow rice, chilli sauce, peanuts and cucumber

-
Watch the shopping thread for me soon..... ;D

Yes it was Amy there was rice on the bottom then some beef and chicken, bit of cucumber, nuts and half egg

I just had scrambled eggs with feta and spinach on a sandwich thin with some sweet chilli sauce. It was very yummy. :) :)

That all sounds really yummy Judy :)
I'm having vegetables. Mum and SD each had a smashed potato with baked beans and fried eggs and tomatoes.
-
Sounds great Hally. After DD having her 17th birthday gathering on Saturday night our spa (and pool) will need a week of filtering before any of us are game to get into it, with approx 25 17 year olds (mix of boys and girls) in the spa for 5 hours there wasn't much water left and what there was wasn't a good colour!!! I can't believe they were even in the pool, it was freezing in Melbourne on Saturday night and the pool is unheated.
-
I was at a conference today and we have just had the best food.
Breakfast - pastries, muffins and fruit.

Ditto! Except I had lettuce, cucumber, tomato, capsicum, mushroom, carrot and salmon ;D
-
Amy how did the test go?
-
The lecturer said I had very good answers, except for the last question because I forgot what cytotoxic waste was :-))
-
That's good Amy do you know what that waste is now?
-
Baked beans with chilli on toast.
Amy, what is cytotoxic waste ??? ??? ??? ??? ??? ???
-
I have a meeting with Mr Google to find out soon ;D
-
perhaps you and I are the only ones that don't know Amy :) :) :)
-
I think so Sue. We obviously have a major gap in our education :-)) :-)) ;D
-
Someone is sure to come on and tell us what it is Amy ;D ;D ;D
-
Cytotoxic waste is the by-product of cytotoxic drug therapy administered to patients (such as chemotherapy). Cytotoxic waste typically includes all drug administrative equipment (eg. needles, syringes, dripsets etc) as well as all gowns and body fluids/waste from patients undergoing such treatment.
-
Amy it is all the waste left from chemo, syringes, gown etc
-
Amy, I think I would prefer lunch instead..
-
Amy, I think I would prefer lunch instead..
LOL me too :-))
But thats handy to know, thank you ladies :-*
-
The lecturer said I had very good answers, except for the last question because I forgot what cytotoxic waste was :-))
Amy it's anything to do with chemotherapy drugs and anything that comes in contact with it. It is disposed of in a purple bin. You need to handle it with purple gloves. If that is something you deal with there should be a spill kit in your immediate area and you need to know how to use it and whom to inform if there is a spill.
-
Thanks DFM, that answers the question very well ;D
I promise I will write it in my own words :-)) :D
-
something healthy today, maybee a salad.
-
Toasted ham and cheese sandwich
-
Salad and tuna again.
-
Salad and salmon again :D
something healthy today, maybee a salad.
Anything but Caesar salad ;)
-
I have salad everyday for lunch and just vary the protein. It's been tuna for the last week or so. I love my salad fix and feel I have missed out if I don't have it.
-
That is so healthy Cookie - you put me to shame. I was totally disgraceful for lunch today - very busy day at work, so I raided the fund-raising chocolate box in the office - lunch was a mini-cherry ripe and a mini-crunchie bar :-[ :-[ :-[
-
It's a habit I have got into since I retired Karen. When I was teaching it was usually yoghurt with fruit. But then I pigged out when I got home. ::
-
Oh dear Karen... :(
Never mind, tomorrow is a new day :)
-

Would love you too, but you would have to eat it too :)
-
I would Hally, I promise :) And we could go to the gym together ;D
-
Amy, very healthy.

Always Robyn ;D
Homemade spicy chicken bites?

No I bought them Amy, we raced to the corner shop, and I got the kids ice creams too.
They are on holidays from today.
-
Vegemite Roll, and whats this??? some Cadbury Marvellous Creations with jelly popping candy beanies...and a glass of water :-))
-
Cadbury Marvellous Creations with jelly popping candy beanies

-
They look great Judy... :D
-
Leftover zucchini quiches for mum and SD ;)
Stir fry vegetables for me :D
-
Amy DD22 made the quiches yesterday to take to pre ball drinks. I havent rung her yet to ask her how it went cos she is probably hung over. She sent a pic though and they looked great.
-
I hope everything went well CP, and if it didn't, I hope she can't remember ;D
-
I cooked myself a stir fry with garam masala :) I'd never had garam masala before but thought I would try it since it was in the cupboard. Now I love it :D :D
-
(http://img.tapatalk.com/d/12/09/24/u3eta5u6.jpg)
Vietnamese roll, ham,salad and soda water
-
Looks really good CP :D
-
Ha ha I took a bite after taking the pic but then somehow deleted the pic, not much left of it for the second go ;D
-
I thought it looked a bit chewed lol :D
-
I had mung bean fritata for lunch.
-
fritata today for me.
-
We had broad bean, asparagus bruschetta with poached eggs & parmesan.
-
Yummo JD! :)
-
CP that looks yum :) :)
Judy yummy also ;D ;D
-
Stir fry vegetables :)
-
Same as yesterday but with a Mediterranean flavor eg sundried toms, olives, onion etc. nearly all gone....gone! Waiting 5 mins and then a Danish pastry, and then a soda water cos there's no calories in that :D (my ginger steamed fish foe tea tonight, so the pastry is my only real baddie today)
-
Curried egg sandwich, haven't had one in ages.
-
I like curried egg sandwiches. I don't usually make them but whenever I am at professional learning where sandwiches are served I always grab one.
-
fritatta again
-
All I hear on this thread is frittata, frittata - is it one from here?
-
I find pan frittata to be easier than TMX.... maybe thats just me :-))
-
I had Swedish meatballs and sauce in the freezer for GS today but GD wasn't interested so she just had a roll and dunked it in the gravy. DH and I had a panini bread roll filled with meatballs/gravy - Subway eat your heart out ;D
-
I always use Thermomixers (http://www.forumthermomix.com/index.php?topic=862.0) recipe for Frittata :)
-
I thought that may be the one, but wasn't sure if there was another. JD can those subway people smile or would it crack their face? They never spread things evenly or give me enough carrot and I find it frustrating to stand there and shout over the glass
-
CP, why not make the vietnamese rolls I posted, yum :)
H :)
-
I lurve v rolls hally, I will look them up...
-
I haven't been to Subway for a long time now CP - liked them when they first came here but something is just not right with their bread rolls these days. Maybe that's because we make our own bread and it puts others to shame. DH is just not interested in them full stop. Have to agree, the young staff don't seem to be enjoying their job.
-
Today I am having a chicken schnitzel sandwich with lettuce and mayo
-
pineapple cheescake ;D
-
That's a naughty lunch Robyn :o :o
-
It was yummy, CP's recipe on here ;D
-

-
We had chicken burgers here. :)
-
Left over Macaroni Beef from the forum :)
-
Naughty but delicious Robyn :D
Jealous here as fridge and pantry bare.
Defrosting leftover nasi goreng and spicy chicken. Love having small portions of leftovers in freezer for days like today
-
Today I am having a chicken schnitzel sandwich with lettuce and mayo
I love a schniti sandwich - often get that at work on couldn't give a hoot Friday.
-
Yes Mich it was leftover from dinner it was yummy :D :D
-
Some yummy lunches everyone :D
I had steamed vegetables, yoghurt and fruit :)
-
I had steamed vegetables, yoghurt and fruit :)
Amy have you ever tried steamed vegies with Vegemite? I love steaming up a big pile of vegies with a dollop of butter and a bigger dollop of Vegemite in the middle and swirl it through.......yummo! Couldn't get enough of it while I was pregnant!! :D
-
That's worth a try Amy - you could put the vitamin B12 theory to the test too with the mozzies.

I can't say I've ever tried that kt2 ;D
It sounds like one of those strange pregnancy cravings... :-))
But I don't eat butter, and I think vegemite vegetables might be a bit gross on their own!
Just out of curiosity... what sort of vegetables did you have? :)
That's worth a try Amy - you could put the vitamin B12 theory to the test too with the mozzies.
It might be DFM... but I think the salt content would probably scare my arteries to death! :o
-
Yes, it does sound like a strange pregnancy craving but it's something that I've loved all my life as my mum would serve it to me when I was young! I used potato, sweet potato, pumpkin, broccoli, carrots, zucchini and parsnips. I'd still try a bit of Vegemite, shouldn't be too different without the butter, the Vegemite kinda melts all through.....mmmmm! ;)
-
sounds yummy with vegemite
-
You know kt2.... I might actually try it :o
Life's too short to just eat plain steamed vegetables ;D
-
I hope you enjoy it Amy!
Eggs on Vegemite and toast are good too!!
I sound like the Vegemite kid! ;D :D
-
Hmm, I think my mum eats poached eggs with Vegemite toast sometimes! And also Vegemite and avocado :o
My brother used to eat Vegemite and peanut butter sandwiches :P
-
I can't quite imagine the taste of peanut butter and Vegemite! I can only think of peanut butter and chocolate! :-))
-
I'm with you on that one ;D My brother is quite strange :-))
-
DH ate the rest of the Swedish meat balls with some garlic rice and I had a cup of vegetable broth with a piece of toasted garlic infused sourdough and an ice-cream on a stick ;D
-
It might be DFM... but I think the salt content would probably scare my arteries to death! :o
Actually the salt hardening your arteries is a medical myth. If you have high blood pressure then you should avoid excessive salt however everyone else need not worry. Also in our climate and as an athlete salt is good.
Also a small amount of saturated fat dies not hurt either
-
I'm with you on that one DD, I think people are going overboard these days. When DH was taken to hospital with a funny turn (another one) sometime back, they did all sorts of tests to find out what caused it. Could find nothing but said his sodium levels were down. I cook with salt and we sprinkle salt on our meals around here (not excessively but we certainly have the salt pot on the table) so I couldn't understand why his levels were down. I was told he needs 1/2 tspn a day because he has MS but when I ran that by his neurologist, it was the first he'd heard of it.
-
I was presenting a workshop today so I got my curried egg sandwich. Along with some salad and a crustless quiche.
-
I'm glad you got your sandwich Den :D

I never eat salt. I don't like it so I don't put it in any of my food. And since my diet revolves around raw fruit and vegetables, I don't get salt from my every day diet like a lot of other people do. I don't think its affected me yet ???
-
My brother used to eat Vegemite and peanut butter sandwiches :P
Everything in moderation.
I like peanut butter and marmite on toast and marmite and tomato on toast too. :)
-
My brother used to eat Vegemite and peanut butter sandwiches :P
Everything in moderation.
Tell that to my brother... he ate sandwiches like they were going out of style :-))
I've never had marmite. Is it better than Vegemite?

Thanks Judy :-* DH usually puts half a pound of butter in his baked potato :-)) :-))

I sometimes use Tenina's flavoured butters - a knob of the cheddar butter is great on a potato or as I did today, mixed some with the green vegies. I always have a pack in the freezer.

It finally happened, yay! 2 lovely girls - how could it not be a nice lunch/get together.

And with the added bonus of now having a new "pet" to care for - a jar of Chookies sourdough starter, come to me via Judy, then via Katie. How exciting to have some starter with such an auspicious pedigree ;D ;D
-
We did have a lovely lunch and catch up. It was nice to finally meet Karen.
A pity we had to come back to work, we could have chatted for ages.
Karen was kind enough to pass onto me some rye starter that originated in WA.
The girls at my work think we are part of some secret sourdough starter swapping society ;D
-
Ever read the book "Friendship Bread" ?
-
Left over vegetable frittata.

Ever read the book "Friendship Bread" ?

I don't know how much you've eaten out while in Adelaide Cookie but have you noticed that you get good quality food and at great prices there? Not like expensive Perth.
-
Making me hungry again, off to have fudge.
-
Chicken, asparagus and pasta salad.
-
That sounds great DFM, did you make it yourself? :D
-
DH doesn't like eating out at all Tasty, but I have beeleasantly surprised with quite a few food prices. Picked up lovely bananas today for $1.99 and tomatoes for $4.98.
I have noticed that a cup of coffee over here is about $1 or $1.50 a cup cheaper than in Perth. Tastes just as nice too.
-
That sounds great DFM, did you make it yourself? :D
I did DFD. The dressing was light mayo (out of a jar) light sour cream, whole grain mustard and a squeeze of lemon juice.
-
I don't know how much you've eaten out while in Adelaide Cookie but have you noticed that you get good quality food and at great prices there? Not like expensive Perth.
Everywhere seems cheaper than Perth for going out. I visit Perth a couple of times a year and am always horrified by how much eating and drinking out costs. Am hoping to move back in the next little while and the cost of the fun things is definitely a consideration.
At least Perth now has extended trading hours! Now I just need to hope for daylight saving ;D

That sounds great DFM, did you make it yourself? :D
I did DFD. The dressing was light mayo (out of a jar) light sour cream, whole grain mustard and a squeeze of lemon juice.
Yummm..... ;D

We had the most amazing lunch...we went out as a family to a little town, found a beautiful spot which had a play area for the kids and a barbeque, and we had lunch! What we ate was very basic but yum, but the atmosphere and togetherness was GREAT!! :D :D :D :D
We had cheese & bacon pull-apart bread (heated on BBQ), chicken tenderloins, BBqed kabana, salad and cheese. :)
-
Lunch for me was a delicious crispy skinned twice cooked pork belly, royal blue potato mash, a timbale of braised cabbage with fennel and an apple purée..
Brought to the table with a chilled bottle of Catalina Sounds Sauvignon Blanc from Marlborogh NZ.
Entree was salt and pepper calamari with aioli and a salad with leaves, orange segments, diced tomato, cucumber with a Dijon vinaigrette .
Had a lovely afternoon with DH who is now snoring away while am sitting on my balcony with the dogs. :D
-
MF and Astarra, it sounds like you both had wonderful lunches today :D :D :D
-
Both different but equally good.
It's not the food that matters but who you share it with.
As Astarra says it's the atmosphere and who you share it with :D
-
I agee completley MF :D
-
:D :D :D
-
Wow Astarra and MF what a great lunch you both had. Sounds like the perfect Sunday. MF your description made me feel like I was sitting next to you!!
-
Went to Bistro Guillame at Burswood today for lunch. Had lovely good quality food but quite $$. Luckily we had a $200 voucher which covered all expenses. The lemon tart in particular was so silky and smooth - never seen it like that but it was delicious!!
-
Ooh Tasty glad you enjoyed it. Do you think it's worth the $?

(http://img.tapatalk.com/d/12/10/29/utu2a2ed.jpg)
-
That tart and salad look delicious JD as does the risotto Hally.
Just fresh bread and marmite for lunch here.

Thanks Michele, it was rather nice and I agree with you, Hally's looks great too.
-
Toasted ham and cheese sandwich and some fresh pineapple
Fresh pineapple is really yummy in the sandwich with the ham and cheese ;D ;D
Yummy looking lunches Judy and Hally :D
Mum and I just got back from driving nana to Kojonup, so we had a late lunch of.... cereal :-))
-
Kojonup is only an hour away from me Amy. Did you drive Goliath?
-
No, I didn't drive :'( Learners are only allowed to do up to 100kph, so it would have taken too long for me to drive :-))
An hour which way? :)
-
An hour further north and a little east.
Do you have your log book yet or are you still working toward that?
-
I will keep that in mind for future travels! ;) ;D
I haven't got my log book yet, but it shouldn't take me long to get there now that I have an automatic car :-))
-
Varoma steamed pickled pork and vegies.
-
Jd - that looks yum! :)
We had toasted ham and cheese sandwiches. Miss6 has just got home from school and said she was starving, so I looked in her lunchbox (expecting it to be full) - no, nothing there, so asked her if she ate it all, she said she had it on the table and started then went to get her drink, when she came back her lunch had disappeared... ??? I asked how that happened and she informed me it is not the first time she has had her lunch swiped. :o I really don't know what to do now... maybe not give her yummy TM lunches any more...? :o
-
Oh no, thats terrible astarra! Poor miss6 :'(
Can you speak to the school about it?
-
I would report it to the school asap
-
Yeah, I will definately be saying something when I drop her off in the morning, it just shocked me :o And to think it has happened before and she has just let it be... (typical of her, she hates dobbing on people or getting anyone into trouble, just feels sorry for them. ) Don't think I want to know if this is the 2nd time or more ... :-\ She has told me the other kids in her class alway tell her her lunch looks yum etc. :)
-
Oh the poor thing, I hope she hasn't gone hungry too many other days :(
Even though they are only 6, her classmates should know that stealing is wrong >:(
-
Oh thats terrible. At 6 there should be teachers around. Poor love needs her lunch at lunch time.
You are going to ave to let te teacher know.
Cp often gets asked to trade, he laughs.
H :)
-
That is just terrible Astarra. I can't believe that could happen. Shame on the person who did it and shame on her teacher for not noticing her not eating lunch.
-
Yeah...the more I think about it the crosser I get...perhaps I'd better stop thinking about it!!! ;)
I just don't think it is very fair, I cooked that food for HER, not some little food thief. >:(
There are 50 kids and 2 teachers so I can't expect the teachers to notice everything, but surely...? I asked her if she told the teacher and got "no, of course not, then some poor hungry little kid would get in trouble. " :-)) Some poor hungry little kid...my @#$% .... I'm sure they would have had their own lunch...well you would hope so, anyway. :-\
-
My feelings exactly. Hopefully you can get to the bottom of it and sort it out. Good luck.
-
Oh that is so sad Astarra >:( >:(
-
Miss 6 is so sweet Astarra... but it was still her lunch, and she needs to eat just like every other kid. Do you think she might know who it was but isn't saying because she doesn't want to get them in trouble?
-
I just asked her if she knew who it was, she said "no ... well it might have been ... or ... or ... or ..., but I don't know." I said "why do you think it might have been one of them?" She said "cuz they are the ones who alway want my lunch." I said "oh, OK so you are sure you don't know?" Answer.... :o .... "well I think it was probly ... cuz he had a container with my name on it." :o :o :o :o "Ummmm well that kinda explains who it was then, don't you think?" her - "well no, cuz he might have just wroten my name on a container the same as mine." :-)) :-)) :-)) Then she clammed up... so as not to get anyone in trouble. :-)) :P
-
Talk about evidence :o
-
Mean little theif >:(
I would have words with the school and that boy's parents!
-
And guess what else...now I don't have the containers. >:(
-
So sorry to, read this Astarra,
Hope you get it sorted. School should be shocked, and do something about it.
Hope DD6 keeps hold of lunch from now on.
Hope you can find some more containers. What a pain.
School is not easy for some.
-
Astarra that's awful and to take the container as well, hopefully the mum of the child will notice that it isn't their container and say something to you xx
-
And guess what else...now I don't have the containers. >:(
If you talk to the boy's parents maybe they can find them and give them back to you? They did have Miss6's name on them... but then you would think they would have approached you if they had found your daughter's containers in their son's school bag?
This must be so frustrating for you astarra >:(
-
Unfortunately some parents haven't got a clue Amy, my DS lost his wet weather school jacket which cost a small fortune and it's never been returned even with his name on it, pretty sure you would notice a new container or piece of clothing with a different child's name on it though
-
That must have been upsetting for both you and DS suzannne :(
I suppose these are the little frustrations of school, aren't they?
-
Yeah the joys of being a parent I guess but I always think what sort of adults are these kids going to turn into if their parents aren't honest enough to return something that obviously isn't theirs anyway I'll get of my soapbox now sorry :-[
-
Agree 100% Suzanne, I know I'd sort it out straight away if she brought home something that wasn't hers.
Will be *interesting* in a few minutes when DH gets home and hears about it..... :-))
-
I had my daughters school jumper Taken last year. Had to buy another one for $40.
I Found it 15 months later near another kids bag, with her name on it. I took it home straight away.
:)
-
Good on you Robyn ;)
Agree 100% Suzanne, I know I'd sort it out straight away if she brought home something that wasn't hers.
Will be *interesting* in a few minutes when DH gets home and hears about it..... :-))
Too bad there aren't more honest parents like you ladies :-\
Hopefully DH will help you sort it out Astarra :)
-
You know I think some parents dont even go through the school bag daily.
If I found anything with another childs name on.... There would be questions....... Los of them....
-
How can you not go through a school bag lazy I guess, my kids unpack their bags as soon as they get inside then they can eat ;D
A $70 jacket lost forever and I still have a look if I see one sitting on the benches :-[
-
Halloween Souffle`s from Plenty.
He gave them the tittle as souffle`s are for some scary to make and they have pumpkin in them. Very nice.

-
You've had a couple of interesting meals today astarra ;D
I know... :-))
-
I like chicken and avo salads/sandwiches too. Mmmm
Today I'm having Penang Checken with brown rice and steamed green veges from 12WBT. Same for dinner.
-
Do you have the same thing for lunch and dinner often Tasty? Doesn't it get boring? ???
-
If not for lunch and dinner then dinner and usually lunch the next day. It doesn't get boring as I don't particularly like cooking so anything that has leftovers is great!! I hate having to cook let along two different meals each day and then sometimes something different for the little one.
-
Having said that....I do get bored of certain recipes so always seek out new ones every couple of months or so!
-
DH, met me at work for lunch today and we went halves in a chicken ceaser burger and chips.
The burger was nice but the company was excellent. :)
-
Just about to make ham rolls with my rolls from freezer for picnic.
Plus banana bread and yogurt from Aldi.

We had "crack-an-egg pies" made by miss6 - who got a dairy-good food DVD from the MIL which had the recipe on it.
--- basically bread buttered then pushed into a muffin pan then an egg cracked into it, cut up ham and grated cheese on top, bake 200deg for 15min.
-
Sounds yummy Astarra. Obbie could do with that recipe. I think she has 12 dozen eggs!!!
-
That does sound good... even I would probably eat those Astarra! Without the cheese though ;)
Mum and SD had leftover lamb shank casserole for lunch.... after we found it :-)) :-))

They sound great astarra. Must get the little ones to help me make them as I know they would love them
Don't you like cheese Amy?
-
How did you manage to lose the leftover casserole Amy ???
-
Well... I made the dinner last night and then went to work. When I got back, mum had washed the dishes and SD had dried them. I noticed that there wasn't any leftover casserole in the fridge, which I thought was strange because it had seemed like a lot. Anyway, I asked mum at lunch time today whether she wanted me to cook some poached eggs and potato wedges, but she said they would just have the leftover casserole. I said there wasn't any, and she kept saying there was until I showed her inside the fridge. Then she looked around and saw the casserole dish that she had put the leftovers in, up in its place in the cupboard. Mum had left the dish on the bench and SD had just put it away with the other dishes :o :-))
But SD still wanted it for lunch, so thats what he got :-X
I had to laugh though :D :D :D
And in regards to cheese... its not my favourite food, MF. There are other things I would rather eat that would be less calories ;D ;D ;D
-
Giggling like little girl Amy ;D I bet you're glad it's not summer! Really don't think the casserole would have been edible. ???
-
Hehehe, so was I in the end MT ;D
Yes, so glad it was a cold, wet day! Imagine the smell if it had been a hot day....urk, definitely wouldn't have been edible! :-X
Mum and SD haven't keeled over yet, so I don't think the casserole had gone off or anything :-))
I was happy eating my wholemeal crumpet ;)
-
Lol Amy!
-
Yes I have to use up eggs.
Salad today
-
Egg salad Robyn? Or potato salad with eggs? Thats yummy ;)
-
Roast beef, bbq sauce, salad, boiled eggs.
Home made bread
Chocolate brownie... :)
-
Sourdough ( ;D) topped with capsicum relish, ham, havarti cheese and home grown lettuce.
I might make a coffee frappe to eat with my lemon yoghurt cupcake, or a cappuccino. Can't decide >:(
I wasn't expecting to be home for lunch today, but I have 2 kids home from school. DD was sick yesterday and had a mild temp this morning BUT I think DS is only pretending to be sick. :o
-
I Have DS home today, just lying around watching TV.
-
If I was having that sort of gourmet lunch, I would fake it and stay home too ES.
Late lunch after netball so had leftover risotto and small bowl of ice cream cos I feel I burnt the calories off earlier!

After a big meat eating weekend, today was a slice of rice & spinach pie (http://www.forumthermomix.com/index.php?topic=1033.0) from the freezer, some pan fried potatoes sprinkled with Tenina's citrus olive salt from FFS and salad made from all the bits and pieces in the fridge.

Sounds lovely Karen. I'm sure the boys will enjoy the outing and what a great place for lunch.
Enjoy :D
-
LOL :D I was having a liquid lunch Amy. Not.
I didn't think it was your style ;D
-
That'll be lovely for the family Karen and I'm sure the boys will want to try lots of different food - I still have the image in my head of them enjoying the food we had at your place recently. Gosh it has been so many years since I went into DJ's food hall that I had forgotten it existed :-)) If and when I get to town again, I must put that on my bucket list ;D

Frustrating isn't it Hally? :( But very true :)
I am making pizza scrolls for mum and SD :D

Just a little balsamic vinegar. Sometimes I use a balsamic glaze.

Toasted ham and cheese sandwiches

What sort? :)
-
ham, cheese, tomato, onion. was not impressed.
-
Oh dear Robyn, thats disappointing :(
That does sound good Den :D Do you have a dressing for it?
Just a little balsamic vinegar. Sometimes I use a balsamic glaze.
I didn't realise they were different ;D
-
A balsamic glaze is balsamic vinegar with sugar and sometimes other flavouring added and it is reduced over a low heat. It can be very nice with a little bit of good quality EVOO and some nice ciabatta or french stick to dip into it.
-
Ahh... I don't think my tastes are that sophisticated LOL ;D

Thats how we love it or over salad :P

I love balsamic, good olive oil and fresh bread for dipping. particuarly a good chewy sour dough.

I made a fried rice & prawn dish with the rice pilaf left over from yesterday with a bit of bacon added.

Embarrassed to say we had KFC. Boys loved it I did not enjoy it. Yuck.
-
Lunch alone so cooked myself up this lovely spicy piece of steak...
-
we are having steak for dinner.
I had potato chips just now, no lunch. ( snack pack)

Looks yummy JD.
-
It certainly does :D Are they barbecued potatoes Judy?
-
No Amy, I microwaved some whole potatoes until 3/4 cooked then sliced them and browned them in a pan sprayed with olive oil - the healthy way ;)
-
Hi JD, do you have a cooked meal for lunch each day??
and then a cooked meal for tea??
-
No Amy, I microwaved some whole potatoes until 3/4 cooked then sliced them and browned them in a pan sprayed with olive oil - the healthy way ;)
Sounds pretty good to me Judy ;D
-
We had homemade chicken nuggets today. :)
Miss3 also had about 7 servings of tomato sauce with hers!!!!! :-))
-
That reminds me of what my mum used to say to me astarra.... "are you going to have any nuggets with that sauce?" ;D
-
Most of the time our lunch is the main meal 50plus - it can be anywhere from between 12.30 - 3pm depending on what we are doing and for tea we grab anything. When you are retired I find it easier this way and it fits in better with DH going to bed so early, sometimes as early as 5.30 these days. Even when we have visitors, it's always an invite for lunch and I can't remember the last time we went out for an evening meal.
-
That's sensible JD and better for you to have your main meal during the day, you can work it off. LOL
I have leftovers for lunch but we eat our main meal about 4-4.30 pm as we are up at 4 in the morning, Grumpy is hungry by then. because he WON"T have any lunch, he will eat fruit at work but not much else, not so bad except he then gets the munchies about 6.30 - 7pm and we are in bed by 9pm at the latest.
-

I had a small amount of pork loin roast left (180g) so made this recipe for curried minced pork (http://www.forumthermomix.com/index.php?topic=5598.0) for lunch - it's a bit like a risotto but uses long grain rice.

No. 2 page 34 Amy.
-
Thanks Judy, the chemist over the road from my SD's shop sells her books. I might have to go across and buy it :D
-
Would you like me to put my conversion of this one on the forum Amy?
-
Would you mind Judy? That would be great :)
-
No problems, I can do.

I'm not sure what I'm having for lunch yet, but its only 9:30 here anyway. Plenty of time to decide ;)
-
I didn't eat it tho. :P
I had fresh juicy peaches x 2 and a fresh juicy necterine. :D

Better than a chocoholic ;D
-
Or an alcoholic!! :o
Chocolate... :P
-
I love berries but not stone fruit.
-
I made Swedish meatballs for GS's lunch and for DH's tea.
-
Does that mean that Geoff is home?
I"m having roast lamb and tomato sauce on a home made sour dough roll :)
-
He will be on his way any minute ES - they offered to keep him a few more days (respite for me perhaps?) but the longer he stays in hospital the further downhill he will go mentally and physically. The problem is fixed so he is best sent back home so that I can work on those 2 problems.
-
Im glad to hear that - I'm sure he will improve under your loving care, much better than being stuck in hospital
-
Great news Judy, glad Geoff is coming home.

Snap! :D
Well I acually had a toasted bread roll, but its close enough ;D

Still edible though! :D :D
-
Whoops!! :D
I've only just had mine at 3:15pm. :-[ Whan MIL rang and woke me up to tell me she had miss6 from school.
-
It was nice and crunchy for sure! :D
Oh dear, are you okay astarra? Are you still feeling like **** ?
-
***** is an understatement today Amy! ;D :-\
-
Oh **** :(
Have you got someone to look after you? :)
-
I looking after me - easy to do when I in bed
Girls all at MILs. :)
-
Thats no fun :( Is DH at work? At least you don't have to worry about the girls :)
-
Yep DH at work, hope he is not too tired as I apparently tossed and turned all night and kept him awake til he finally told me to take some panadol and go to sleep. :-)) Poor man. :-*
-
Oh yes, he certainly has it tough :-)) ;D
-
LOL. ;D
-
Going back to sleep now - night!
-
Good night astarra :-*
-
thats no good, hope you feel better soon.

Thanx H :-*
just woken at 4pm, thinking about what is for lunch! But have not much energy to get out of bed. :(
-
If I were there I would make you something astarra :)
-
How nice Amy, thanx! :D :-*
Hoping Dh will walk in the door any sec and get me a small something to tide me over til MILs dinner gets here... :D
-
Are you going to have your tea in bed astarra? I do hope you are feeling a little better by now :-*
-
Yes I had my tea in bed Judy. :P
DH has just given me orders to go to the doc tomorrow if I am not better. :-))
MIL keeping the girls for the next 24hrs. :( :)
-
Oh no Astarra. It's so hard being sick with little people around! I hope you are feeling better soon
-
You have a wonderful MIL astarra and yes I think you should do as your husband wants.
-
OK Judy and DH get their way - I am going to see my doc at 11:15am. :P
-
I hope the doc is of some help astarra ;)
-
I really don't know what he can do for the flu but I just do what I'm told... :D
-
He'll probably give you some drugs. Doctors seem to like handing out pills.... Ooops, I didn't say that did I? :-)) ;D
-
Mine doesn't, he only gives them out when he is absolutely positive there is nothing else he can do...mostly a good thing, sometimes not!! ;)
-
He sounds like he might be close to being a sensible doctor astarra... ;D
-
He is actually - I can't speak highly enough of him...a really good doc, also very sensitive and caring. And his kids are the same age as ours so he understands kids too. :D
-
Its a great feeling to find a good doctor, especially one the whole family can go to :D
-
Yep, once you find them you certainly keep 'em!! :D
-
And hope they don't decide to move somewhere else! ;D
-
Yep, as it is he only does 3 days/week here, but it is OK as the other 2 he does in Westbury where my DH works so it means he can go from work to him too!! :D
-
Hope you are feeling better Astarra.
-
Yep, as it is he only does 3 days/week here, but it is OK as the other 2 he does in Westbury where my DH works so it means he can go from work to him too!! :D
LOL thats convenient!! :D Is Westbury a different town?
-
Yep, about 15min away.
Just got home - Dr wonders if I have Whooping cough... :P So swabs and tests etc. Yuk. :)
-
Oh dear astarra, that sounds horrible... I hope its not whooping cough :(
-
I hope not too, but can't do much about it! :-\
No wonder I feel so rotten! :P
-
Yes, no wonder.... :(
Is that a really contagious disease?
-
whopping cough is more common than you think.
Hope you are better Astarra
-
Hope it is not WC Astarra :P
-
Good thing you went to the doctor astarra, hope you get a quick diagnosis.
For lunch today, leftover chicken sausages, found some gravy in the freezer so steamed vegies and made the potato bites we've been talking about lately.

Looks good Judy.
Hope you are feeling better Astarra.

Thanks Amy.
Oohh, bubbles for lunch. :D
-
Just, did you use one of your new icing tubes for the potatoes? They look great.
-
I was wondering how JD got her potatoes looking so pretty. Never thought of piping them.
-
Yes I piped them girls but it's a messy job and you have to wait until the mashed potato cools down a bit or it just splits the plastic bag. I found my nylon one which worked better.
-
I made sausage rolls for lunch too
-
Judy, do you think they would be nice sprinkled with some parmesan cheese? My mum loves the stuff ;D
-
Yes you could certainly do that Amy.
-
DH brought us subway for lunch. :-))
-
Thanks Judy :)
Astarra, you have a well trained DH ;D

A lot of dishes do PT. I think its because the flavours develop overnight ;)
I was hoping it would - it wasn't great last night! I love eating casseroles and curries the next day... nom nom. I remember my dad used to always make spag bol the day before so the flavours could develop.

-
I was eating a yummy pizza (a special treat for me because we're GF/DF at our house!) for a late lunch and broke a molar...can't get in to see my dentist until midday on Monday - it's now 3.55pm on Friday! The receptionist gave me an emergency number in case it gets worse over the weekend...it's not wonderful now. And I couldn't eat the rest of my pizza 'cos it's so uncomfortable...excuse me while I have a little pity party! :(
-
I can join you in that party JenJan. I had a filling fall out last week will I was eating an apple, and I can't get it fixed until 17th January :(
So I can sympathize completely!
-
Ouch, ring the emergency number now, :'(
-
Oh no, Amy! So sorry you have to wait until mid January. I don't think I could last that long with this though...I think the whole tooth has split and it's moving around. (And I know it's going to hurt the budget too! Ow!)
Thanks Obbie - I'll hope it will be ok but I'll see how it feels in the morning.
-
Oh gosh, that sounds awful JenJan :-X It might just be soft foods for you over the weekend? :P
-
Hope the tooth holds up till Monday JenJan :)
-
I've gone into sympathy mode for you girls with teeth problems, getting twinges myself and willing it to go away ;D
-
You poor thing jenjan. I hope you get thru the weekend ok. Sounds like lots of soup and smoothies for a few days.
-
I've gone into sympathy mode for you girls with teeth problems, getting twinges myself and willing it to go away ;D

Cooked spaghetti on stovetop, tossed 3 cloves of garlic into the Thermie, chopped, then oil, saute at varoma, then just tossed sliced mushrooms (didn't measure, just what I had in the fridge, a blob of vege stock paste, then cooked for a bit at 100 C and reverse then popped shopped sundried tomatoes at the end and voila! Poured the whole thing over a heap of baby spinach, mixed it with cooked spaghetti then sprinkled parmesan! Too easy and was a hit with DH.
As I was washing up I was wishing I had bought my Thermie years ago...
-
Yum, I'm on my way over :)

Converted a recipe from the current edition of Australian healthy Food Guide - Garlic Chilli Spaghetti but it was a bit bland and dry looking (as some of these ultra healthy recipes are) so I added 3/4 cup of the sauce I had over from Swedish meat balls yesterday and some much needed salt! It then tasted quite nice ;)
-
I saw that recipe in the magazine yesteday Judy :) Their photos always make the dishes look perfect :-))

DJ, did you stir Bron's garlic rice every 3 minutes as per the recipe? It always cooks in the correct time for me but not if I forget to stir it. I now set a timer for each 3 minute stir ;)

Sounds like you had a lovely time Judy. How's DH?

Mmm, so so Michele.

Oohh really? Are you still getting a care package?
You do a wonderful job of caring for Geoff. I am in awe of you and all carers - worth your weight in gold.
-
Ditto Mich hope all is ok Judy I am a bit behind on some of the posts

I sent you a pm Michele.
Yes still get a small care package but have asked for more next year. Will be ringing them in the second week of January to see if it has gone before the board yet.

Hope all is well Judy.
Can you get respite care at all. :)

Hope you get more than you asked for Judy.. :-*
Lunch today = leftovers. :P

Left over pizza from last night. We had all my kids and their partners here for tea. I used my wonderful Pizza Machine and put out bowls of pineapple, ham, salami, capsicum, cooked chicken, caramelised onion, fetta, basil, roasted pumpkin and a variety of sauce bases. Used bought bases - Bazaar. They were divine!

A cheat from the Aldi freezer, lamb shanks in redwine sauce, with leftover mash from yesterday.
I wanted something easy and sustaining to keep us going on the paperwork. I heard some ladies in the shop saying they were good. Will see. Here's hoping!
-
Poached eggs :)
-
Bad choice today - Scrapped the lamb shanks, they appeared to belong to a very old sheep that may have walked from the other side of the world....
Seriously couldn't cut or chew or anything. Followed directions completely.
Binned.
I hardly ever buy a ready meal.... Won't again! LOL!

I would take it back or the packaging back DJ and get your money back.I'm sure the supermarket would be interested that their suppliers aren't up to scratch.
-
I would let them know Jess.
-
Good idea. Will try to get package out of bin, will look in the morning.
Not sure when back there next?
-
DJ, yes take them back.
I was told by a gourmet butcher that supermarkets buy old animals where as a good butcher will buy young.
:)
-
Not to mention the time that item has been on the shelf....almost like Russian roulette! I'd certainly take it back DJ... You have nothing to lose....
-
Freeze them DJ, they can then see you have cooked and tried them. I've seen them here at Foodland but have never bought them. The lady who demonstrates different foods around there told me she buys them when they have been reduced and that they are really nice.
-
Homemade sausage rolls here today :D
-
We had Cookies delicious Barbecued Honey Chicken (http://www.forumthermomix.com/index.php?topic=12221.msg247263#new) here.

That looks great JD! Just what I feel like! ;D ;D
-
Thanks Katie, I know how you feel - as soon as I read Cookie's recipe last night I knew that was going to be my next meal. Best meal I've had since my Christmas lunch and the ribs at DD's on Sunday.

-
Looks very healthy Thermilove!
We had pizza again yesterday. I just love the Pizza Maker, until it cut me deeply when I put it away in the cupboard. Beware! There is a very sharp piece of metal near the handle of the stone. Got a very deep cut on the inside of my little finger to prove it...
-
Had cheese, tomato and ham toasties today. :D
-
MJ, ouch! I would be covering it with something if I were you :-\

Pretty sure he won't, he suffers really badly with domestic blindness, if its not under his nose he won't see it lol.
-
LOL Jen :D
I might make my Zucchini Quiches for lunch today. Need to use up these massive yellow zucchinis that my nana gave me! :o

Hope you enjoyed your day off Judy.

yes maltesers
-
I had a chicken salad sandwich and about to have a bowl of cherries :D
-
Cornbeef, tomato and chutney pan fried sandwich and some grapes.
-
Nice lunches MF and Mich ;D
How do you pan fry a sandwich Mich? Doesn't it fall apart? :-\
-
No it doesn't fall apart. Make the sandwich as usual and butter the top side - place buttered side down in the pan and then spread the the slice of bread facing you with butter - give it a few minutes to brown then turn it over. Take it out of the pan and cut in half.
-
Aha.... mystery solved ;D
-
(http://img.tapatalk.com/d/13/01/09/uje3yqe7.jpg)

We had spicy chicken drummettes then fruit :)

I can't believe you have never had a toasted/grilled cheese sanger Amy. You are sadly deprived of one of life's treats.
Gert
-
Lunch at sisters house. Chorizo croquettes, pesto potato salad and sticky date cheesecake with caramel sauce. Lovely to be spoilt and not the one doing the cooking. Will need to be rolled home though ;D
-

I know Gert, its terrible isn't it ;D I'm sure there are many other things I have been deprived of as well :-))
-
H, you should have come to my house as we have plenty of Christmas ham. I had a friend over for lunch with her two kids. We had ham and salad with panfried haloumi, a selection of cheeses, biscuits and fresh bread. Dessert was fresh fruit and a selection of biscuits ( and iced coffee for the mumz's)
-
We had Chicken Kiev sausages cooked in the weber with bought mango curry dressing (a Christmas hamper gift)and vegies for lunch.
-

-
Grilled cheese on toast is a must have Amy. I also make zebra toast for DS. Vegemite and cheese grilled on toast.

-
Even my little GC's all love grilled cheese on toast ;D
Go on Amy it's never too late ;D
It's yum

Oh I love Maggie Beer's pate! Yummo!
Kimmy, it sounds like you've had a tough day xx
-
Tough day yesterday but all good today.
Clean out the fridge day. Leftover rolls, salad, dip, etc for lunch.
-
GOing to a pub for lunch with a friend so I guess it will be something with chips for me!!!!!
-
DD is coming to pick up the children today and it is also her birthday so she has requested tuna mornay with salad and fresh bread rolls. Pavlova for dessert.
-
Put the Healthy 'roast' chicken from Devil of a Cookbook on this morning then rang Mum and invited her around to share it with us. Decided to use up some Thai curry sauce I had in the freezer so only served the chicken with steamed vegies instead of roasted ones. Mum thought the meal was delicious, she is easily pleased though. She couldn't get over how moist and tender the chicken was being steamed.
-
That looks great Judy, and lovely that your mum cam over to share it with you :D
Mab19, I hope your DD enjoys her birthday lunch :)
Prawn and salad wraps here today ;D
-
That looks great Judy - I have now put it on my menu for sometime next week!!! :D
We had salad, hard boiled eggs, fresh buns and Coctail franks here. (Oh and tomato sauce... :-)) )
-
(Oh and tomato sauce... :-)) )
Of course ;D ;D
-
Love little boys....skinless of course ;) ;D
-
I think I missed something Kimmy.... your post gives the impression that you love skinless little boys? ???
-
Cocktail frankfurts Amy :-\ They are called little boys LOL ;D
-
Ha ha thought I might catch you out Amy. Thanks Michelle for explanation. Just another oldie way if saying things.
-
Aha ;D
You meanie Kimmy, you knew I wouldn't know what you meant ;D
I can't remember ever having cocktail frankfurts :-))
-
Cocktail frankfurts Amy :-\ They are called little boys LOL ;D
blimey!! I'm glad that was cleared up . . .!! Have never heard them called that before . . . ;D
-
Hooray! So I wasn't the only one GF ;D
-
Recently had a conversation about cocktail franks vs little boys at work. It was mainly the Western Australians that understood the term little boys. Naturally this led on to discussion about polony vs devon, deli vs corner shop and bathers vs swimmers.
-
Polony, deli and bathers ;D They're the terms I know so I guess they're the WA ones!! ;D
-
In SA, I know the term 'little boys', polony/devon is known as fritz here, deli v corner shop, well we seem to be losing all our corner shops but both words could be used here, and it's bathers for me.
-
. . . . and we all speak the Queen's English . . . ;D ;D ;D
-
I dared to say swimmers, rather than bathers around my Mum a couple of years ago. Mum (who doesn't even live in WA anymore) told me in no uncertain terms that I am Western Australian and will therefore call them bathers. That was the end of that. And now, of course, I make sure I always call them swimmers ;D
-
LOL consumerate ;D
I couldn't call them anything but bathers. That's what I've always called them ;)
-
I call them swimmers, but in england I would have said swimming costume (I think)
The Como for lunch today :)
-
We called them swimming costumes in Scotland too Hally.
Now I call them bathers as that's what all the kids say.
Polony here and deli but in Scotland it was corner shop. :)
-
Cossies or Togs.
We had a brunch of left overs - cottage cheese pattie and egg on bubble and squeak.
-
Yummo Mich, a good breaky there :D You haven't had diet coke in a while, are you giving it up? :)
Polony here and deli but in Scotland it was corner shop. :)
So are corner shops always on corners? ;D
-
we are going out for lunch, burgers i hope
-
Yep MF swimming costumes, we dont abbreviate like aussies, lol
Checked the menu, cp wants woodfired meatlovers pizza, i want wildmushroom risotto with bue cheese & dh wants some type of fish or seafood, easy, was tempted with wagyu burgers but if not up to The Boatshed Standard in Cottesloe it would be a let down.
:)
-
Sounds great Hally :D :D
-
We called polony/ devon/ fritz. Belgium growing up in Tas. Think in Qld it's called luncheon.
Something I haven't eaten in years.

I had leftover couscous salad with pre bought Portuguese smoked chicken. Very tasty :)
-

Yummo Mich, a good breaky there :D You haven't had diet coke in a while, are you giving it up? :)
Polony here and deli but in Scotland it was corner shop. :)
So are corner shops always on corners? ;D
No Amy they can be anywhere :)
Just remembered in Scotland polony is luncheon meat.
-
So a corner shop could actually be a middle shop? Or a next-to-the-shop-on-the-corner shop? ;D ;D
-
That's right Amy it can be an anywhere shop.. ;D no idea why it's called the corner shop.
-
Maybe they sell corners ;D
-
LOL ;D
Haven't seen anyone coming out with one of them Amy
-
I had High Tea for breakfast and lunch today :)
-
Ooh love high tea. Did you frock up?
-
No thank goodness because no one else did! I didn't know what to wear so I kind of went in-between! I was a little bit disappointed with the food and the portions....they served it on the tiered trays which looked nice but only provided 2 of each 'thing' for three people to share. As they were people I hadn't met before, it was a bit awkward. -and I like food so I didn't particularly want to share :o
-
That is not good nor fair.
My first was the Windsor in Melbourne and it was awesome. Sadly others since have been good but a little disappointing compared with the Windsor. I am thinking if getting a few girls around and host my own one day. Maybe for my birthday. Think it would be fun.
-
The Windsor shounds like it would be nice.
We have a great one here at The Hyatt and a couple of other places too. The Hyatt's food is amazing but I can't help feel like Miss Piggy with my plate piled high and making a number of trips (as it is a buffet style)!
-
-oh and I'd love to see the photos from when you host your own! It would be fun...hard work, but fun!
-
Hard work but pink bubbles make it worthwhile ;D
Don't like buffet style, too scared people are counting how many times I go back ;)
-
I am not a buffet fan either Kimmyh but bubbles make it all worthwhile....especially included in the price ;D
-
We had a beautiful,velvety smooth, cauliflower and blue cheese soup and freshly baked rolls - all done in my one day old TM. I am soooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo chuffed with it.
I admit to being very nervous of spending lots of money on a "gadget" but.......... this is just beyond belief. I love it already and wish I'd bought it straight away. A gadget is not the right word for it, it's so much more than that.
Can you tell what a happy bunny I am???
-
I can tell from your post that you are chuffed with your TM past94x :D :D :D What bread recipe did you use?
-
we will be shopping so who knows
-
Rare roast beef rolls and lettuce :)

Vegies and noodles in Cantonese sauce. Looks like baby food but soft for my teeth and very tasty.
-
So what's up with your teeth Kimmy? ??? I think I must have missed something.
-
Oh I am just being a sook Amy. Had new tighter wires put on my braces yesterday and it still hurts to chew.
-
You have braces? What a bummer :( I had plates as a kid and I was told I would need braces, but I never got them :D
-
Yep, been on for 7 months and much cheaper than a boob job ;D ;)
Figured people will look at my dazzling smile and not the saggy baggies!!
-
ROFL!!!!!!!!!!! :D :D :D

Oh Kimmy... What a laugh...
You'd have liked my lunch then thick leek and potato soup, and my soft bread. The sour cream loaf in forum made with 50/50 coarse brown and white flours, and 50/50 Greek yog and sour cream.

Toasties - some vegemite, egg and cheese, some vegemite and egg, some ham and cheese :)
-

Carrot and coriander soup from EDC. Very nice.

I had a cous cous salad. I put cheese in there even though I don't like cheese, so I just ended up picking the cheese out again :-))
-
Avocado, baby Roma tomatoes, cucumber, rocket and chicken tossed together with a balsamic dressing.
Still hungry ;D
-
Salads sound good.
Zucchini pizza scrolls. Still yummy a day later :D
-
I was going to do a Chinese meal for lunch but a phone call put paid to that. The next best thing was the zucchini pizza scrolls which had been rising during the said phone call. Tea became lunch and vice versa.
-
Mince and potatoes and maybe even a pudding......

i must eat

We had lasagne. :) :)

Frozen broc, carrot and cauliflower with a can of salmon. So creative I know.

I am also having toasted ham and cheese not tomato though ;)
-
Leftover hoisin chicken. Tasted better today than last night. Interesting??
-
That is quite common Kimmy. The flavours develop over night and make it more tasty ;D
-
GS wanted boiled eggs for lunch so we all had them.
I agree Kimmy, some things are far better the next day.
-
Yes but it's still strange. Last night it tasted like it had too much vinegar. And with the recipe saying 2 tablespoons it seemed an error. Today I couldn't taste the vinegar!
-
Kimmy I usually make up the meal the day before and have it the next day it always tastes better that way ;)
-
Beef Bourguignon and cabbage/potato Gratin.
-
Looks good Judy :D
Leftover chicken parmigianas here :)

I love the idea of a cabbage gratin. Your meal looks very mouthwatering.
-
Leftover curry pasta salad.
-
CP, try this cabbage/potato gratin (http://www.eatlove.com.au/recipes/potato-cabbage-gratin/2336/) (this is the one Hally made and it won't be as rich as the version I made which has a 750ml bottle of white wine and a lot more cheese than Hally's). Directions will appear when you print it off. Recipes both Neil Perry's but so different.
-
pizza

Pizza from the freezer for us, GS requested it - lucky I had one in there :-))

It could have been a disaster if you didn't Judy ;) ;D
I'm having a salmon, cheese and mayo toasted sandwich :)
-
Yes, it was a stroke of luck Amy as last I knew, he didn't even like pizza. I had to remove the pineapple though :-))
-
Of course, there'll always be something they don't like ;D And grandmas are the best at picking things out. I remember my nana picking the lumps out of my jam when I had toast :D
-
Leftover curry veg fritters.
-
quiche

I made Courgettes a la Carbonara today and mixed it with thin spaghetti. The recipe was on newcomer Thermominoux's blog here
http://thermominoux.over-blog.com/article-courgettes-a-la-carbonara-thermomix-109917001.html. I made a few changes to the recipe method but it was delicious and I can even see this mixture wrapped in filo or puff pastry as well.

Mrs Duck's Chicken curry (http://www.forumthermomix.com/index.php?topic=2117.0) with added vegies/curried rice with raisins.
I've had that on my to try list for a while Judy. How was it? Yours looks good ;D
-
So simple Amy. It took me 3 minutes to make the sauce in the microwave. I added some garlic paste and considering it is so simple, it was really quite nice. 1/4 of the recipe made 2 servings though (with added vegies) and I think you could add tuna/salmon & sweetcorn instead of the chicken and just turn it into a fish mornay. You could also add some stock powder if you felt it needed something else.
-
Sounds like my kind of meal ;D Thanks Judy!
-
Toasted sammies! :D
-
quiche

Toasted sammies! :D

Sorry no photos, I scoffed it ;D Should make some at home as it is so easy.
-
Yummy photo Hally :D
Nikki, I love sushi too ;D My fave is california roll ;)

My fav is tempura prawn sushi :)
Lunch leftover vegie pasta.

I love chicken and avocado sushi but will eat any ;D
My GD makes it regularly and it's gone in a flash
-
Oooh, MF, maybe we can make sushi too ;D ;D ;D
-
I make my own sushi. Very simple when you know how but the first time - what a mess I made !
-
Its the fun and the taste that counts Chrissa ;D Hello! :D
I don't make sushi because SD doesn't like it :(
-
Jade can show us how to make it Amy. Last time she made it Tayana helped her ;D
-
We are having hot lamb & gravy rolls with salad today. :D
-
Jade can show us how to make it Amy. Last time she made it Tayana helped her ;D
I bet Tayana's looked better than mine will!! ;D ;D
-
Didn't see them Amy as they ate them all ;D
Tayana enjoyed helping her big cousin make them and it's the only fast food /takeaway that she will eat
-
The sushi must have tasted pretty good then ;D
I'm impressed that the only take-away Tayana eats is sushi ;) She sounds like a very healthy little girl :D
-

Tuna, pineapple casserole (http://bushgourmand.blogspot.com.au/2012/10/tuna-and-pineapple-casserole.html) from MJ's blog. I have half the dish left so have added a teaspoon of sambal oelek and will serve it wrapped in sourdough pancakes tomorrow.
-
JD you amaze me as you always seem to cook something different as very rarely have I seen you cooking the same dish more than once ;)
-
I do sometimes MF and I usually cook the whole quantity which means we have it for a couple of days but there are too many recipes to try out and I have to get a move on if I want to cook them all ;)
-
Girls requested pineapple (their new all time fave ATM) for lunch...and a picnic, so here is their lunch... :)
-
cute
-
That looks lovely astarra, I wouldn't mind a lunch box like that! :D Are they dolphin shaped sandwiches behind the love heart? :)
-
leftovers from dinner :)
-
Lunch today is not my usual tuna and salad. It is chicken, leftover meatloaf, ham off the bone, baby quiches, potato salad, rice salad, 2 second salad, tossed salad, Tenina's buttermilk rolls, Swedish cheesecake icecream cake, coulis and berries, followed by Robyn'sq fudge and Tenina's fruit and nut slice.
I think that is all. Obviously we are having visitors and Termite has been very busy. Only 8 dishes made by Termite and his robot helper.
-
I don't think you will be needing tea cookie! ;) :D
-
Girls requested pineapple (their new all time fave ATM) for lunch...and a picnic, so here is their lunch... :)
Lovely astarra, I'd better not show this to my girls or they'll want you to adopt them lol!
Today I had leftover red curry chicken & rice from last night's dinner. Kids had macaroni & cheese (made in TMX of course).
-
You should be full after all that food Cookie ;D ;D
-
Wow Cookie! :o
I'm guessing you only had a small portion of each ;D
-
You're a fun Mum when it comes to lunches astarra - you must have plenty of bread leftovers for breadcumbs ;D
Lunch sounds nice Cookie, enjoy your visitors.
We had leftover tuna/pineapple casserole wrapped in sourdough pancakes and served with salad.
-
Fabulous lunch Cookie ;D
I am just about to have leftover couscous salad with some barbeque chicken. We had it with lamb cutlets last night but they were all eaten.
-
I had a carrot, capsicum and cheese toasted sandwich ;D Took me 2 seconds to grate the vegetables. I love my thermie :D
-
Lunch was leftover frittata.
But now I wish I was at Astarra's house or cookie's ;D
-
That looks lovely astarra, I wouldn't mind a lunch box like that! :D Are they dolphin shaped sandwiches behind the love heart? :)
Thanks, yep the cutter (which is the same size as a normal slice of bread, only just fits inside the crusts - if it does) has 2 dolphins with a love heart in the centre.
The crusts then got used for a mini brunch dish for DHs lunch today! :D Love no waste! ;D

This is delicious!
-
looks delicious Judy, my kids love devilled sausages but it's usually made by me out of a continental packet so thanks for finding this and omitting another packaged product from my pantry your a gem xx
-
Suzanne, we used to love those continental packet mixes for Devilled Sausages too ;D It was a big favourite when I was younger! Now we don't eat sausages though :-))
They do look delicious Judy. Very hearty :D
-
I used to call it sausage suprise :D
-
I wouldn't have found the recipe unless one of our new members Shez weeks hadn't mentioned it as one of the meals she had done. It was over at RC and I'm not against using their recipes if they are good ;) This one is definitely good ;D
-
We use the continental packet too Judy. So thanks from me too.

That's the most important thing Kim ;D
Who knows what the future holds.... I might only have one or two kids.... but its nice to dream :D
-
Im sure you will make a great mum when the time comes amy.. We are all different and have different desires especially when it comes to kids .. Life would be boring if everyone wanted the same thing and desires change ..i wanted two at first then more and dh wanted three but now only two lol.. Just go with it and what will be will be 😁 (not now though lol!!)
-
LOL Kim! No kiddies just yet, but maybe in a few years. I would like to have them in my mid-late twenties if I've found the right guy by then. But now I'm just getting ahead of myself, calm down Amy :-)) All in good time ;)
Thanks for your faith in my to-be parenting skills Kim! ;D
-
Enjoy life a bit first 😁

-
Sounds fair to me ;D We sometimes have porridge for dinner :D
-
Miss6 is forever asking for porridge in her thermos to have for lunch at school! :-)) Think I'd have to put it in rather watery and thin as it would thicken on standing wouldn't it? ???
-
Slept in until 10am and had a list of things I wanted to make today but it was lunchtime before I knew I so I threw together a tuna/corn mornay to serve over pasta. Took 3 little containers around for Mum's freezer.
-
Good on you for having a long sleep in Judy, no doubt you deserve it :D

I would have had both ;D
I might try cooking my own sometime!
-
I could of had both Amy but the chicken one had bones so I couldn't be bothered picking them out :)
-
warmed up meatloaf sandwiches with gravy for me.

Amy I put my wontin recipe on here, somewhere ???
-
I'll have a look for it Hally :D I got your photo too, your wontons look yummy! Thanks you :D

Chicken bones in laksa ??? That wouldn't be allowed on Masterchef ;D
-
salad
-
I had bacon and eggs ;)
-
I buy readymade wonton wrappers from the Asian grocery. They're so cheap it's not worth making our own. I then use chicken mince, soy, sugar, shallots, bamboo shoots and shiitake mushrooms (last three ingredients all chopped finely). Mix together and start wrapping. I usually make bulk lot and freeze. Last time I made it I made about 60 I think.

Zucchini, carrot and dill muffins.

Thanks MEP. I want to try steamed wontons in the varoma but I don't cook much Asian food. I want to try rice paper rolls as well :) I'll try your recipe and Hally's too. Then I might be brave enough to make my own combination ;)
-
I have never tried steaming them Amy. I always cook as a soup with just chicken stock. The website www.rasamalaysia.com website is very good for Asian recipes. I always look there when I'm looking for an Asian recipe.
Good luck :)
-
Thanks for the link MEP :D
I thought steaming would be the healthiest option, but I will have to be careful not to dry them out. Mind you, cooking in chicken stock doesn't sound too bad either ;D I'll try both!!
-
Agreed Amy. I steam dumplings and the bottom is sometimes soggy, but the top Has dried out. Hence I always make wonton soup.
-
sounds yummy MEP.
I love wontons, spring rolls.
-
Amy im sure there is a laksa recipe in cindy omearas book?? Maybe someonewho as it can check.. I remember seeing it but my copy is in storage for the moment..
-
Oh, I have that book Kim, I'll check it out :D Thanks!
Robyn, do you make your own wontons and spring rolls too?
MEP, thanks for the warning about soggy bottoms :D
-
Mine (http://www.forumthermomix.com/index.php?topic=1726.0) probably isn't as healthy as Cindy's Amy but you could sub the coconut milk for the evaporated milk type.
-
Thanks for that Judy! Some great reviews there, definitely a must-try :D
-
Zucchini pizza scrolls.
-
Sammidges :D Cheese and salad for mum and SD, tinned salmon and salad for me ;)
-
Lemon Chicken, stir fried vegies/rice.
-
Amy, I make my own spring rolls, also buy the Mini spring rolls off a friend who has a barra farm.
Barra and vege spring rolls, or vegetarian spring rolls. :)
sometimes so easy to cook up for lunch, or if friends pop in for drinks.
love the mini size too.
-
looks delicious as always Judy ;D
ham and salad rolls here
-
Thank you suzanne, it was delicious.
-
Nice JD
We had roast pork, spinach & cheese toasties :P
-
I'm sure your boys would like it too Hally.
-
And mine as well Judy. Your photo looks so yummy. Much better than any takeaway I have seen.
-
Thanks Kimmy - I love the idea of cooking meat in a dish in the varoma, whatever size you cut it - it stays that size ;D
-
well I showed dd20 your photo and she wants it on the menu next week apparently it needs to look just like the photo, here's hoping I can do yours justice Judy;D
-
Of course you can Suzanne. ;D
-
I had sweet plum chicken
-
That sounds yummy Robyn, did you make it? :)
We're having leftover enchiladas, I can't wait :D :D

Suzanne you're making me even more excited ;D ;D
-
We had tuna patties with leftover stir fried vegies & rice.
-
Is that barramundi Robyn? That would be deliciously.
Everyone on forum seems to have such yummy lunches and dinners.
Based on recent discussions, I bought some Goya and wonton wrappers this morning to make some wontons and dumplings for the freezer.

Thanks Judy. Nice to be missed. :)

Good job with your soup Mich, I bet it was yummy :D :D
I had leftover stir-fry with some salad, but I made mum and SD potato wedges with eggs and baked beans :)
-
Yummy Amy, I love eggs and baked beans. :D
-
I don't mind boiled eggs and soldiers, but I've never been keen on baked beans ;D I will happily make them for someone else though! :D
-
Do you make your own Amy?
-
I used to Mich, but last time I made them mum said she didn't really like them so we started buying them again :-\ I don't know what I did to make her not like them. But I don't mind, heating up a can is easier even though I would enjoy making them from scratch :-)) :)
-
I like homemade but a can of bake beans is sooo nice too.
-
We had steak burgers with seeded mustard, mayo, tomato sauce, cheese, lettuce and tomatoes! ;D
-
Forgot my lunch today but luckily I had a sandwich in the freezer at work :)
-
As dod is out and mum is feeling under the weather im going to make quirky jos chicken and brown rice soup.. Nice and tasty and full of goodness..
-
Yum Kim, I've been meaning to try that soup for months :-))
Yvette, I didn't know sandwiches froze well :)
We will probably have sandwiches too :D
-
Its very nice amy... Havent had it for ages but still remember how yum it was... And mum feels like soup :)
-
I'm looking forward to when the weather cools down, I always find I enjoy soup more when its wet and cold outside ;D
-

-
When are you moving Amy? My daughter's visa came through last Friday, she will leave around 1st May depending on flights
-
I have the meatball loving GS here today so he helped me make 6 dozen turkey/pork meatballs from MJ's sister's blog. Found some Swedish meatball sauce in the freezer for our lunch and will send home most of the leftovers for DD's tea tonight - I'm sure she will be able to whip up a tomato based sauce to go with them.
-
Good cooking Judy, GS might be exhausted enough to have another nap today :)
-
Left over home made sushi. Miss 11 wanted it for lunch so I made some this morning for her. I got the scrappy ends, but still is good. Too hot here for soup...roll on winter.
-
When are you moving Amy? My daughter's visa came through last Friday, she will leave around 1st May depending on flights
Not until next year Yvette :) I am eligible for a British passport so I'm not restricted to the limited time on a visa :D
Judy, those meatballs look wonderful, I bet DGS had fun making them with you :D
-
My DD can get an ancestoral visa but just got the two year one for now. Is your mother or father british Amy?
-
Yes he did Amy, he made tiny ones for his plate.
No such luck today by the looks of it Yvette, he did say he wanted to have a nap but only lasted 30 seconds. We've finished playing for the day so he is now taking it in turns with Grandpa at the moment with the TV set - Playschool is on and like all kids, he loves it.
-
Oh well sounds like he has had a great day :)
-
My DD can get an ancestoral visa but just got the two year one for now. Is your mother or father british Amy?
Yes, my dad was born in the UK ;) So was SD but I don't think he counts :-))
No such luck today by the looks of it Yvette, he did say he wanted to have a nap but only lasted 30 seconds.
Now thats what I call a power nap ;D

Love Play School - My favourite part is what window they look through - the arched is my choice.
-
I always chose the arch too Mich!! :D :D And I always used to love the stories or when they did cooking ;D
-
Me too Amy - when my children were little they made French Toast. Still my adult children's favourite. 8)
-
Wow, Play School is even more influential than I thought ;D ;D
I remember them making all the basic things like scrambled eggs and toast, smoothies, fruit salad, pikelets, biscuits, cupcakes.... it all seemed so amazing and complicated back then but now I have a thermomix and a batch of cupcakes would take about 2 minutes :-))
-
Great looking meatballs Judy.It must have been fun making them with Fletcher. ;)
-
Amy qld is supposed to bemhot but this year summer has been extra wet and cool... All concentrated into non stop rain so lots of flooding, rain and winds etc.. Soup was perfect today... Btw amy the soup was as delish as i remembered... Love that soup.. Imake the stock paste too if i dont have any made up.. Was verytastyand healthy :)

I used worked in a fish factory with a big walk-in freezer which I had to go in sometimes :-)) ;D
I just love weather where I can wear big fluffy jumpers and boots and come home to a bowl of steaming soup and fresh bread ;D I'd say I'm crazy Kim ;)
-
I'd say you were too Amy ;D;D
one thing I hate is the cold winter is my least favorite season I have trouble getting and staying warm so not pleasant for me ::)
-
Thanks Suzanne, I like it when people agree with me ;D ;D
I guess you'd never be visiting me in the UK then? :)
-
nope sorry, hard enough getting me to go to tassie ;D;D
-
LOL :D :D
I will just have to come back to Oz to visit everyone (and defrost) once in a while ;D
-
Lovely looking salad Kimmy.
-
Today I'm having a toasted sandwich again. I might might myself a beetroot salad to have on the side since the bread is very small :)
Mum and SD have leftovers from last night, but I don't know why they want them. Last night's dinner was horrible :(
-
What did you have for dinner last night Amy?
I hate it when dinner is not enjoyable
-
It was chicken and spinach curry MF. But it tasted just like water. I even put extra cumin and coriander in it :(
-
What recipe did you use Amy?
-
Just got back from food shopping so wanted something quick - a turkey & cranberry sauce sandwich, DH loves this filling.
-
Yum Judy, turkey and cranberry is such a good combo :D
What recipe did you use Amy?
One out of a magazine. I should have just made up my own version, it probably would have tasted better ;D
-
Maybe it tastes better today after resting overnight Amy.
I had leftover coleslaw and a hot cross bun :)
-
sandwhiches ;D
-
Leftover potato bake and watermelon for me ;D
Sandwiches and watermelon for DS and DD ( at school ) :)

-
Leftover curry pasta salad.
-
Had Mum around for lunch today - not sure if she's ever tasted chilli in food before but once she got used to it, she loved it.
Lemon & Chilli Chicken skewers (with only 1/2 the chilli) from What's for Dinner.
Potato & egg salad, tossed salad and Asian-style slaw with soy & chilli dressing (http://www.taste.com.au/recipes/15899/asian+style+slaw+with+soy+and+chilli+dressing) from Taste.com.
Snicker-licious layered cheesecake (http://www.recipecommunity.com.au/recipes/snicker-licious-layered-cheesecake-non-bake/71681) and vanilla ice-cream for dessert.
-
Both dishes look lovely Judy.
Wonderful that you can still introduce new tastes to your Mum.
-
She's pretty good Katie, will try anything. She has now taken over my iPad and loving slotomania ;D Geoff is watching a war movie and she said if that is all that was on her TV, she'd get rid of it :D
-
Looks like a beautiful lunch JD
Jadey :)
-
That all looks delicious JD, especially the cheesecake. :)
-
Nice that you can still introduce new flavours jd .. Enjoy your day 😊
-
Yummo Judy :D
I had leftover beetroot salad with some leftover tempeh from last night and a slice of toast. Mum and SD had toasted cheese, bacon and tomato sandwiches :)
-
Yes, at 90 she isn't bad is she? I even got her to thread the chicken onto the skewers for me and I'm sure she has never done that before. She went home with her little doggie bag of leftovers after spending 6 hours with us.
-
What a wonderful day for your mum , JD!!! One very fortunate lady to have your love and support!!:)
-
What a great day Judy. Your lunch and dessert sound yummy.
Leftover beetroot salad and salmon patties here.

Your lunch looks delicious Judy.
DD gave me a piece of cheesecake on Thusday when I was there.Her DH had made it from the new Nigella Cookbook.It was lovely.
Nutella Cheesecake (http://www.nigella.com/recipes/view/nutella-cheesecake)
-
That looks decadent CC ;D
-
Did SIL put some liqueur in it CC? It certainly has some great reviews.
-
No there wasn't any liqueur in it Judy.It certainly was lovely but rich. ;) I loved it :D :D
-
Ooh, I saw Nigella make that on her TV series. It looks like my sort of dessert, but just not at the moment as I am trying hard to address the fact that my whole wardrobe has mysteriously shrunk lately. :-[
-
Oh dh would love that cc he loves rich chocolatey desserts
-
CC wow that does look good - so rich though! Would need cream / ice cream to cut through it I'd guess.
EmeraldSue - I've had that same problem! It's those calorie critters I'm sure.

Wow great spread Judy. I am sure your guests left with very full bellies.
We had fish and chips.

Caved and had fish & chips for lunch today - what was I saying about that diet? LOL

Fish and chips seem to be popular lately ;D
I had a big plate of salad with cottage cheese and a couple of small slices of toast :)

Going for a drive into the Swan Valley for lunch at a winery with DD2's MIL from Zimbabwe. She goes home on 22nd. Been a quick 3 months, :(
Not sure which winery yet but should be a nice day out. Thinking of asking my mum as well.
-
Sounds nice MF. Is this the first time your DD's MIL has visited Perth? If so, what does she think of our country? I hope your Mum takes you up on your invitation. If not, I'm available - well not really, I have my carers' meeting this afternoon ;D
-
sandwiches here - had no power and even now it is flickering... :-\
-
She has been here 3 times previously Judy and just loves Australia. She would dearly love to live here but impossible for her to obtain a residents visa. I really feel for her as she only has DD's children as no GK's yet in Zimbabwe. I have tried to step back so she could have time on her own with them as I can see them anytime and usually everyday. We all went to Zimbabwe 2 and 1/2 years ago and it was a wonderful experience.
Pity about your carer's meeting, maybe next time ;D
Mum not coming as she has a specialist appointment and no doubt if she cancelled she would have to wait a long time for a new appointment.
-
Leftover butter chicken and vegies.

Cheese and vegemite sandwiches aren't a very exciting weekend lunch Katie ;D When I was a kid we loved weekends because we got something other than the old cheese and vegemite sandwich :D :D
Soup and toasted sandwiches here today :)
-
I totally agree with you Amy but DD actually requested it and DS will only eat what his big sister is eating! :-)) ;D
-
I forgot to say we did have a little weekend treat of an ice cream ;) :D :D
-
Ice cream makes everything better! :D
DS sounds very cute ;D

-
Pizza today
-
jaffles

-
We had sausage rolls (& sauce :-)) )

Chorizo bolognaise with hidden vegies served over penne. GS gobbled his up with no complaints.
-
Love the hidden vegies Judy.

Yum Judy! I could go a serve of that in this weather ;D
But I have leftovers that need eating, so I guess I'll have them instead ;)
-
It's a hot day here today Amy, I'm hanging out for the cooler weather but if I've scheduled a roast then we have it regardless of the weather.
-
Nothing to beat a nice roast in any weather .
Your meal looks lovely Judy :)
-
Thanks MF, I hope Mum enjoys hers too - I just popped around and put a plate in her fridge, she was out.
-
That will be a lovely surprise for her Judy. :)
We had roast lamb last week and had mum here for dinner. She took a plateful home for the next nights meal too.
She wouldn't cook a roast for herself
-
I wonder if our kids will do the same for us one day MF :-))
-
Pork weber roast.
My DH's all time favourite Judy.Looks delicious ;) ;D

Homemade crumpets and honey :)

-
I've been meaning to try homemade crumpets but I just seem to forget ??? Need to write it down to remind myself ;)

Just cut up last weeks hot cross bun with lots of extra raisins for a bread and butter pudding.
Soaking it now with the egg milk and sugar.
Should be good. Hot pudding for fiercely cold day.
With a portion of mince from freezer turned into beef and tomato soup with added tom purée and a tinned of chopped toms, with my French bread.
-
Sounds yum DJ. Especially the pudding ;D
-
It was yum Amy
Here is the pudding - makes 3 portions.
One stale hot cross bun bun, two eggs, 1/2 tsp vanilla bean paste, 2 UK Tbsp sugar ( 1.5 Aus T) in measuring jug milk made up to 300 dl. Beat with whisk, pour over sliced and buttered bun arranged in dish with a good handful of large raisins amidst the layers.
Allow to soak at least 30 mins, I soaked 4 hrs.
Sprinkle with Demerara sugar pop in Oven 195' 25 mins approx or until well risen, slightly golden and set in the middle.
Serve with cream for best effect.
(http://i1255.photobucket.com/albums/hh621/Droverjess/0ea86efbae6c7997127d8277e298e677.jpg)
The beef and tomAto soup was good too.
2 portions of cooked mince from freezer or left over mince.
Add one tin of chopped tomatoes, 1 -2 Tblsp tomato purée, some veg or beef stock concentrate and 1/2 to 1 cup water ( this depends on how runny your mince is) or use actual stock.
Bring to boil and serve.
Made 3 portions.
It was yummy lunch! Ideal for this bitter weather.
-
Nice pud DJ :)
-
Great photo DJ, I can see myself making hot cross buns and letting them go stale just for a pudding ;D

A friend brought us a lovely curry last week when DH was discharged from hospital. I hope I can make one as good. Curry is not area of expertise for me!!

DJ - I'm sorry - I missed this. Didn't know your DH had been in hospital. I do hope everything's ok and whatever was the problem was, I hope it's out the door!! wow . . you could almost write a book on the last 12 or so months!! Wishing you both all the best - hope spring arrives soon and everything starts to fall into place for you as you would like it!

-
Cold here too. Made chinese chicken and sweet corn soup and Uni's 1hr bread rolls.
-
Astarra, what are lasagne toppers, they sound yummy
They are yummy, they are like individual portions of lasagne in a crumb. Really easy and really yum, tho you do need to be careful - if there is too much moisture in the mince part they can end up rather stodgy. Just make a pan of lasagne on one lasagne sheet, not too thick mince mix then cheese sauce mix, another lasagne sheet. Cool to be able to slice and handle (I find it easier to partially freeze) then crumb each portion, freeze til required! :D
Today we had bacon and egg quiches. :)
-
Buttered weetbix with marmite :D
-
Mich :o :-X I've never understood that combination ???
Warm here, so salad with leftover satay chicken. It was really yummy, the satay flavour had developed even more overnight. I think it was better ;)

Thanks GF and Suzanne.
I had curry instead for lunch and soup for supper.
I have pottered today - shower and hair, walk and few little jobs with lots of rest in between and time on the latest blankie.
I think it is more viral but am taking my amoxicillin. Third bug since Feb, all different and all last about 2 weeks with another two weeks to pick up after. Hopefully better weather will help, although it is forecast to be cold at the weekend.
I think going out all day on last Saturday instead of going to bed didn't help, but I had to go.
DH will be back tmro after doing a little work.
Here is the curry

Did you do this with the TMX, BZB? It looks wonderful !

Thanks, Suzanne. GF, I made it using a premade paste and adjusted the taste to my liking. But I'm sure I will be a legend amongst my Laksa-loving friends if I were to make the paste in the TMX. Hehehe.

Fish cakes that fell to bits. No wonder, I made them from left over mushroom risotto, mashed pots, white sauce and a tin of red salmon. I have since beaten in 3 eggs and am making a giant fish cake in an over dish. We will see how it goes. The chooks are looking hungry. ;D

Nice to be home, just made some chicken & veg soup for lunch.
-
Nice soup H :D
I had leftover meatballs and peas for lunch today.
BZB, i only had a loose recipe for the chowder. I put a couple of carrots, celery sticks and fennel sticks into my Thermie and whizzed on speed 5 for about 5 seconds. I then added 3 or 4 large potatoes that I had peeled and roughly chopped, 1 L of water, a tablespoon of Tenina's chicken stock powder and some black pepper and cooked (Varoma temp) everything on speed 2 for about 15 -20 minutes, until the potatoes were soft. I then fried a couple of chopped rashers of bacon in my Le Cruset pot on the stove, added the contents of my thermie jug, a tin of light evaporated milk and a tin of sweetcorn. I then simmered it on the stovetop until it was hot and added about 500g of mixed seafood (prawns, calamari, mussels, blue grenidier, salmon and another white fish) and cooked for a couple of minutes more until the seafood was just cooked. I garnished each bowl with a splash of cream and some chopped coriander and served with a warm bread roll. There was enough for 5 of us to eat well, and some leftover for lunch.
-
Yummy, ES! Thanks :)

Yesterday for lunch we had pies and chips - the first time I used my new Sunbeam pie maker.
The meat pies were made using Tenina's beef and ale pie (FFS) but cooked in the slow cooker the day before.
For the chicken pies I fried chicken, leek and mushrooms together and mixed with Uni's SOS sauce, peas, corn and leftover roasted pumpkin. The SOS sauce made the perfect base for the pie mixture.

How long did you have to queue, bonsai?
-
We just had my chicken nuggets then apple puree :)
-
Lunch at the pub with no children ;D
-
We didn't have to queue - we booked about 10 days in advance. The waitperson told us dinner was busier (late lunch was only 50% full) and some people queue for up to 3 hours for dinner - forget that! She said they do keep some tables vacant for "on the night" arrivals but I'd guess you'd have to be pretty early to get one.
-
I've been at the nursing home since 9.45 am today and staff offered me a nice roast chicken lunch - who could refuse that! It was delicious.

Sounds yummy JD. :)

I wanted to make Jo's recipe but didn't have any buttermilk, so I made Nay Nay's instead...I forgot how yummy and easy scones are, I should make them more...and as a bonus it kept DD busy for a little while making shapes (and eating) the dough :)
-
Good idea to keep DD busy jam. I love nay nay's recipe too. I didn't have buttermilk either, so used lemon juice and normal milk as per EDC suggestion. Seemed to work fine.

Oh that's good to know Kimmy, I'll try that recipe next time :)

Dim sum lunch for us, DB and my Mum and Dad plus DS for a belated birthday lunch. Cheated and bought a lot of dumplings, steamed buns and spring rolls from local Chinese grocer then steamed/deep fried them at home. Also bought a whole Chinese BBQ duck for not much more than a raw duck! Added some home-made spicy chicken feet and sous-vide pork belly. So many left overs, won't have to cook for days now.
Normally I would do everything from scratch but getting a bit tired of having every family celebration here for whole family (up to 12 people) with almost no help apart from DH. Mum and Dad have earned a break but as for the rest of the gang, well they eat and run 😡. Just as well we love them as DH has suggested abandoning Christmas !

Today we had the in-laws here for lunch, as it was MIL's birthday during the week.
The are but hard to cook for - as MIL is gluten free and hates garlic & chilli. FIL will only eat meat if it is in the form of sausages or mince (not sure why), but he does like seafood. I thought we'd have a selection of things and they could choose what they wanted.
We had spicy pork balls & vegetarian pasties (Quick Fix Every Occasion), prawn cold rolls, chicken san choy bow, prawns, avocado salad (from Alyce's low carb book) and a magic bean chocolate cake (which I got carried away decorating!).

yum Katie that all looks very delicious, lucky in laws ;D
-
Yum Katie :)
-
Hope they enjoyed it Katie, it looks a fantastic spread. I would have called in for some leftovers if I'd seen that picture before I left Geoff ;D
-
yum
-
Fabulous food Katie 8) So thoughtful for you to provide for different tastes.I hope they enjoyed it all ;D
-
Lovely lunch Katie :)
-
Amazing Katie and such a great variety. I love how you decorated the cake. OTT in a good way 😊
-
That all looks fantastic Katie. I would love your san choy bow recipe if you have it handy.
-
Wow! Looks impressive Katie!
-
Egg and lettuce sandwich
-
I'm going to have a couple of BBQ'd sausages in a roll and will do extra to take in and see if Geoff fancies one. He's obviously sick of nursing food home now and is getting stuck into pies, pasties, fish & chips, spring rolls and egg/lettuce sandwiches that his sister and I take in for him. He has asked for crayfish but that will have to wait as a special treat for Christmas :-))
-
chicken and salald
-
Fish and salad - only me and the baby here today so nearly forgot! :-[
-
Geoff certainly sounds like he has his appetite back Judy :)
-
He's just eaten almost 2 large sausages and only had a bit of trouble with the last little bit. RN walked in on us but said she 'saw nothing' LOL
-
Haha that's great Judy :)
-
hear nothing, see nothing... :D :D
-
That's great Judy, you must be thrilled that he has picked up and able to enjoy some treats.
-
Good one judy. Funny to fancy crayfish . I can buy frozen raw tails quite cheaply here. Well not so cheap as great value being the tails only and in all sizes. Maybe try to find a small one at the seafood places at the markets Judy.
Gert
-
Great news that Geoff is eating more Judy. ;) ;D
-
Great news that Geoff has his appetite back and is eating well. Is crayfish something he has always enjoyed?
That all looks fantastic Katie. I would love your san choy bow recipe if you have it handy.
Thanks Wonder. Sorry I didn't actually use a recipe (or cook the san choy bow in the TMX). I did it on the stove and just mixed a few things together - I was trying to make it not spicy or hot, for the in-laws tastes. I had some leftovers for lunch today and it was tasty enough.
-
Yum Katie
I made quiche lorraine and focaccia for lunch. Yum!
-
Loving the see nothing nurse Judy. Great Geoff is eating well. You must be so relieved. :-* :-*
Lunch today will be mini bacon and egg quiches. :)
-
Thanks Katie, I have a few recipes but never seem to get around to making it.
-
Mini meatloaves for lunch today - DS picked up a recipe for them at the supermarket....which I basically ignored and just made up my own version with what I had, but he was happy to have "his" recipe in his lunchbox ;)
There aren't as many left as I thought there would be - DH discovered them in the fridge last night!
-
Steak sandwich
-
raisin toast, Tim Tams
-
Poached eggs on toast with frozzies hollandaise. Yummy.
-
Quiche Lorraine and foccacia toasted with avocado. Already dreaming about tomorrow's lunch.
-
I'm going to have to try that hollondaise.
I love my thermomix on so many levels but one of the main reasons is this......I had a green smoothie for my lunch. My almost 3 year old begged for his share. This picture is his finished glass. It contained pear, banana, almonds, chia, silverbeet, parsley and mint. If anybody is questioning the price tag of this machine I say it is worth every cent and more. Never put a price on your loved ones health. If it gets a young boy to enjoy something this green, surely it's worth it?....

-
That's fantastic brumington. My kids won't go near my smoothies, but then again I don't tend to add fruite that masks the vegetable taste and they are never sweet.
-
I agree brummington. Absolutely worth it.
I had a Turkish bread roll and beetroot salad and sat at a very small table with my knees up around my neck and 25 four year olds watching. Guess who had kinder duty 😁😄
-
Love the picture you have drawn, Kimmyh.
-
I've got some pickled pork in the varoma for lunch with steamed vegies today. Oops, found the mashed potato in the TM bowl after I'd eaten :D
-
Leftover Isi's portuguese shrimp soup and curry mince on sour dough toast.
-
Smoked trout, avocado, Jarlesberg, tomato and red onion saladas.
-
LOL, just had a picnic beside the river, and fed the ducks. Suddenly miss2 said "But I don't see the ducks' kitchen." ??? We said they didn't have one. She said "well where do they keep their Thermomix then? Cuz they must have a Thermomix so they can make their bread for them to eat." ;D ;D ;D :-))
-
Cute Astarra, your girls are so funny. I love how you take them on picnics too, such a lovely family thing.
-
Oh how cute Astarra!
-
cute..
Today lefrtovers chicken pies..
-
Are you polishing off 3 huge chicken pies in two meals?LOL!
Gert
-
Still using my pickled pork from 5 days ago - this is my 4th meal from it + 2 have been given to Mum and we've both had sandwiches as well. Great value, a small piece left now for my last sandwich.

I knew I shouldn't have looked at this thread - it is sheer torture - I'm on day 1 of my 2 day fast on the 5:2 diet. I actually had one apple and a spoon of CoYo yoghurt for lunch. Looking forward to something a bit tastier and more substantial for dinner.
I'm just off to the fridge to fantasise now!

Yesterday I made Quirky Jo's Quick egg curry with quiona and it was yum, my 15 month old daughter loved it as well and its the first time I have cooked quiona with success, soaking it in apple cider vinegar for 1 hour so worked for me.

-
Pumpkin soup and a slice of toast.
-
We had some pizza buns. I used herbs from my garden,chives basil and oregano, sundried tomato, cheese and garlic oil in with the flour. Cheese on top. Everyone thought they were good but i think more herbs required.
Really nice to be baking bread again, have done the last 2 days, forgot how quick and fullfiling it is. Not o mention a lovely smelling house.
-
Cold here , so pea, ham and vegetable soup with SD toast.
-
nachos
-
Pizza buns sound good, Denise. How long do you proof in this heat?
-
Bzb, i have no idea, just until double. I feel like i am always on the run, just keep looking in. The main reaon i dont post recipes very often is i tend to be a messer and not record little details like how long. This is also why my product isnt as sophisticated as yours BZB.
Have made cheesymite scrolls this morning and for our little fellow nutella scrolls. He wouldn't even try my buns yesterday.
-
I'm sure he will soon Denise. Perhaps without too many herbs on his. :). The rolls sound delicious.
-

Bacon and egg mini quiches (but I'm not telling just how many!!) ;)

Today's lunch was creamy mustard pork medallions (Hally sent me the recipe, thanks Hally) with vegies steamed in the varoma. Used 1/2 a pork fillet and will take a small meal around to Mum. Probably use the other 1/2 for a snitzel tomorrow.

That looks great Judy. I had a turkey pie made with left over Christmas turkey, mushrooms, corn and peas - it was really nice and I could probably eat a second.
-
we just had chicken breasts fillets in bread rolls, and salad
-
ham, cheese and onion dip toasted sandwiches. :)
-
We had the in-laws over for a BBQ today.
I found a really quick Nigella recipe for a fruit tart which I made for desert. It's just a cheesecake base, cream cheese and lemon curd whipped together then topped with fruit. Very easy as I had a jar of lemon curd already made and in the fridge. Everyone enjoyed it.
(http://img.tapatalk.com/d/14/01/02/y5uzabe6.jpg)
-
Roasted pumpkin, feta and caramelised onion tart with salad. Convincing my MIL daily why she needs a TMX!

Lovely fresh looking dessert Katie.

Yum Katie! What a lovely looking dessert. I must try that sometime - sounds quick and easy.
-
That's a beauty.
Gert
-
Lovely looking tart Katie.
-
That looks great Katie.
Think I'll have another turkey pie or leftover Macaroni beef today
-
Oh yum Katie!
-
Pork parmigiana (using Tenina's sugo pomodoro sauce) with vegies here.
-
Looks food judy. We had lamb chops with smashed potatoes, fresh corn on the cob and broccoli.
I used a bit of the oil from Tenina's confit of garlic on the potatoes before crimping them up. Delish. So subtle.
You could have use a bit from your jar on the potatoes.
Gert
-
Your lunch looks delicious Judy.
-
The sugo sauce looks great Judy. Love parmigiana.
I made the EDC focaccia and topped it with leftover caramelised onions from Sundays pizza, thyme and feta.
(http://img.tapatalk.com/d/14/01/03/gu7yququ.jpg)
-
Thanks girls, good hint there Gert - I didn't even think of it. I could have cooked the crumbed pork in it too :-))
Has anyone added a clove or two from the confit to their mashed potato?
-
Wow Kimmy, that focaccia looks amazing - so professional - as DH would say I would pay big money to eat that ;D
-
Thanks girls, good hint there Gert - I didn't even think of it. I could have cooked the crumbed pork in it too :-))
Has anyone added a clove or two from the confit to their mashed potato?
I added it to my mash with the haggis. Delish. Very sweet judy.
-
Thanks Gert.
-
I need to make a focaccia now after seeing that photo.. :)
-
BBQ'd sausages, bubble & squeak and an egg here. I'm going to take a couple of sausages into Geoff, he'll be very pleased to see me today ;D
-
Yum Judy.
-
Looks good Judy. My DH would love that.
Kimmy that foccacia is spectacular.
-
Thanks girls, it was very tasty - not something I have very often but Geoff always liked it.
-
Yum!
I would like to cook the sausage rolls I made yesterday. But DH won't let me turn the oven on. Lol. So ham sandwiches or saladas it probably is.
-
since when does one listen to DH.... ;D ;D ;D ;D sorry.
Abbout to cook slices, and stuff for work.
-
He gets grumpy when it's hot lol. So do the kids! But I'm cooking tonight. We've all been bathing in the kids pools on the verandah :)
-
Gnochi
-
The gnocchi looks delicious Hally.
I finished off the focaccia for lunch whilst the boys and DH had mcdonalds.....ugh!
-
Your gnocchi looks lovely Hally but it's not liked in this household :-))
My DH loves MacDonald Kimmyh.Very often if he has a business meeting he will seek a visit to the "Golden Arches" for lunch. :D
-
Does he put his fries inside his burger CC? DH loves it that way. I don't get it at all.
-
Yep the man loves a "chip butty" :P
-
Lol 😄😄😄
-
He gets grumpy when it's hot lol. So do the kids! But I'm cooking tonight. We've all been bathing in the kids pools on the verandah :)
My DH doesn't like me putting the oven on and having the air con going at the same time, which is why I purchased a small convection oven and put it in the laundry. I've used it everyday since I got it. :D
-

Gert
-
Looks lovely JD :)
-
Thanks girls, have just taken out a pork loin chop to BBQ tomorrow to go with the rest of the vegies.
Oh, must tell you the age of those pieces of vacuum packed sirloin - 2 years old tomorrow and I still have 6 pieces of it in there. It was some of the original meat I bought when I purchased the stand alone freezer for the laundry.
-
Scrambled eggs and rice pudding!
-
lemon chicken
-
Pork loin chop & leftover vegies from yesterday.
-
Oh, must tell you the age of those pieces of vacuum packed sirloin - 2 years old tomorrow and I still have 6 pieces of it in there.
let us know how it went, that would be very interesting to know if it "loses" anything in that time
-

The question is why on earth is it still there after 2 years. ;D ;D ;D
Gert
-
The sirloin was great CP, as was the 9 month old pork chop, vacuumed packed but I wasn't expecting them to be so good.
Geoff wasn't able to eat steak for some time before he went into care Gert so it just sat there but I am making inroads into my stock now.
-
Good on you Judy. No buying more until it is gone!
Gert
-
We had chicken schnitzels with salad and buns today. :)
-
I had leftover bread rolls with hot smoked salmon in creole seasoning with red onion, baby spinach and Jarlesberg cheese. Delish.

Yummy burgers mcmich, great looking salad Kimmy. Anything with avocado and honey mustard has got to be good! Can't pass up a seafood pie either Judy.
We had left over stirfried noodles and sausage rolls.
-
Chinese food here at the beach, so yummy :)
-
All these lunches look delicious. I always have a salad with some sort of protein and D H has left overs. We have our main meal in the evening, and with only the 2 of us it is quick and easy.
-
We are the opposite cookie. We have had our main meal at lunch ever since DH retired. Often it is no supper or a salad or something simple. DH likes his toast and vegemite fix in the evening.
Gert
-
Im making the quinoa bites from the recipe in the latest newsletter from HO (the recipe is on recipe community). Haven't cooked with quinoa before, and found it fiddly with the little bits going through the slots in the steaming basket and getting stuck in the strainer.
But the bites look and smell really yummy!
-
I cook quinoa in the Thermothingy with the basket lined with a chux sometimes but the stove top is easier I think. Also ok in microwave.
Gert
-
Thanks for the tip Gert - didn't think of lining it with a chux. We don't have a microwave, but I think for the small amount this recipe uses, the saucepan might be easier.
-
I cook it in the microwave, turns out perfect. First time I used TM basket & lost most of it :)
-
Thanks for the great tip Gert :)
-
Sunday lamb roast dinner today ;D
-
Mmmmm, those quinoa bites were SO yummy. I have more quinoa soaking tonight to make another batch tomorrow.
-
My other seafood pie and the remaining vegies.

-
They look like they come from a bakery Kimmy. You have done an excellent job. :D
-
They do look nice Kimmy. I must make them this week as my zucchini plants are doing well- today I found a few I had missed that had suoersized themselves during the heat wave.
-
We love those zucchini scrolls here too - my plants are producing well again so......... ;D ;D ;D
-
we went to the pub.. :)
-
Kimmyh those zucchini scrolls look tasty.
Salad sandwich here for me.

Gert
-
That looks really good Gert. Great summer colours.
-
looks lovely Gert.
-
Cookie's tandoori paste. Air fried. Was yummy!

-
For lunch for me and the GKs today I took down a container of frozen SC turkey & pineapple casserole which I did for CC when she stayed here. I was going to serve it over pasta but GD didn't want pasta. GS didn't want potato but what's new so I did potato anyway. Guess who went back for seconds, potato and all :D Still half a container for DD to use tonight if she so wished.

Lovely photo INAID :D

Inaid- that is one gorgeous photo ... Love the delighted look on your little one's face!! :)
Gert, what a beautiful meal! Perfection in my books!! Love seafood!! ;D

Inaid, what a beautiful photo and the meal looks delicious.\
Gert, what a great lunch ;D
-
Gert, you lunch looks delicious.
Lovely photo INAID.
We have an abundance of tomatoes here at the moment so cooked some up to have on toast.
-
Thankyou all! My two barely left any for mum and dad.
Lunch today (http://img.tapatalk.com/d/14/02/01/bu4y5e8u.jpg)
Just needed the glass of red.
Gert where do you buy your seafood from?
-
What a brilliant idea for lunch INAID. Is that flatbread?
-
Hi Kimmy yes flat bread toasted under the grill :) it was just missing red onion and olives. We had three different types of cheese, pepperoni, smoked chilli Karumba, garlic marinated mussels, semi dried tomatoes, mini Roma tomatoes, mixed lettuce, cucumber. I think that's all. Served up with a good splash of balsamic vinegar. That plate was for us all to share in :)
-
Great idea for the kids to make their own lunch INAID.
What to have for lunch, I had a piece of quiche thawed out but then didn't feel like that so I whipped up my version of something I saw Justine Schofield make recently, it might even have been yesterday ;D
Warm potato, tuna salad - yum yum!
-
Judy, a recipe/method if you can . Please?? ;D
-
Yes please Judy. Just right for this hot weather.
Smoothies for lunch here.
-
Here's the recipe girls. http://www.forumthermomix.com/index.php?topic=14822.0
-
The fridge is almost bare but I managed to rustle up this lunch today. The Garden Harvest Quiche was made ages ago from a little Sanitarium booklet and has 3 weetbix in the pastry. I wasn't that keen when it was first made but after it being frozen and reheated, I must say it tastes pretty good. The potatoes were held back from yesterday's warm tuna salad with these crispy little cubes in mind and for salad, beetroot and cucumber was all I could manage today. Shopping is on the agenda for later in the day - if I can fit it in.
-
We had pies today :D
-
Judy's warm potato & tuna salad.
-
Left over chicken & veg soup :)

Made some pesto this morning using a combination of a couple of different recipes. Not keen on pesto normally but I did enjoy my pesto pasta for lunch today.
-
Homemade sausage rolls.
-
i love homemade sausage rolls Astarra, you are making me hungry.
-
Me too. Great sausage rolls Astarra.
-
Been craving for some Penang Assam Laksa. So whipped up a pot of piping hot soup for lunch, despite it being summer. 😋

Looks lovely BZB.
We had a picnic at Mangrove Mountain today. Guacamole dip, garlic and herb dip, JD's caramelised onion tarts. Homemade burgers and chicken satay sticks.
-
Thanks Mich. Mangrove Mountain sounds so charming :) Would have loved to be at your picnic. So much yummylicious food!
-
I really should look at this thread at about 10am not 10pm. Tummy rumbling! We took mum and dad out for mums birthday today. Lovely brunch at Mama Coco.

I've been trying to pinpoint my fave....they are different to each other but both really yum. :D Will have to cut the same size pieces of chicken and do some of each coating then cooking exactly the same way to properly compare them. :)

I was wondering the same thing BZB.

what we call 'luncheon egg luncheons' :) for lunch today
Is devon in a tea cup, crack an egg into it, pop yolk, put another slice of devon on top then microwaved til egg is cooked - I did 2 @ a time, for 2min10sec.
-
That sounds interesting Astarra. I can't remember the last time I bought devon - probably when the kids were little. :D
-
I don't buy it myself - the FIL apparently accidentally got it when he was meant to get ham, so MIL gave it to us, and I remembered this way that mum used to cook it for us. The girls loved them :-\
-
Had to google "Devon" girls as I didn't know what it was :D :D :D :D We call it "Luncheon Meat" here ;)
-
My children loved devon and tomato sauce sandwiches - I did give in and let them have an occasional devon sanger.
-
We call it fritz in Sth Australia CC.
-
I think its what we call polony in WA.
-
we call it devon here
-
Was luncheon meat in Scotland too CC and polony here in WA.
None of my kids liked it and I haven't bought it in years.
-
I can't bring myself to buy Devon. But we did have it on sandwiches as a kid with tomato sauce.
-
When I was a little girl growing up in nz, it was luncheon. Hence being named luncheon egg luncheons, really original! :-))
-
it was lunchon meat for us too.
Today leftovers lamb pies
-
Homemade sausage rolls. :)
-
My Thermi came yesterday and for lunch today I cooked sweet corn cobs in the veroma tray. Absolutely delicious, will never cook them any other way, very proud of myself:)
-
great Penny, you will soon be a whiz..
avacardo on toast
-
Well done penny. Many are very hesitant to use the varoma so you are doing well!
Sushi with smoked salmon, carrot and cucumber.
-
I agree with INAID Penny, most of us waited ages before using our varoma - not sure what was so scary about it now though.
-
Just eaten the pumpkin soup and bread rolls, absolutely delicious. Used a Laucke bread mix, multigrain, soy and linseed. I need to get Trevor to take me shopping to get lots of ingredients for my cooking. Need things that he hasn't bought before and as I can't write down exactly the brand etc I need to go with him. Not sure how we will go, first time in the wheelchair in a supermarket :)
-
what about shopping online Penny, and home delivery..
-
Found a new website this morning, liked what I saw so ordered the book (http://astore.amazon.com/sevenpillarsh-20/detail/161468135X) from Amazon. From the recipes (http://www.sevenpillarshouse.org/article/gould_farm_cookbook_recipes/) they have online I made Roasted brussel sprouts with Dijon & garlic to go with a small piece of curried tuna slice for lunch today. The sprouts were oh so good, will post the recipe.
-
Naughty lunch today coffee, tim tam birthday cake and a sneaky piece of vanilla slice that didnt go to the boys at work!
-
Hmmm - must be naughty lunch day - I had a rum & coke (to socialize with a very kind friend who came to give me a hand today seeing as I couldn't do much) and some crackers, followed by a honey sandwich... ??? :-\ :-[
-
I had peanuts, just felt like snacking......
-
Thanks obbie, I have done online shopping with delivery but then they made deliveries very expensive. So then I did 'click and collect' with Trevor go of to the store. I was thinking of getting things from Flennerys but I don't think they do online, I will check.
-
We have a discount pharmacy here that do very cheap organic flours etc.
Lunch was with mum and Miss Lil. I had a veggie stack, a delicious pot of chai and took in the ambience. It all warmed my soul :)
-
Chilli con carne.
-
A jam and cheese sandwich ;D
-
Jam and cheese?? :-X
we had chicken nuggets and mashed potatoe bites.
-
Yes astarra, jam & cheese, it's really nice. DH took one in his lunch just about every day of his working life along with another sandwich or whatever else going. Meat, stew, egg etc. He called the jam one his dessert. :D :D
-
My DH grew up on cheese and jam sandwiches. Just like putting fig/quince paste on a cheese platter. :)
-
Pizzas in the tandor oven. Eating while watching the footy, wce v dockers. Boys are going wce & I am a dockers fan :)

-
pumpkin soup
-
We went to the MILs
-
The last of some chicken noodle soup today. I reheated it in the TM bowl after I made a batch of umami paste and it certainly did take the soup to the next level.
-
I have yet to make umami paste, Judy. The missing dulse flakes stopped me :(
-
BZB - there have been times I've just left out the dulse flakes and it's been fine. Or else just flake up some nori . . . :)
-
Painting again today, so DH and I had porridge for lunch.
-
That made me ;D, Michele!
We had scrambled egg, Miss4 and Miss11mths had theirs made with soy milk, had never done it before (usually don't bother with milk based meals simply because of miss4's allergy) and they loved it!! Miss11mths had 3 helpings!!! :o :o :o This is a madam who has refused to eat the last few days while cutting molars. (& not appreciating shop-brought food where she is used to TM made food) ;) :D Was pretty darn happy about that! :D :D :D
-
That's lovely Astarra. Can't beat that feeling when your children enjoys your cooking 😄😃
-
That must have made you smile Astarra :)

Gosh astarra, can't believe she is nearly 1yr old already. That time has gone fast.

I BBQ'd some sausages this morning as I wanted to take some around to Mum and also to have on hand for astarra's filled sausages but who can't resist a sausage sizzle. So, at 10.30 for lunch I had caramelised onion and sausage in a roll :-)) I did have a very early breakfast (for me anyway) so it felt like lunchtime.
I've also made a rice pudding for Mum so I'm going to sneak a small bowlful for myself and have a dessert for lunch as well.
-
Your girls seem to be such good eaters Astarra.
They seem to be mostly. We are very fortunate. :)

I had to go out,,,, then a ids party :)

BZB, chicken and mushroom pie mix is very easy. I use leftover roast chicken. Uni's S O S chicken sauce mix, one onion and garlic. Handful of mushrooms. Can add other veggies like carrot and peas.
Cook onion and garlic in a little oil in TMX , add SOS mix and water and cook. Add chopped up chicken and mushrooms and cook on reverse 5 minutes.
Can be used as pie filling, on toast, on rise or as pasta bake.
Yesterday made Jill Duplix's Prawn Toasts. Very nice but shallow fried and don't want to do this very often. I have 1/2 the prawn mix left over so will add water chestnuts and make won tons.
-
Cup-of-avocado soup (http://www.forumthermomix.com/index.php?topic=15375.0) for lunch today, delicious.

Prawn Toasts, in AF, will post recipe.
-
They look good Chookie. I haven't had prawn toasts for years, I used to do them when I had Chinese dinner parties back in the 80's I think it was using the Woman's Weekly Chinese Cookery Class cookbook which I'm sure many of you have. I have a few prawns in the freezer so it looks like a nice, healthy version is coming our way.

I made a recipe from the Thermofun blog - Spiced pumpkin hot chocolate (http://thermofun.com/thermofun-thirsty-thursday-spiced-pumpkin-hot-chocolate-recipe/) and will make the spiced pumpkin puddings (http://thermofun.com/thermofun-spiced-pumpkin-hot-chocolate-puddings-recipe/) with the leftovers later today. I didn't have enough pumpkin so made up 1/3 of the quantity with sweet potato.
I found the spices too much for me in the hot drink so added some cold milk to my cup. The recipe makes makes 3 cups.
Update - Using the remaining 2 cups of the hot drink, I didn't tone down the spicy taste for the puddings and it was fine.
-
DS' birthday tomorrow. So made something different for him and his brothers for their lunches at school 😃

They look awesome BZB. Did you have to cook the sausages first?
-
Yum Bzb and Judy.

Awwww......thanks CC 😘😘
Mich, I used the breadmaker to make the yummylicious dough. It has milk powder which makes the bread really fragrant.
Snappy, I cooked the sausages in the airfryer before making the buns.
-
A foccacia with chicken, avocado, cheese & sun dried tomatoes. And there is enough filling left to have another one tomorrow. :P :P

Thanks for your kinds words, Bootobethin. I've posted the method for you. Hope you like it 😃

Thank you BZB. I will give them a try but will need to use a soft bread recipe with out the milk powder and butter. I can easily substitute Nuttalex for butter but milk powder is more difficult.

Out to lunch today. I gave the 2 oysters from my plate to my neighbour (we both had the grilled seafood platter) and I've just heard she's been ill all afternoon :o :o I've informed the hotel, just hope she is over it and will be OK now.
-
Blimey Judy that was a near miss for you but your poor neighbour.DD loved Oysters but she too had bad ones and hasn't been able to face them again.
-
Poor neighbor Judy, and you must feel terrible too. :(
Chicken rice rissotto here today.
-
Thought I'd better try the food I'm about to take around to Mum - I used the sauce from this recipe (http://www.forumthermomix.com/index.php?topic=13488.0) of Cookies with a couple of changes. Very nice with some parmesan shaved on top.

We had this freekah, pomegranate and I can't remember what else salad for lunch today at Stephanie Alexander's Richmond larder. I'm going to try and re create it when we get home. It used pomegranate,molasses in the dressing.

Nice and colourful Cookie.

Looks very healthy Cookie ;D

looks healthy :o
-
A very pretty looking lunch cookie.
-
The menu from Richmond Larder' website has this : Freekeh salad , toasted slivered almonds, shredded carrot & beetroot, Goji berries, spring onion, green beans & rocket served with a pomegranate molasses dressing
Looks like this is what you had, must have been delicious. I love crunchy bits in salads and the pomegranate molasses would have given a sweet/sour touch
-
Thanks Bonsai, much appreciated.

Toasted sandwich here 8)
-
That looks so pretty Cookie
-
Soup and roll.
-
Snapper fillets in Panko crumbs, 2 second salad, potato pancakes.
Cookie, we have often been to this restaurant. Always have something nice. Usually finish off with a cheese platter. Like the look of this salad.
-
DD and I had fruit salad and yoghurt from the DJ's food hall today. It was so nice to have something simple and very light. Lucky I am doing lots of walking as we are certainly eating well. We actually had morning tea at Koko Black so needed a very light lunch. ;)
-
I had a turkey/cranberry sauce/salad/rye Mountain Bread wrap.

Not a lot of cooking happening here but I have been enjoying the beetroot,carrot and green apple salad. Today i mixed through some tuna and chilli. I did an order through The local Grocer , a seasonal veggie box. It is beautiful so fresh and delicious. Getting another on Friday.
-
We had bacon and egg mini quiches :D
-
Last nights leftover tuna and sweetcorn sauce on julienned courgette (instead of pasta) as I don't have a spiraliser.
Raspberries for after.
It's a great raspberry summer this year!
-
Sounds delicious DJ. I love raspberries but sadly very expensive here.
-
We'll I got a large basket for £5 sold for jam
But they were good enough to eat, so made some jam, and eaten most!
Went and got another basket and put in freezer!
Might see if can get another £5 basket for eating... Per punnet they are expensive £2.29 per small punnet.
-
Wish we could get them here for that price as love raspberries. Loved your English strawberries so bet the raspberries are wonderful!!!
-
Pizzas on my first trial of home made English muffins (obviously didn't bake them hot enough, but they worked fine as pizza bases!) 8)

Enjoy your lunch with the ladies.
Today I'm buying chicken & chips to take in for Geoff - we are going to have our own grand final party ;D I asked him if he wanted some coleslaw as well. "let's not get too carried away" was his reply :-))
-
Great looking loaf Gert.
Enjoy the grand final Judy & Geoff. :D
-
Lovely loaf Gert
-
We had egg submarines today....basically just an egg, cheese and bacon mixture spread onto long bread rolls and toasted...a favorite with DH and the kids ;D :)
-
That loaf looks amazing Gert; just the type of bread we like. Is the recipe on here.

Just a simple loaf some in a Dutch oven( saucepan with lid). Leucke soy and linseed flour.. Too easy.
Gert

Bedlam posted a recipe here (http://www.forumthermomix.com/index.php?topic=15846.msg373581#new) Michele.
-
Thanks guys, risotto is always good for using up bits and pieces.
-
Decided to cook a nice lunch today and have a glass of wine with it. One serve for Mum and one of those rack of lamb chops from my plate is now going to Geoff for a treat. I felt guilty having one of his favourite meals and him missing out ;D
-
Looks Delish Judy
-
today roast beef summer salad.
doctor will be happy :)
-
Geoff is tucking into his chop as we speak LOL. I let him have it on one condition, that he takes small bites and doesn't put the whole lot in his mouth at once. He was so keen to have it that he promised he would take it easy. Just got caught by the RN but she just laughed thank goodness.
-
glad Geoff enjoyed it Judy
-
You are always so thoughtful for others Judy. :-*
glad Geoff got to enjoy his favorite food. :)

It sounded a wonderful treat for Geoff Judy :D :D

-
sometimes simple is good Judy :)
-
Lunch today, will take a couple of drumsticks in for Geoff later.
-
I had a ham, cheese and tomato toasted sandwich. :)

Did Geoff enjoy the drumsticks Judy ;D
I love a toasted sandwhich Astarra :D

He certainly did Denise.

A pot pie from the freezer today, stock building up again.

We ate at the Hindu Temple. We had marsala dosa and a plain dosa and I can't remember what the little rice cake thingys are called but they were nice with the sauces.

we had bacon and egg toasted sandwiches. :)

DH made Pumpkin soup while I was out shopping, just had a bowl of that and an egg sandwich.
Been sorting out stuff for Op shops this morning, can feel a nap coming on.

I made a Mediterranean fried Cauli for lunch, low carb.(http://tapatalk.imageshack.com/v2/15/01/05/21843eb1e1680a1e8df028bbbf5c3c96.jpg)
-
That looks really good Bedlam - would you be able to share the recipe?
-
Yum Denise.
-
Oh goodness Mich, no recipe - I buy 2 Cauliflower when I go grocery shopping and wash and rice them ( 1/2 fill thermie then reverse sp 5 for 5 sec or so until it resembles rice) then I fill a zip lock back with raw Cauli . Fits in the fridge easier this way. So for lunch I put some olive oil in my wok heated, poured in about 4 cups of cauliflower stirred on high heat for 2 or 3 minutes then I added a slotted spoonful of semi sundried tomatoes, some AF capsicum and some olives. Stirred this around until well combined and heated through. Turned the head off and added about 1/3 cup of pumpkin seed, sunflower seed, slivered almonds and hemp seeds. Every time it us different depending on what I have. We really enjoy this cold as well so I cooked enough for my DD's to have some when they got home.
-
I'm sure everyone has seen these on Facebook and Pinterest, the girls lunches all ready to grab and go.(http://tapatalk.imageshack.com/v2/15/01/06/cae9682553ca1ecfeabf5e2ff9236a16.jpg)
They are suppose to last well for 5 days, you need to be particular with the order they are packed in. Dressing on the bottom up to delicate leaves at top. Both girls said they were yum today.
I bought 12 quart jars in Big W, cost $45.00 but if it keeps salad fresh and us on track for lunches, I think it is worth it.
-
No I haven't seen this Denise,so thank you :-*
-
Tip them into a bowl at lunch time and enjoy. Lots of ideas on Pinterest. It will be our Sunday job for the summer, shop, chop and pack ready for the week.
-
I had an Israeli Cous Cous, roast veggie and goat's cheese salad. It was very tasty.
-
great idea Bedlam,

Bedlam, I like the sound of this. Do you use a ⅓ cup each of the seeds, or a combination to make up ⅓ please?
-
I just shake some in to be honest JulieO , what ever seems right. Because we are following a LCHF and eat a lot of vegetarian I need to add seeds for fat and protien. The cauliflower is a great base then add whatever flavour extras you enjoy.
-
Thanks Bedlam, will give it a go soon. :)
-
Great idea Denise.
-
Thanks Denise. :D
-
English muffins, ham, poached egg and hollandaise. Tried a new way to poach the eggs. Heated 2lt of water to 70c then added eggs in their shells into rice basket and cooked 10 mins 70c speed 3. Crack eggs and they slide out as poached. Very nice but needed a few minutes more as they were straight out of fridge. Less messy method than EDC way.

Yummy lunch Kimmy.Great tip on cooking poached eggs in the TM.Thank you :-*
-
SC beef stew & pasta.
-
My usual, some protein, salad and a couple of slices of bread.
-
Day 2 tomato soup and 3 strawberries smeared with 1 teaspoon of A B Sauce, ( 36 calories for strawberries and dip )
-
Great idea Bedlam, what else do you put in the jars?
-
This week we have a Mexican theme, spicy chicken and beef taco. These need a little perfecting as they were a little "juicy" but salad fresh and very tasty.
A friend saw an idea were you put a broth concentrate in with finey chopped veg then just before lunch add boiling water, will investigate for winter if my girls are still into them.(http://tapatalk.imageshack.com/v2/15/01/13/37b7fea145c2464429ea64ebbc17b2f3.jpg)
Ofcourse ours were made with quorn.
-
I made a chicken salad wrap...
-
2 art vitas with Avo, sardines and tomato, and a glass of milk.
-
Courgette Soup.
(http://i950.photobucket.com/albums/ad348/Cornish_cream/79d64032ee8ee221bef67eaf75c93f05.jpg)
-
They look really good Bedlam. I haven't used quorn products before are they vegetarian or vegan? I have used TVP as a substitute for mince and it was fine.
-
It manufactured from a "mushroom like" substance but has egg white in the products so not suitable for vegan. They taste ok and great for meat substitute for fussy vego DD.
-
Thanks Denise. Would be good to have in the freezer for a busy day or when you just can't be bothered. Maybe I'll have to have a cooking day to stock the freezer with vegan meals. :)
-
I made soup.After the disastrous Noodle Soup I made Tomato and Red Pepper Soup (http://www.recipecommunity.com.au/soups-recipes/red-pepper-and-tomato-soup/17514) which is/ was one of the recipes from the UK demo.
Always nice and very easy to make.I used a carton of tomato passata as I had run out of tinned tomatoes.
(http://i950.photobucket.com/albums/ad348/Cornish_cream/b1b17033f4d51bd4cfa0c4d6f6a1e8a2.jpg)
-
Yum, I love soup.
-
I whipped up a batch of Carrot and Cumin soup (http://www.forumthermomix.com/index.php?topic=5709.0).I had toast with my bowlful.
-
Pan grilled Salmon for lunch with salad a veggie fritters. Followed by Coconut Sorbet.
CC like the look of the tomato soup. Might make that for dinner. Thanks for the link.
-
Astarra's go to to bread rolls.
-
Today I made a quick recipe from the "WW 2 day fast" book, called 'Pumpkin & corn quesadilla with fresh tomato salsa'. Really enjoyed it. :D
(http://i260.photobucket.com/albums/ii26/ragdoll128/Diet%20meals/IMG_7451_zpsde5619f2.jpg) (http://s260.photobucket.com/user/ragdoll128/media/Diet%20meals/IMG_7451_zpsde5619f2.jpg.html)
-
That looks really nice Julie, I know you love your wraps, what type do you use? There are so many out there these days I get confused standing in front of them trying to make up my mind ;D
-
Judy, for normal salad wraps I use Mountain bread. Used to use wholemeal but haven't seen that anywhere for a while, so have been using Rye.
For the quesadilla I used a tortilla (store bought). :D
-
JulieO - here's what they have available now . . .
http://www.mountainbread.com.au/breads/products.aspx
-
I made Nori rolls
and
Rice paper rolls :)
-
I had my everyday salad, tin of tuna and a slice of bread.
-
Thanks Julie.
-
JulieO - here's what they have available now . . .
http://www.mountainbread.com.au/breads/products.aspx
Thanks Goldfish, it looks like they no longer make the wholemeal one, I wonder why ???
I will have a look at the others and check out their calorie content so I'll be aware of that. I know the Rye is 69, so will see what the others are, thanks for that. :-*
-
Day 2, Cauliflower soup and fresh pineapple.
Julie, that looks very nice. Will check it out. Thanks for the photo.
-
DH and I made a couple of salads for lunch for a few days. Coleslaw, Bean Salad, and fresh Bean sSalad.
-
Day 2, Cauliflower soup and fresh pineapple.
Julie, that looks very nice. Will check it out. Thanks for the photo.
I used a normal tortilla as that was all I could get that day. I found the correct ones yesterday and they are smaller which will not make them look so flat when filled I would think. :)
-
Today I made a quick recipe from the "WW 2 day fast" book, called 'Pumpkin & corn quesadilla with fresh tomato salsa'. Really enjoyed it. :D

This looked so nice I made it for tea using a Mission lite wrap. I added a spring onion to the mixture and only the tiniest pinch of chilli flakes but my goodness, it packed a punch and I'd leave it out completely next time. I really enjoyed it thanks Julie.
-
That looks brilliant Judy. A nice change for lunch I thought. I will be checking out more of the recipes from that book. :D
-
Thanks Julie. I'll be googling more quesadilla recipes now to use up the rest of that packet of wraps I found in the freezer.
-
I've never really taken to wraps. I guess I should try harder. ;D
-
I did try harder cookie and I am with you! I do sometimes use them instead of lasagna sheets.
Gert
-
I'm not a wrap girl either. Having said that I've never toasted them - Julie and Judy's look very yummy. :)
-
To be honest I wasn't a wrap person either but toasted, well that's a different story. Better than a toasted sandwich in my opinion.
-
Leek and Potato soup with a bread roll.
-
Pan fried dukkah crumbed chicken tenderloins with peas, cauli/macaroni cheese and pureed carrot (latter 2 items from the freezer).
-
It looks lovely. Do you have another meal in the evening Judy, or just something light?
-
I have a snack for tea or leftovers cookie. Tonight 3 leftover chicken wings, a banana and a piece of Xmas cake ;D
-
Banana pancakes with maple syrup.
-
From the freezer - lamb shank with vegies.
-
We had shepherd's pie. :)
-
From the freezer - Corn, onion & roasted red capsicum pizza with a freshly made zucchini salad. Dessert was a Kiwi coconut cream tart.
-
Salmon salad with an air fried apple peeler potato. 8 mins 180o, the kids would love them.
-
Fantastic looking lunches Judy.
-
Thanks cookie.
-
Yesterday's lunch - Spinach & bacon frittata and crispy potato skins.
-
Ocean trout, spinach & bacon frittata & salad.
-
Too busy with my sewing to bother about lunch and DH didn't have breakfast until it was morning tea time; we seem to be a mixed up little family. Had better go and cook dinner now.
-
Very nice lunches Judy ;D
-
Thanks CC, I'm having exactly the same tomorrow as the trout was too big for me for 1 meal.
-
i have been having salads and lots of avos :)
-
Haven't done much cooking for a week, been either eating out of the freezer or going out for lunch. I had a special lunch today because it's Chookie's birthday ;D
I made a batch of Skinnymixer's creamy garlic sauce (http://skinnymixers.com.au/2015/01/skinnymixers-creamy-garlic-sauce/), had large frozen prawns and rice in the freezer so voila, the best garlic prawns I've ever had. Not sure how many people the sauce was supposed to stretch to but I was a greedy girl and ate the lot. I almost stopped halfway but it was too nice. This would be great over a surf 'n turf meal.
-
Did you do the crispy potato skins in the airfryer Judy?
-
No because I added them to the oven whilst the frittata was cooking Michele. Once I removed the frittata I just turned the temperature up to crisp the potato skins. If I just wanted to just do the skins as an accompaniment for a meal, I would use the a/f though.
-
Thanks Judy - makes sense. I really want to love my airfryer but it's not happening. I'm going to make dessert in it tomorrow night and if that takes the same amount of time as my toaster oven then it's on its way to one of kid's homes. I've used it a bit too much to send it back now.
-
Yum Judy, inspiration for my dinner.
-
Good recommendation for the garlic sauce Judy. I will try that one. :D
-
I rarely make lunch unless we are having visitors. However I did today as there were the 3 of us to eat it. I did the Vegie soup from the TM5 chip and Maddy's Cheese and Bacon rolls.
(http://tapatalk.imageshack.com/v2/15/04/04/11255c8fa3963d210c887bb9b5712f62.jpg)(http://tapatalk.imageshack.com/v2/15/04/04/457011c9dd0223adcaf9fecc4b05e1f1.jpg)
-
Lovely Cookie, looks delicious.
Today DH has gone to the Crows game, so I snuck out at had Maccas for lunch. Don't tell him.
I enjoyed every disgusting mouthful of it!
-
I can understand that Katie. On Saturday night DD said she would take us out to dinner and we didn't have to dress up. We could even select what we wanted. We ended up at the local Maccas. They had the new thing where you can order whatever you like on your burger. I had a brioche roll, with Beetroot, tomato, guacamole, Swiss cheese, lettuce, aioli, and I can't remember what else. I thoroughly enjoyed it. It was delivered to us on a plank. All very posh for Maccas.
-
I saw they had that at our Maccas too Cookie.
-
Naughty Katie LOL
-
A great lunch Cookie.
My DH would have joined you at Macca's Katie. :D He loves the place too ;)
-
We had a lamb roast with potatoes and pumpkin, steamed broccoli, corn cobs and carrots, fried bacon,onion and mushroom, and gravy :)
-
Love it Katie.
We had cheese and bacon rolls too cookie. Yours look lovely.
-
It was obviously a Cheese and Bacon roll day. A ;D
-
We had sausage rolls in gf pastry today (cooked at home then eaten at the park.) :P
-
It was obviously a Cheese and Bacon roll day. A ;D
Sure was. Plenty leftover for lunch today too.

I bought myself a Veggetti spiral maker recently and used it for the first time today. The other brand of spiral makers I bought before Christmas ended up going to each of the DDs.
For lunch today I made hash browns from the recipe book, so very tasty but potato isn't the easiest thing to spiral in this gadget. I'm sure in the more expensive models it probably works better. Will try some of the zucchini recipes, I think they will be easier although I don't expect them to taste as good as the potato does.
-
My DH loves all spuds Judy and would love these too ;)
-
I made this recipe for Chilli Cheese Omelette (http://www.bbcgoodfood.com/recipes/2973/chilli-cheese-omelette) for lunch today, will never make a plain old omelette again as I really enjoyed it. I used a 17cm frying pan and you certainly have to have everything chopped, beaten etc, plate prepared and be ready as it is a very quick recipe. I did some steps in the TMX but chopped the herbs etc by hand. All the prep work could all be done in the Thermomix though.
-
Your omelette looks delicious Judy.
There are some nice recipes on that site. I have the Homemade Apple & Cinnamon Cake from there in the oven at the moment.
-
Yummy omelette Judy. :)
-
Looks delicious Judy. 8)
-
Thanks girls, I'll certainly be making it again.
-
Thanks Judy. The omelette looks delicious. I do so love BBC Good food site and magazine.
-
Looks lovely Judy. I like the look of this recipe. Thanks for posting the link. :)
-
GS requested this for his birthday lunch.
BBQ steak, smashed potatoes, cauli & broccoli in cheese sauce, carrots & peas. Birthday cake for dessert. He went home happy. :)
-
We went to a friend's place for a bbq roast today, for their little girl's third birthday. ;D
-
Steamed vegies and savoury mince.
-
A lovely healthy lunch Judy.
-
minestrone soup is cooking :)

-
dagwood dogs, only every couple of years at the show.. not very good.... :(
-
Pulled beef roll and gravy for DH and Tenina's potato, leek and sage soup for me.
-
Looks similar to my DH lunch Mich, he had a left over burger patty and caramelised onion in a Turkish roll. We both had Winter Vegetable Soup from Pg86 My Way if Cooking. We love it!
I don't often use that book, but that soup is a definately winner.
-
I don't have that book but the soup sounds really good. It's been very cold here the last couple of days and soup warms you up fast.

Pulled beef looks delicious mich.
Out for lunch to a local winery today. Mussels in a Napoli sauce. I wore white and can say no stains!
-
Tuscan bean soup. Yay, I managed to post the photo the right way around!
-
looks lovely JD. I like the brothy type soups the best
-
Looks nice Judy, glad you've mastered the photos on your iPad.
-
Great soup,great photo posting Judy :)
-
Well done Judy. You will have to teach me at FF.

After Chookie mentioned this morning that this (http://www.recipetineats.com/chinese-beef-with-honey-and-black-pepper-sauce/) sauce recipe would be similar to a lamb cutlets meal they had at a restaurant I tried it for lunch today as I had the chops already thawed. I also had non-fried rice in the freezer and some bok choy to use up. It's the best meal I've cooked for myself for ages, the sauce would be useful for many purposes - it was lovely in the rice, would be great with stir fried vegies and could be used with any meat/chicken stir fry or noodle dishes. Thanks Chookie, it was delicious. I made the sauce in the TMX.
-
It looks a delicious meal Judy :)
-
It was Denise and I know Geoff would have loved it too. I'll have to cook extra next time and take a couple into him. There's more in the freezer from a bulk pack I bought at Costco some time ago.

Brunch - A Michael Moore recipe from his Blood Sugar Recipe Book. I was going to pass this recipe book on and was looking through it and found several recipes I want to try.
These are stone ground muesli hot cakes. They were delicious. DH was very happy. Also had some strawberries that needed eating so made poached strawberries to serve and natural yogurt.
-
They look delicious Mich.
-
Delicious Michelle 8)
-
Thanks JD & CC. Glad I looked through this book before deciding to give it away. I didn't know Michael Moore was a diabetic. Just some great low sugar, low carb recipes that don't have a gazillion hard to find ingredients. ;D
-
I walked up to the village near my work place to get lunch, usually get inclined towards Thai, but today bought a slice of nice vegetable quiche and salad from a lovely little bar :)
-
Mum didn't feel like eating her main for lunch so she sent staff over to where I was trying to get Geoff to eat something to ask if I would like it. You don't have to ask me twice and I really enjoyed the flathead fillets, chips and salad.
-
That sounds a nice treat for you Judy :D
How is Geoff these days?
-
He's doing really well thanks astarra, as cheeky as ever these days.
-
Judy, give Geoff a hug from us.
This massive chook just fitted into the Thermo steamer. I used the yum Cha class recipe. Be warned the rice completely fills the basket when cooked.
-
nibbles, sparkling, and peppermint choc ice creams for lunch :)
-
A late luch today at Harry's Cafe de Wheels. I thought it fitting that after DH becoming an Aussie that he celebrated with a pie floater.
-
Congratulations to your DH on becoming an Australian citizen.
I had a flat tyre and instead of waiting at the service station went across the road to Grill'd and had the most scrumptious Zucchini chips. Does anybody have a good recipe for this? It was coated in what seemed like "salt and pepper" batter and fried. I would, of course, use an air fryer for this.
-
Made corn fritters , mixed in TMX andcooked in non stick pan, then using my special batter, Banana fritters. Avo, Tom and onion salad and topped some of the fritters with smoked salmon dip.
-
Kids had toasted sandwiches today,
I had a chicken salad :)
-
All those lunches sound so lovely. I agree about DH having a pie floater Mich.
-
Having a Roast vegetable salad with couscous and Halloumi, perfect for this hottt weather :)
-
Tinned Red Salmon and lettuce on fresh bread roll.
-
chocolate slice I made. yum :D
-
I made the kids this nacho recipe for lunch today http://www.recipetineats.com/ripper-beef-nachos/ with the addition of some beans as they are Mexican food lovers and apparently you can't have nachos without beans!
It makes heaps and they loved it. I imagine they will be taking the leftovers home.
-
Judy, sounds delicious.
Making on stove top, Spanish Chicken and Rice. Enough for 2 main meals.
-
We had smoked salmon salad for lunch today - and the kids surprised me by eating it with no complaints - (lettuce & tomato are the main things they usually complain about!!) I had steamed some sausages for them but they are still sitting in the rice basket in the kitchen!!! ;D
-
I was running late to visit DH & Mum today so I just grabbed a roll and put vegemite on it to eat whilst Geoff ate his lunch. Will have something more substantial for tea tonight.
-
Today's weather was just right for soup so I made some Make and Go Soup (http://www.forumthermomix.com/index.php?board=4.0) from Slice of Health. Quick and easy and very nice.
-
I took leftover herb and garlic pull apart and leftover hot cross buns with us on our outing to the zoo today. This was our lunch.
-
We had brought KFC today - and it was yuck :-\
-
Yesterday I bought a burger from McDonald's, and it made me sick. Not the first time, I don't know why I ever bother. Every so often I do it again and regret it.
-
This morning I made another recipe from the Salads in a Jar book to have over 2 days. This one called; 'Roast carrot & white bean hummus'.
A bunch of trimmed baby carrots, red capsicum and fresh chilli are roasted in a little olive oil with toasted, smashed cumin seeds.
After roasting the skin is peeled from the capsicum.
The hummus is made using cannellini beans, lemon juice, little olive oil, Greek yoghurt, tahini and honey and is the base of the meal.
Baby spinach leaves tops the hummus, then the roasted veg and finished with a sprinkling of coriander leaves and Nigella seeds. I absolutely loved this and look forward to my other serve tomorrow.
Am making MB's chicken & sweetcorn soup for dinner. ;D

So colourful Julie.

JulieO which Salad in a Jar cook book are you using?
The salad look and sound amazing

Thank you Judy :D

Thanks JulieO!
-
Julie, that looks soooo good. Thanks for the book reference.
-
You're welcome ;D It's a great little book. :D
-
Once more I love the look of your salad. I have salad every day, but the same ideas. The lovely jars make it look even better. I didn't go to the shop that sold them a couple of weeks ago. I must try and get there.
-
Thanks Cookie. :D
I really love this little book, so many tasty combinations and I agree the jars make them more appealing. Will be making lots from it for sure. :)
-
Your lunches always look so mouth watering Julie.
-
The salad looks delicious Julie. I love the sound of the white bean hummus. The jars are darling too.
-
Thank you mab and Mcmich. :D

I made this simple and tasty 'vegetable noodle miso soup' today for lunch. Vegetable stock, fresh ginger and miso was the base with spiralized zucchini & carrots, along with edamame beans was all that was in it. I have made a note to snip the strands of the veg next time before cooking to make it easier to eat with a spoon. ;D
Not the best photo because of the dappled sunlight.

It looks very tasty Julie. I love edamame beans.
-
Oh yum Julie.Your soup looks delicious 8)
-
I agree about snipping zoodles Julie, impossible to eat ladylike otherwise ;D
-
You're right there Judy, I ended up cutting them with a sharp knife, much easier to eat ;D
Thanks Cookie and Cornish. :D
-
Julie, looks delicious. I often use kitchen scissors to snip pasta that is too long.
-
Yum Julie, your soup looks delicious.

Super loaf Chookie 8)

The vegie noodle soup and bread look very delicious.

We had late morning coffee and taste tested the Caramel nut slice from Recipetineats Blog. This has to be lunch. Very sweet, easy to make, fresh nuts essential. I chopped the nuts a little.
Soup for Dinner.

Wonderful food Chookie 8)

It certainly looks appetising Chookie. Lovely bright colours.
-
Yum Chookie.
-
A nice lunch Chookie. For convenience sake I've been making assorted meat/relish rolls on a Sunday, enough to last me the week. Then I just grab one out of the freezer each morning to take with me when I visit Mum and Geoff.
-
Leek & Potato soup with toasted SD bread.
-
I had pizza pockets and chicken nuggets that I'd made, same as I put in my daughters' lunch boxes, and quick and easy to eat.

That's a good idea Judy.
When we lived in Broome (well before it was developed) DH would make himself a month's worth of polony and sauce sandwiches when fresh polony came into town. We lived about 60 yards from the school but we still ate lunch in the staffroom! Couldn't miss out on any gossip.
-
Very good idea Judy. I think I will do that for the days that I'm called into work on short notice.
-
You would find it very useful Michele. I do turkey/cranberry sauce, silverside/beetroot relish or ham/cheese (not keen on mustard & ham sandwiches).
-
Lamb shank and barley soup.
-
Chicken, mushroom and leek pie with mashed potato top. Cooked in pie maker.
-
Tomato soup and Cauliflower,garlic & melted cheese bread sticks.

It looks very tasty Margaret.

Mmm, it does. The bread sticks sound interesting Margaret.

A lamb roast dinner on the Weber today - was very yum! with BBQ potatoes, pumpkin and onion, and TM gravy + steamed veg (TM)

-

Freshly caught calamari with salad.

Dosen't look very pretty but flavour wise was great.
-
I had homemade chicken nuggets and salad with miss3.5 :)

Mushroom soup that I converted from WW Soup book.

Large salad from garden with AF roasted Capsicum and pumpkin with small tin of tuna.

Tasty lunches Astarra and Chookie :)

Have made Lentil and Coriander soup. The coriander has gone wild in veggie garden. I freeze it in a paper bag. Following Nigella instructions. Indian food lovers will like this. Will try and post.
Finding soup is one of the easiest ways to get my veggies.
Have posted the Cream of Mushroom Soup. First recipe I have posted in months. Feels good.
-
Brown rice salad for me after just finishing mowing the lawns. (http://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20161117/d2acd2f645ff41f620f23e2ac648e265.jpg)

Yesterday it was a cheese platter picnic lunch.
-
My kind of lunch Michelle. ;)
-
Pumpkin soup and leftover chicken salad. Slice of Olive Bread.
-
The striped cheese looks interesting Michele, not seem one like that before. I love a cheese platter, especially those my DD puts on for visitors before a meal. I nibble so much that I could skip the meal.
-
I love olive bread Chookie. I make Danni Valent's from her first book.
The striped cheese was just from Aldi. 3 types of cheddar, it was nice bit all tasted a bit the same.
-
Tilba cheese do a lovely 'striped' cheese. They make several flavours. South Cape also do them. I prefer Tilba but we can only buy the South Cape over here.

Homemade gf sausage and bacon rolls, with homemade tomato sauce :)

We're having visitors for lunch at the nursing home today but being a public holiday the cafe won't be open so we're all taking our own lunch. I thought I'd made a fun lunch for DH as he prefers finger food over anything else and it will be a change from what's on the menu today. I did a terrible job of the mice but it will give him a laugh.
-
The mice are very cute, Judy. Gold star in my opinion ;)
-
Thanks Marina. I held the container out in front of Mum to show her the mice and she went to grab a prawn - tunnel vision, she saw the prawns first and wanted one LOL. How could DH refuse his MIL even though she had crumbed calamari, chips & salad on her plate and he isn't allowed to have them.
-
Oh poor Geoff. His lunch looks lovely Judy. I'm sure you enjoyed preparing it for him.
-
Yes I did cookie but all plans to make a plateful of mice for our Probus Club birthday went out the door as they are not easy to make.
-
Lovely lunch box Judy,the mice are very cute. I might steal your idea to have fun making them with GS.
-
I'm sure GS would love that Denise. I found them on the internet somewhere ages ago.
-
Judy, Ral and I loved the mice. Like CC, think I will pinch your idea as we always have lots of eggs and the GC love them.
-
The mice are so cute, JD :)
-
I remember now where I saw them, Bedlam posted a link on FB ages ago. They put mine to shame as I never was that talented in the presentation stakes. Your grand-children or children will all probably do a better job than me.
-
Cute mice Judy. :)
-
Mothers Day lunch today. Cooked by me. Roast lamb with all the trimmings. Fruit salad and ice cream. Lazy sort of lunch as I want to spend time in veggie patch while it is not raining.
-
A perfect Mothers' Day lunch.
-
A lovely menu for Mothers Day Chookie.
-
All enjoyed, nearly all of a very large Cauliflower Cheese consumed.
Left overs for Cottage pie today.
-
I cooked a mothers day lunch yesterday too..... roast lamb, fried potatoes, whole roasted sweet potatoes, zucchini slice, corn cobs, peas, dinner rolls, gravy and coleslaw :)
today we just had toasted cheese sandwiches

Just made minestrone soup at work for lunch :)
