THE SHOPPING THREAD :-)

Thanks for the advice Yvette.  Some of the recipes in the booklet have lots of liquid and  then cornflour to thicken.  Boring.

Just try something simple and see how it goes

Gretchen, I never brown the meat first, and just throw things in.
don't put too much liquid in..

Gert in the Non Thermomix Recipes there are several slow cooker recipes 

[BeezeeBee]

beezeebee, there are some great slow cooker sites, and a whole collection of recipes on taste.com.au

I love mine, its huge and so easy.

Thx. Will do some research one of these days. After I get a better handle on my new shiny TMX

Gert this is my favourite slow cooker meal.

I freeze the left overs and we have it stuffed into those massive pasta shells with some extra pasta sauce and covered in cheese.

I am on my third slow cooker and it's the 5 in1.  I love it because the pan has the browning feature so I do everything in the one pan now - brown, slow cooker and then reduce and thicken the sauce.  I would never buy a slow cooker without a browning feature now.

Forgot to add my shopping!

Bout this pyramid pan, supposed to help crisp food up in the oven



And a couple of these Anna Gare containers - Cookie jar, sugar jar and I am now on the lookout for the tea jar.  I also got the matching oven mitt



And a new circulon commercial frypan from Victorias basement on the weekend!

I went to the Myer stocktake sale last night. I stayed well away from the kitchen/homewares level. DH got a suit for 40 percent off & some cute high top sneakers for DD

Gert chuck it all in and give it a stir. Hey presto.

Just purchased some tickets for DS1 and I to go and see the Lion King musical in December.  😄😄😄

DS is going to be so excited when he finds out!

Gert chuck it all in and give it a stir. Hey presto.

That is what I am thinking. I bought. The Australian Woman's Weekly  Slow Cooker 3 on my iPad last night. Cost me 10 bucks and it failed to download. I am fast losing interest in the slow cooker.

Thanks snappy for the yummy recipe. I did look at the five in ones but I really wanted an oval one  and they had no  5 in 1 oval at Myer
