Chit Chat / Something is wrong with my TM!
« on: July 12, 2011, 04:42:37 am »
I just went to make some Cydni O'Meara CADA - had a small amount of almonds, coconut and dates plus one small apple chopped into eights in the bowl.

I pressed pulse and instead of the blade spinning the machine made a whining sound and the blade did not spin, and after a second or two smoke was coming up out of the bowl.

 :o

Should I contact head office? I don't have a consultant anymore and I think my machine is just out of warranty. Has anyone else had this happen?

Recipe Requests / Muffin-like musli bars with jam filling?
« on: March 19, 2011, 09:15:56 am »
My sons really like these bars in the their lunchboxes, but I would like to stop buying them as they are full of sugar and other rubbish (the bars, not my sons!  ;) )

They have a cake or muffin like outer shell, and the inside is filled with some kind of fruit flavoured jam - often blueberry, apple or berries.

Does anyone have a comparable recipe? I would love to make these successfully myself!

Thanks.  :)

Recipe Requests / Has anyone made the short crust pastry with coconut oil instead of butter?
« on: March 19, 2011, 09:13:04 am »
When baking I usually just switch butter weight for weight with coconut oil, but I thought I'd see if anyone had tried it with the the short crust pastry before I give it a go! 

Thanks.

Chit Chat / Looking for easily transportable, kids' party recipes
« on: February 06, 2011, 07:48:21 am »
Hi everyone,

In a few week's time we are holding my son's eighth birthday party at a climbing park in a state forest. We need to bring everything from home, and take it all with us when we leave. There are no BBQs there and you're not allowed to bring anything in, either.

Would you mind sharing with me any TM recipes you think might be suitable? Everything has to be pre-prepared and transported in tupperware containers to the site.

Thanks for you ideas!

JD - When I made this soup it needed some tweaking to thicken it up. I used cashews instead of almonds and at the end of the cooking time the soup was far too thin for us.  I quickly microwaved 400g potatoes, skins and all and chopped them up and added back to the soup.  Blitzed it carefully (the bowl was very full by this time) and it thickened up nicely.  Also added a teaspoon chicken stock powder for a little more taste.  Just using 500mls water instead of 1 litre would be a far better option but the potato added something to it as well.

Introduce Yourself / Hello from Central Coast, NSW
« on: June 21, 2009, 05:54:33 am »
Hi everyone,

My name is Kath, I am a TM consultant. Some of my customers have joined here and speak very highly of this forum, so I decided to pop in! ;D

I live on the Central Coast in NSW with my three fantastic children. I homeschool them and due to some health issues I have always tried to maintain an additive-free, organic diet for all of us. Having the TM has revolutionised meal preparation in our family! It truly has changed our lives for the better.

I am so glad to be here, and look forward to participating and getting to know everyone!
