Title: New to the forum, but old to the thermie...and I've written a cookbook
Post by: LisaChaff on October 27, 2013, 08:38:57 pm
Hi everyone,
I'm Lisa, from Melbourne.
I got my thermie about 2 years ago, and love it. In fact, I rarely cook in any other way. I'm in a wheelchair, and I found that my "thermonuclear husband" has taken out all the physical tasks of cooking, and allowed me to be creative.
I've been so creative, in fact, that I've written 2 cookbooks. I noticed that some of my friends with thermomixes were not getting great use out of them, and one friend stated that the recipes used too many ingredients for a busy mum to remember to buy at the supermarket. So....I developed 2 recipe books of 5 ingredients or less.
You can download them now from www.thermocookbook.com
The first book is free
Cheers,
Lisa

Hi Lisa, thanks for saying hi officially - welcome to the forum.  Have downloaded your first book, we all like a freebie  ;D  Some nice recipes there and hopefully your friends have been encouraged by your efforts to produce recipes with only a few ingredients and are now cooking up a storm.  Being in a wheelchair, it must be so much easier and safer for you to cook using a TMX than using the stovetop - do you have it sitting on something lower than a bench top?
