Looks great Maddie will have to add it to my list of things to try
-
That's a nice, quick meal maddy - I love avocado but DH doesn't, wonder if he would notice it in there if I mashed his :-))
-
The green might give it away Judy :D
-
yum love avocado... :)
-
Maddy, looks great. Will try. Thanks.

Hi, does anyone have any ideas on what would replace the job of the bacon which is vegetarian? This looks great, but DD1 is having a go at being veggie at the moment so I`m trying to get a vegetarian hat on.

Caroline are you just looking for the flavour of bacon. If you are, in Dani's Book 'In The Mix' is a recipe for Virtual Bacon Dust from George Calombaris which is just brown sugar, sesame seeds and dashi powder.

HI there I am new to the forum and have ordered a TM which should be here at the end of the week.
I thought this recipe looked delicious and wondered if it would be easy enough for my first go at the TM.
Any thoughts would be appreciated ;D

Hi auds, welcome to the forum. maddy's recipes are easy to follow so you should have no trouble with this dish. Hopefully you are having a delivery demo with the machine and will get to use it with your consultant before tackling anything on your own. Just make sure you have all the ingredients you need at hand and read the instructions carefully, perhaps read them twice as we all make mistakes by rushing. You will need to make the vegetable stock concentrate for this recipe so perhaps you can organise for that to be part of your delivery demo. There are recipes on the forum for that as you won't have any books until you receive the TMX. Here's (http://www.forumthermomix.com/index.php?topic=196.0) one VSC recipe and here's (http://www.forumthermomix.com/index.php?topic=836.0) another so that you can get the ingredients in. Let us know how you get on.

Hya Judy.... thanks for your response. I dont think I am getting a deliverydemo as the consultant asked me if I wanted it delivered directly to me at home and I said yes.
Iam sure its trial and error so if I do what you said and read everything twice hopefully I should be ok. Cant wait to get it!
-
Hopefully they will run through it with you, and possibly make something.
Maddy that recipe looks delicious. The mob don't eat avocado but they can go without or I may copy Judy and mash some in. ;)
