14 days of cooking with the Thermo

I joined a group on Facebook that challenges you to cook something new with your Thermomix for 14 days. The latest challenge for 26/5 to 8/6 was…

1. – “I’ve had my tmx a yr and I still haven’t made…..” that thing everyone raves about that you keep meaning to try, something that’s so simple but you haven’t got round to it yet, that thing that’s been on the to do list for ages or something you thought you would make in the first week that you just never got round to!!!

2. – winter warmers – hearty nourishing winter meals

With that challenge I decided to make a list of things I’d like to make and thought I’d blog about it.

Yummy Chicken Pasta Lemon butter & pikelets Tomato Soup Impossible Quiche Chicken Stroganoff Raisin Bread

  • Monday 26/5 – Yummy Chicken Pasta (recipe community)
  • Tuesday 27/5 – Pikelets (EDC p57) and lemon butter (EDC p47)
  • Wednesday 28/5 – Tomato Soup (EDC p 78)
  • Thursday 29/5 – Impossible quiche (Devil of a cookbook) – first time doing quiche in thermo
  • Friday 30/5 – Chicken Stroganoff (Devil of a Cookbook) – a family favourite
  • Saturday 31/5 – Raisin bread (from Thermo Affairs)
  • Sunday 1/6 – crumpets (recipe community) – a bit of a fail, not sure what went wrong 🙁 and I forgot to take a photo

Sausage Rolls One egg meringues Apricot Balls Tacos Parmesan Garlic Bread Wheel Chicken Cashew Nut

  • Monday 2/6 – Super simple sausage rolls (recipe community)
  • Tuesday 3/6 – converted mum’s one egg meringue recipe – still working on tweaks
  • Wednesday 4/6 – Apricot Balls
  • Thursday 5/6 – taco mince (using the packet stuff)
  • Friday 6/6 – Parmesan Garlic Bread Wheel
  • Saturday 7/6 – i was out all day so didn’t make anything
  • Sunday 8/6 – Chicken Cashew Nut (EDC p111)

Overall I think it was a pretty good week. We’ve found some new recipes we’ll add to our family favourites, some that will need a bit of tweaking before we decide and a couple that won’t get made again. I’m looking forward to the next challenge 😀
