Thermomix Meals: tomato

Quite a lot of tmx cooking today.

Breakfast was pancakes with the batter made in the tmx.

Lunch was chicken and sweetcorn soup - the stock was made in the tmx yesterday, then grated ginger and garlic, added, stock, tin of creamed corn and cooked 10 mins, then added a small tin of sweetcorn kernals, shredded cooked chicken and pepper and cooked another 10 mins.

Really yummy, super quick and easy soup.

Made ganache for truffles.

Dinner was pizza.

Made two lots of pizza dough (dinner tonight and also for calzones for school/work lunches)

Then made a tomato sauce (garlic, herbs, tin of tomatoes)

Also made a garlic butter sauce (garlic, herbs, butter, olive oil) as the kids love a garlic pizza to start with.

Also made a lot of spreadable butter for the fridge (see recipe earlier as per Quirky Jo - but 100g butter, 100g rice bran oil, 100g filtered water, blended.)

We have had a bumper crop of tomatoes so far this year. Have frozen some in 400g lots for use in cooking but decided today to make tomato sauce/ketchup - very exciting!!!

Super easy to do in the Thermomix and really tasty. Very impressed.

Kids all had a taste and loved it. Will have to have some sausages or something now so we can use it, lol.

Then made this vanilla slice http://www.forumthermomix.com/index.php?topic=4599.0 substituting corn flour for the custard powder, and adding a little more vanilla. I did a half amount of the vanilla filling and it's really lovely. Girls had to have some for dessert even though it wasn't quite set yet.

Dinner was chicken in yoghurt. I added some mushrooms for the last 10 mins of cooking (just to make my rather grumpy 3 year old happy) and served with carrots and rice.

Once again a hit.

What is Thermomix Meals

Hi,

I started Thermomix meals as a daily diary of my use of my Thermomix and an easy resource to link or publish recipes.

When I was researching (for a long time!) the Thermomix the one thing I was unable to find was resources that showed how often and how it was used in a normal home. Lots of great blogs with yummy recipes I was dying to try but I was still worried I'd get one and then only use it for the honeymoon period.

So Thermomix Meals was born.

Mostly this is a daily diary of my Thermomix uses, but all recipes are linked or published at some point. Where possible I do try to link or give an indication of where to find them (recipe book, thermomix forum, my blog, other blog) but esp with the often repeated recipes this isn't always possible within time restraints.

Try searching for the title with recipe as well should bring up recipes I have created (though I'm afraid some are fairly vague as that's how I cook).

If there is anything you particularly want to know about just leave a message and let me know. I'm sure I can find the original source (recipes I like I tend to print out, hence not being able to easily find the original to link to).

I hope you enjoy reading my blog and for those looking into purchasing a Thermomix you find it a useful resource.
