Welcome!

I must admit, when I saw the 'Juicy' part of your forum name, I was a little worried. We've had a bit of trouble with a member with a similar name.
A great cook is one who can rustle up a fabulous family meal with some freezer burnt chops, wilted carrots, sprouting potatoes and cabbage that's gone brown on the cut edges.

What a friendly bunch you all are ~ lovely to meet you all :D

Sorry to hear there's been some other 'Juicy' causing trouble, that's no good, and I assure you it's not me as I'm quite allergic to drama lol ..

Just to update what I've been making these last couple of days, after Tuesday's Risotto, I made the 2nd batch of Vegetarian Sausage Rolls, and then for my 'try something new each day challenge' I did quirkycooking's Cashew Honey Vanilla Bean Custard http://quirkycooking.blogspot.com.au/2012/02/cashew-honey-vanilla-bean-custard.html which I served with some stewed apple & lemon rind ..


For a dairy free custard this really rocked! However, and possibly due of the honey I used, I found it needed just a little extra sweetening .. So I chopped up a banana and mixed it in with the apple & custard and that did the trick nicely  ;)

On the menu tonight is Chilli Con Carne  from What Caroline Cooked http://whatcarolinecooked.blogspot.com.au/2012/06/chilli-con-carne.html, with Rice, Kumera & Brussel Sprouts - the veggies seem a bit of an odd mix for a chili, but they need to be used up ..

And I'm also going to make a batch of Bron's Spanish Vegetable Stock Concentrate http://www.forumthermomix.com/index.php?topic=836.0 this afternoon as I'm nearly out of the EDC one and I want to compare the flavour  .. Actually I think I'll go do that now  ;D

Gorgeous photo! I love the idea of your 'try something new each day' challenge.

I adore Quirky Jo's Cashew Cream. I sweeten it with maple syrup. Yumm!
