Thanks Stacelee - just made these tortillas this afternoon and had them for dinner.  Everyone loved them, and DH couldn't believe I made them, and then decided they actually tasted better than bought ones.  Definitely better value!! 

I ended up turning mine halfway through cooking as they puffed up and kept reaching the top elements. 
I kept them warm in the oven, wrapped in foil while I cooked and prepared everything else for the burritos, and they were great. 
My biggest issue was the kids - since I had to turn/remove the tortillas every minute or two, I couldn't really walk off to sort them out, so of course they decided that was the perfect time to go ballistic.  :-))

Glad they turned out Jo. Good opportunity for the kids to sort themselves out.  ;)

My two teenagers have perfect timing on when to go insane.....normally when I am way too tired to deal with the noise levels.  They very rarely fight but could both talk under water....normally at the same time when standing two inches away from me.  I am yet to convince them that they don't need to both try talking over the top of each other.

I have a good roti recipe as well that I haven't tried yet in the pizza oven and a naan recipe...I'm planning on trying both on Thursday and will post them if either work well in the oven.  I normally do the roti on the griddle and the naan in the oven (did them in our combi oven at work the other day...that was a dream...16 naans done in 5 minutes in one go...I want one for home...I made 10 trays of biscuits in one go as well...unfortunately my husband won't play nice!)

I was at house shop today buying a vase and saw the red pizza machine ,
 asked if they had the black one and she told me that she got a email  from the company about 3 weeks ago telling her that they are no longer making them .
l asked why and she said that the company had so much feedback from customers saying that they don't use the silver dish insert .
That's strange  I said we'll everyone on the thermomix forum loves them and they make so many other things in there too and l named a few
She is going to ask the rep to see if they can get me one
I just thought other people might want to know in case they were putting it off like me

Saw an ad in the paper from 'Chef's Hat' selling red pizza maker for 99.95 - says 'black one now available'. They have an online store, might be worth checking out...
Love my pizza maker  ;D

Hope they're not getting rid of the black one...although it's not available through the NZ pizza maker site, and I had to get mine from Aus!  So maybe...

Or fingers crossed it's just that we've bought up all the spare stock!  ;)

Haha! Love the new you, Jo!

stacelee, your tortilla recipe is hidden in this thread. It'd be good if it were placed in the Bread section of the forum. I only happened to check here on the off chance there was something interesting happening here!! (And there was!!)
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.

Dee dub 
l  checked out that site and the black one was $99 too and postage only $10 which is  a good price
Unfortunately for  me the ladie at house has ordered me one for $ 169  as l thought l did not want to miss out   
I might ring the company and ask  if what she tells me is true

My pic is actually DD in disguise.   :D

I made my first frittata in the machine yesterday - went down really well.  And so easy.  ;D
