All ordered and waiting for delivery.

[CathieT]

Am very excited, all the paperwork is done, just waiting for the actually deliver now.  Bit embarassing that I get this excited over a machine but hey its going to change my way of life and hopefully the health and wellbeing of my family with all the wonderful things I will be cooking up!!!
 
Looking forward to my very first meal from my new Thermomix.  Any suggestions what should be my first meal that will WOW everyone!

Kind regards

Cathie

Hello and welcome,it is very exciting waiting for the arrival of your tmx
I think my first meal was Spaghetti and meatballs very easy and very yummy

Oh how exciting for you - don't be embarrased - just enjoy the anticipation.  My first meal was the Creamy Garlic Prawn Risotto in Seafood and Fish - sorry need to work out how to insert a hyperlink.  My DH who does not even know where the kitchen is (except to place dirty plates on the sink) has even made this.  Friend brought her TMX and the two DH's cooked for eight of us while we sipped champagne (and supervised).  Still my favourite standby.  I used frozen prawns which are always ready but of course fresh if available.

Hi Cathie. We all understand your excitement. Waiting is hard. Spend the time looking through the forum and deciding what you would like to cook and if necessary buying the ingredients.

Hi CathieT and welcome. A risotto would make a great first meal or soup. Happy cooking

Hello and welcome Cathie! I agree with Kimmy, a risotto is definitely a WOW meal Or an All-In-One steamed meal using the Varoma, like non-fried rice
