Swiss Beef

[Snoozie]

YUMMY!!!!!

We have limited food so I left out the parsley and instead of beef stock used a tablespoon of bron's Vege concentrate stock with 500g water. Will try with less concentrate next time as it was a little salty for me. Only 30g olive oil but accidentally put about 190g rice in lol

No fresh veges at the store so that was it for our dinner and it was delicious!! Definitely adding to our meal plan and experimenting with! So easy and tasty!!!

Thanks

No worries Snoozie.  It is a great stand-by dish and is easy to adapt with whatever is in the fridge or cupboard.

We had this tonight with a side serve of mashed potato, green beans, broccoli, cauliflower and carrots.

It was delicious.

I diced 8 mushrooms into 1/4s and added them in at the last 20mins.

Will be making this one again.

  I'm so cranky. Yesterday I needed to print this recipe out for a friend so I quickly googled "swiss beef thermomix". Instead of seeing the forum and my blog links, I found a Group Leaders thermomix blog where my recipe had been copied as her own (no acknowledgement that the recipe wasn't hers or a link back to the recipe provided).  It was word for word! The blogger had even replied to a persons comment on the recipe as if it were her own.

You have every right to be cranky too Chelsea.  I think it may have been removed now, there was nothing there when I clicked onto the first one.

I am so sorry to hear of this obvious dishonesty, Chelsea - plagiarism is always a problem with students but you would expect a lot more from adults.   

[Chelsea (Thermie Groupie)]

Thanks Johnro.  It was hard to take, especially from a group leader.

I sent an email JD and asked that it be correctly acknowledged.  I think she probably thought it was best to remove it.  I also suggested that other recipes be correctly acknowledged or removed from her blog.  It makes me crabby because developing recipes and publishing them to share with others takes time and energy (as you already know JD ).  It doesn't take a lot of time or energy to copy other peoples recipes.  I modify recipes and publish them on my blog (often Chookies recipes which I love) but I always acknowledge her and provide a link back to her original recipe.

If group leaders or consultants want to have a recipe blog to encourage sales and support their customers then they need to put in the hard work and create the recipes for themselves.  I know how much work goes into maintaining a blog and how much time genuine bloggers like Quirky Jo must put into it.  This group leader should simply be providing links to her favourite recipes on her blog rather than publishing them and making them look like her own.

Now off my soapbox once again.

Clap, clap, clap from me Chelsea. Well said.

Sorry to hear that Chelsea 
I wanted to ask about the meat. What is everyone using? Actual bbqing quality steak or gravy beef?

[judydawn]

I use blade steak Meagan.

Thanks JD  this will be on the list when I get back
