Most definitely. I like the things I have made from the Budget Busters book.
May all dairy items in your fridge be of questionable vintage.

I think I might have to make this now too. It is a good wee book that I should use more often!

I would like to try this, need to cook something for tomorrow morning. Can anyone comment does this taste OK cold? Or is it best eaten hot?

This looks nice, would someone be able to tell me if the Budget Busters booklet is the same as Cooking on a Budget booklet please?

Thanks Jamberie, I checked the Thermomix site and saw the Cooking on a Budget booklet.   Finally found the index to that and it appears to be the same.

This tart was very nice cold. It was lovely and spicy, I used some fresh nutmeg grated in as well. Cut the sugar back to about a quarter, and added 60g nuts to the base.

 It was still quite sweet and everyone said they enjoyed it. I took note of previous posters and sliced the apple.
Oh, and it was GF, used quinoa flakes instead of flour. No one realised it was low sugar and GF  ;D
