What are you been cooking today

[Halex]

I have a lemon pudding in a pudding bowl in the slow cooker. Never done this before, its from a book that I borrowed from the library.

If its any good will post it  as I mixed it in TM.

Welcome to Adelaide Deedub!
In an effort to use up some of the food in the house, and because the kids and their friends demolished my biscuit supply, I did some baking. I made steamed blackberry puddings in the PC for dessert, using up some frozen blackberries. I then made a batch of my raspberry chickpea brownies in my food processor ( luckily I hadn't disposed of it), using up a tin of chickpeas and the last of the frozen raspberries. While the food processor was still dirty, I mixed up a batch of chocolate ripple biscuits. They didn't ripple as much this time, but they still taste good, and the recipe makes plenty.

Ohhhh ES, they look sooooooo good

Why did you use the food processor ES - is the TC still in being repaired?

ES could I use one of my 5 cans of chick peas and my box of frozen cherries for the brownies? Is the recipe on here?

Yes, my TC has only been gone a week, and I was told that it would take two weeks.
Gert, I think that the brownies would work with cherries. I haven't got around to posting it on here yet, but I've posted it on Taste http://www.taste.com.au/kitchen/recipes/almost+virtuous+raspberry+brownies,18725

I'm getting in early and posting what I'm planning on cooking tomorrow in hope that my posting it, in my mind I'm committing to it because I haven't done much cooking lately with my assignment being done and DS's multiple hospital appointments.

I'm going to make the sourdough from For Food's Sake. I also want to make the Lemon Tart, but I don't know if I will - I'm not sure what I'm going to do with it when I make it so I need to determine that first. I need to make some cupcakes, too. Probably the banana & chocolate ones because they were just so yummy. But I also want to take DS to the library tomorrow morning now that I know there's one relatively close by where we can borrow books (I thought our only library was the state library, which is beautiful, but you can't borrow anything from it) so I'm not entirely sure the lemon tart will happen.

Cherry Brownies would be lovely! I'm not a big cherry fan, but I love them in things.

Sometimes when I look in the supermarket I want to buy things that can be taken into an office for morning tea, or used as a takeaway meal or given to a homeless person. Hard to cross all boundaries - does anyone else have this probem and how do you get around it?

How amazing will have to try the chickpea brownie when home.
Probably got a tin lurking in the larder. Better use it before Gert sees it.

I did put frozen cherries in the  bottom of a chocolate saucy pudding recently and it was yummy.

When I see tins of soup or bread rolls or breakfast cereals or those liquid breakfasts like Up'n'Go heavily reduced in price, I always wonder why the supermarket can't spare a few trolley-loads to take to the charity shops or soup kitchens for homeless people. The supermarkets are raking it in so why can't they spare a couple hundred $$ in heavily reduced stock to feed someone who really needs it? I just curse the rich people and donate to the nearest charity tin CP.

4 weeks, not looking forward to it way too many guests
