My wonderful Brother in law went shopping in the UK for me
So I did this:
I just used this recipe for the gingerbread dough
A whole box of angries. Yum!
Food for busy (or lazy) people who aren't afraid to play. I love my tools - use both Chefs Toolbox products and my trusty Thermomix. I am not into lots of fiddling about but am not afraid to experiment with flavour. Wherever possible I will include the Weight Watchers ProPoints for my recipes. My friends and family are my food critics. I would be thrilled if you shared what you think.

Zingy thermomix cauliflower salad
I was walking by the river tonight and I took inspiration from the 4 Blades Podcast who accompany me when I am not listening to the Verity Podcast
Verity's influence is anything but healthy - I feel inspired to make Doctor Who themed cupcakes and biscuits but first I needed dinner.
Rather than come home and make poached egg on toast for tea I put a steak in a pan and mixed me up this salad
The method is based on their Simple Summer Salads episode
Chop 60 grams of pecans at Speed 4 for 6 seconds
Set aside
Put 1/4 bunch of parsley in the bowl with 2 cloves of garlic and half a long red chilli deseeded
Chop 4 seconds Speed 10
Add 250 grams of cauliflower broken into florets, a carrot, chopped roughly, a capsicum, chopped roughly and half a red onion, peeled
Chop Speed 4 for 4 to 5 seconds
Add 1 tablespoon cider vinegar, juice of half a lemon and 100g fat free yoghurt We are loving this one from the Tamar Valley because it is delicious and reminds us of home
Mix on reverse speed 4 for 5 seconds.
Is that steak done yet?
No? It must be time for a glass of something then
