Hi All,
Just thoght I'd let you know I made those delicious thai chicken balls which Pyretta posted a little while back, but I used Carnation light and creamy coconut flavour instead of coconut milk - worked an absolute treat!! Saved a bit on fat and Kj - I still have to be careful...trying to shift the last few Kg!!!
HUGS,

Ohhh yum, thanks Pyretta. I love sweet potato and pumpkin soup, but usually only have it when I'm out, just make plain pumpkin at home. Will try that this weekend as its definitely soup weather in Melbourne.
Is that simmer for 1/2 hour, or longer? THe cut and paste did not work too well methinks.
Cheers
Sue |

I made an awesome stew/casserole the other day:
1 can of dynamite stagg chilli beans
1 400g can of diced tomatoes
4 carrots
2 capsicum
1 zuchini
half a cup of corn kernals (omit if your a bandster)
1 parsnip
1 turnip
1kg of diced lean beef (I bought steak at I think the casserole meat is too fatty)
1 litre of beef stock
sprinkle of parsley flakes or pulp
1 diced onion
tbls of crushed garlic
pepper to taste
throw the meat in raw, cover in stock add everything else and stir maybe twice on a low setting on your slow cooker, I used gravy flour to thicken it at the end and served it with mashed spud.
Great the second time round an freezes well without the potato, also nice on a baked spud with cheese and sourcream.

Linda, you could use the labne as a dip, add some french onion soup mix and pop it in the fridge for an hour and voila...yummy dip, I sometimes add a little milk to to make it runnier.
Great with corianer and lime sakatas...yummy |

Thanks Karen for your wishes. I like your description of the 'doo'.
Now Linda, obviously the labne isn't as big a hit in your house as it is in mine lol. So funny imagining Alan cursing his sandwiches every day!

Hi Jan, I am putting the labne in Alans sandwichs instead of marg. I palmed some off on my neighbour and there is still a lot left. I might buy a cauli today and make some soup and use some in that. Thanks for the idea.

and for your nibblies, warm cauliflower soup served in glass shooter glasses with some smoked paprika & garlic oil and croutes with the labne to eat/sip is delish and gorgeous- add some crisp fried slices of chorizo, and we'd be at some fancy doooo!
good luck for the last day, hope there huge flowers, tears and proper champagne

OMG I'd be in heaven!! Cant wait to try it!

I know I bog on about my cauliflower soup but I really believe it's such a good thing to have in the fridge when the hungries strike . It takes the same ammount of effort as making as a packet of 2 minute noodles I reckon lol.
1 Lt Chicken Stock.
1 cauli - cut into big bits
1 onion - roughly chopped.
Chuck those 3 things plus some pepper in a pot with a lid and bring to boil. Simmer 20 mins and zap the hell out of it with your stick blender. I add a pinch of nutmeg.
It's delish and low in fat and calories, also very low carb. Pyretta and Linda's recipe has a cheese melted into it. I don't bother with that because it would be so so sO yummy I couldn't stop eating it and I would explode my band LOL.
