| Hi Kat If you Google Kick Start Diet you will find several versions. Here's one. http://www.coles.com.au/cmi/recipe.asp?rid=990 Leanne |

| Hi Robyn Thank you Robyn, for a few seconds you had me scratching my head because I thought you were talking about the Blinis until I realised you were referring to the beans lol. Leanne |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Linda Thanks for letting me know what they are called, I had no idea. I went to a banding doctor's Christmas party for bandsters and they were serving them there, along with soup shots lol. The soup shots were actually a great idea, they had some really lovely home made flavoured soups like Thai Coconut Pumpkin, I've since served soup shots at get-togethers and they always go over really well. They look best served in a small clear strong plastic cup or in a plastic wine glass and you just put around 100ml in each. Back to Blinis, I have Googled it and found out they are Russian Pancakes and a whole new world of recipe ideas has opened up for me. They were a great hit at lunch today and are so easy to make. Thanks again. Leanne |

| hi all does anyone have the recipe for the quick start soup... ? Kat |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Aldis sell them and they are Greek and extra large on special this week, go and stock up. Cheers, now I realise why I bought some as it triggered something in my mushed up rain, it was your post. Robyn |

| Blinis are delicious with a touch of king island sour cream and caviar. YUM!!!! I can't however eat anything doughy... not fun. Mel |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| You're an exotic chef now Leanne, they are called blinis. Linda |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| That sounds soooooooooooo good Leanne...yummm! | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Hi Amanda Yes it worked, thanks, I've just finished them in readiness for the get-together I'm having today. I'm having mini pikeletes with dill mayonaise, smoked salmon and caviar on top. Leanne |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| I always spray the pan with spray oil, I've never used butter before. So I think you're in the clear for that. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Has anyone tried when cooking Pikelets, instead of greasing the pan with butter as the recipe says greasing a non-stick pan with spray oil and does it work? Leanne |

| Hi BB I have been banded since May 14, so have just come off Mushies. This thread has recipies for all stages, Liquids, Mushies and just for normal eating. Good luck |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| What week is this for. I am looking to get my band next month | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| One nice liquid My daughter and i tried tonight, after having it in a indian restaurant the other weekend, was a mango lassie; 1 cup of mango, which you can buy tinned if no fresh 2 cups of plain yoghurt 1 cup of pineapple with the juice would make it more liquid although not meant to be in this recipe some vanilla or cardamon for flavour and whiz up in blender, i added some milk to make it a bit more of a liquid consistency, this was divine and my hubby even liked it!! I was trialling this ready for next week after my banding surgery, think it may become a fav Any way I should go back to bed, cant sleep!! Cheers all Tassie |

| Tried this one tonight .. It's very yumm and the crock pot makes the meat as soft as butter. Mushroom Casserole in the crockpot. 600g Gravy Beef or Stewing Beef 1 packet of cream of mushroom soup 1 can of sliced butter mushrooms as many fresh mushrooms as you wish to add (I added 1 large punnet of sliced mushrooms) 1 and 1/2 teaspoons sweet paprika Brown meat and then combine with the rest of the ingredients in the crock pot. Slow cook for about 8 hours. Serve with veggies, great comfort food and cheap to make. |

| Hi Leeane Just had a thought on those beans. If they are the ones I am thinking of I think the are Fava (?spelling) beans |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Hi tryingtoloseit Thanks for your feedback. Leanne |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Hi Leeanne I know exactly what you mean and this recipe is very similar. It is also similar to an Italian one I had visiting friends as a child. Depending on where you live you may find those beans in a continental deli. I havent got a snowflakes chance in hell of getting them where I live. |

| I found this one on the Novaris web site and it was such a hit at home I had to post it... I think it would also be great for the mushies stage if you wizz up the strawberries before serving.

| Hi tryingtoloseit Your recipe brings back wonderful memories of when I was Greek Island hopping and fell in love with what I call their "Baked Beans" obviously that wouldn't be the real name but I don't know what the real name of the recipe is. Would you or anyone know where I can buy the extra large beans that the Greeks use, they are about three or four times the size of a baked bean? Leanne |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Real Baked Beans (Approximately 8 bandit serves) 2 Chorizo sausages 1 onion finely chopped 1 tablespoon olive oil 1 tablespoon Balsamic Vinegar 1 can crushed tomatoes 4 tablespoons tomato paste 2 cans Canellini beans Finely chop Chorizo sausage (even if you find you cant eat it, include it in the cooking process because the flavour is very important, just pick it out later) Fry until golden brown, remove sausage and drain fat from pan Add a tablespoon of olive oil and cook onions until golden (dont burn) Return sausage to pan and add tin of tomatoes, tomato paste and beans and balsamic vinegar. Add a can of water and mix well Cook over a low heat stirring regularly until it thickens up This is so yummy. Serve with crusty bread or toast fingers for non-bandit family members. Makes a delicious brunch and also freezes very well. |
