Meg’s Easy Sausage Rolls

I have always made these sausage rolls but had to mix the sausage meat by hand…….ewwwww!  Not my favorite job!  But this time I thought I would save time and get the TMX to do the hard work for me.  These sausage rolls are fool proof (this fool can make them), and you can “hide” […]

Poppyseed and Lemon Biscuits with Lemon Sugar

These little babies are a Donna Hay creation and I have done the conversion for TMX.  They looked great in her picture……..and then I made them in the Thermomix, and now I can confirm – They are GREAT!
