Teatime Today: Green Juice

It's gloriously simple to prepare juice in the Thermomix.  Today I needed some green juice. So in went into the Thermomix bowl: kale, dandelion greens, red apple, cucumber, celery and lemon juice along with a handful of ice cubes.  I blended on speed 9 for 15 seconds. Then I added room temperature water, the same quantity that I wanted to drink.  I blended the juice on speed 9 for 1-2 minutes.  And with very little effort, I strained the juice using the Thermomix basket into this glass.  Cheers! This all took 4 minutes.

Arrival of my TM5 and becoming an independent Thermomix consultant





Here it is! Our TM5! I have two workhorses side-by-side and an eager little guy:))))))
First thing made: vegetable stock paste.  All set up to make Risotto using Cook-Key

I have been a passionate Thermomix user for a decade now.  Over ten years ago, in my mother-in-law's kitchen in Chile, I met Thermomix for my first time.  In her kitchen I was introduced to this new way of approaching cooking and eating.  I genuinely couldn't grasp the menu choices and ice cream flavors she was offering to prepare.  

Finally, Thermomix is here in the US, and recently, here in Texas.  I am all smiles thinking about others discovering Thermomix.   As an independent Thermomix consultant, I will be doing cooking experiences and showing others what Thermomix is all about.  How about you bring your friends and family to your kitchen where Thermomix will delight all?  The awesome world of Thermomix awaits you.  

Imagine all the ways Thermomix will improve your life! If you look at my posts, you will see how integral Thermomix is in my life.  Can I share this joy in your home?

                     Here are some reasons the Thermomix will improve your life:
        
                                                       HEALTHY
                             Cut out preservatives, artificial flavors, sugar, allergens......
   Make condiments, dressings, meals, snacks, deserts at home instead of buying
               Positively influence the gut health of your children with a beautiful diet

                                                        SIMPLE
                                       Guided, step-by-step cooking 

                                                      CREATIVE
                                      Use your unlimited imagination 

                                                   MONEY SAVING
                          Cook more, save more and use one appliance
                         Make restaurant-quality food in your own kitchen

                                                           TIME
                      Save time, the Thermomix cooks so you don't have to  
                           Concept is to make meals faster and healthier


                                  What does the Thermomix actually do?

                                    steams, blends, whisks, emulsifies, 
                                          cooks, kneads, grinds, 
                                        weighs, mixes, chops and stirs

                                     Yes, it does all of this with precision!!!  

                    I can tell you that everything improves with this kitchen machine.
