Three Kids & a Thermie - Jessica Balnaves - Thermomix Consultant

An unbiased, unaffiliated look into whether or not the Thermomix is worth the hype & its price tag! If you're feeling on the fence, have a read 😊

Here is a follow up article to ‘7 Days With A Thermomix: The Verdict Is In.’

I wanted to give an honest, non-gifted, unbiased review.

I wanted to write how to afford one, for those who are wanting to buy but put off by the big price.

Thermomix has really been a game changer for our family. I tell everyone about it and they often say I should be a consultant.

As much as I’d like the extra income of being a consultant or partnering with , I want to be a trustworthy source of information. When an item is given for free or have an affiliate link or sponsored, it can be hard to know if the item is actually good or just a way for that influencer to make money.

I don’t want to do that. We paid full price for the Thermo and our cutter. I hope that if you are thinking of buying one, articles and points of view like mine can be trusted. 🤗

I do wish we’d bought it earlier. Hindsight is a beautifully infuriating thing.

If anyone has a spare TM6 in a cupboard somewhere, I’ll happily take one off your hands.
My next article would be entitled, ‘Why have one Thermomix, when you could have two’ 😂

Start your mornings off right! Just 2 ingredients & no wasted good bits! 🍵

Do you have a juicer gathering dust in the cupboard because it's annoying to clean, it's a hassle to get it out or because it wastes so much of the fruit & veg? (Or all of the above 🙃)

I've got the solution for you! The TM7's powerful motor & bowl design means you can turn whole pieces of fruit into your morning juice - no difficult to clean parts, no wasting the fibre.

What's even better? Right now you can trade in your old juicer (or other appliance that the TM7 makes redundant) to get $150 off a new Thermomix.

Imagine having ✨️such✨️ a versatile appliance at your fingertips - you'll want to cook more because of just how easy it is! 🥰

Bit of cooking ASMR for you 😆

Cheesy Parmesan Pizza Bianca is a delicious, relatively quick side. I love the addition of grated parmesan to this, but it's equally delicious with just the garlic, Rosemary & salt.

The recipe makes enough to do 2 this size, which means you can either have enough for a crowd or pop half in the freezer to have on hand for another night (I freeze the dough, so it can be cooked fresh).

It's also a basic pizza dough recipe that can be used for a multitude of toppings - head on back through my reels & you'll see a Cinnamon scroll version using this same base recipe! 😉

Would you steam your roast chicken? 🤔 Let me know in the comments! ⬇️⬇️

For a lot of people, the thought of this is enough to turn them off the idea of roast chicken 😅

But let me let you in on some insider knowledge... many commercially cooked roast chickens are done in "combi" ovens. These will usually start off with using steam to keep the moisture in the meat, and then near the end of the cooking cycle revert to a dry heat to crisp up the exterior & create that delicious browning we all love.

This is the first time I've done a whole roast chook in my Varoma, believe it or not, but I've cooked countless ones in combi ovens in years gone by & its actually a great way to replicate this technique at home.

Let me know if you give it a try! 😊

Didn't get around to trying this one as quickly as I'd originally planned, but got there in the end!

I actually think this one was better the next day, once the flavours had more time to really infuse into the sauce. I'd probably cook uncovered for longer next time too, as my sauce didn't reduce as much as I'd have liked.

Have you tried this one yet? (Recipe at the end of the reel)

Did you know you can make your own Spreadable Butter with just 3 ingredients in only a few minutes? 🤗

Much better than the long ingredient lists on commercial margarine in my opinion! 🙃 (And also not a bad way to make Butter go a little further now it's $19/kg! 🫠)

This freezes well too apparently, but I haven't tried it as butter doesn't last long in this house!

When your 5yo shows you something your Thermomix can do that you didn't know 😅

The lid cap doubles as a stand/drip catcher for the spatula. 🤓

Am I just really behind the times on this little gem of information or am I not the only one to have learnt something new from this? 😆

Just what I'd been looking for - a new biscuit recipe to try!

This one was the Thermobliss Ginger Biscuits and they are delicious! Soft & chewy, and made with only butter & pantry staples.

These took no time at all to whip up & I'd already lost a few to sneaky fingers before I had a chance to even take the end pictures 😆

If you've got a fabulous biscuit recipe i should try next, tell me what it is in the comments! 👇🙏
