^How do we download a whole thread?^

I've only just tried this but it may only download the one page you're on, not the whole thread.

Thanks Callistemon. I think maybe saving the link is better as it is updated.

It helps, too, if you customise the thread so you get 100 posts on a page (Customise at the top of the thread)

I'm on a tablet so I can only tell you what I do on this device.
At the end of the title bar, ie where it says gransnet.com/forums/food etc is a star then a downwards arrow.
If I click on the ☆ it is saved to favourites, if I click on the downwards arrow ⬇️ it downloads it.
(arrow is black btw)

That's how I did it too Callistemon. It downloaded the whole thread but then I realised that it won't update as the thread gets more posts added, so I'll just keep on downloading every so often

I only found the recipe about a month ago May7 and have made them twice but they disappeared too quickly!

Callistemon fork biscuits recipe was my first domestic science lesson 1969. Been making them ever since

'Nice' cream

Slice a couple of bananas (don't need to be fresh, can be very overripe as long as they're not brown!).
Open freeze them.
Once frozen, whizz them up in a food processor, adding a little milk if they're too stiff.
Eat immediately, or return to the freezer for later.

Variation:
Add other frozen fruit - a particular favourite is frozen raspberries, but you can use any frozen fruit - even frozen tinned fruit (in fruit juice) will work.

A healthy substitute for ice-cream!

Yes, callistmon that’s a better idea. I have downloaded now.

I've never done it before but it worked!

Now, what to make first

Simple favorite in Southwest USA: Burrito Bowl, Individual Size.
Cook a pot of rice.
Heat desired amount of black beans in separate pan.
For each individual serving bowl, layer cooked rice, black beans, shredded cheddar, then additional toppings (chopped tomatoes, sliced black olives, sliced avocado, chopped bell peppers etc.)
Alone or combo over all, as desired: drizzle of olive oil, red or green salsa, cotija dressing (cilantro), dab of sour cream

I copied and pasted the link to a memo.

Easy-peasy corned beef hash: (to serve 2) I small tin corned beef, 1 small tin baked beans, 1 tin Heinz mulligatawny soup, 1 onion. Garlic and mild curry powder. Peel onion, cut in half and slice thinly across, then just once the other way (makes 1/4 sections). Add to a hot frying pan in a little oil. When starting to brown, add a teaspoon garlic and tablespoon curry powder, mix together and chuck in the baked beans. Stir until blended. Add Mulligatawny soup through a sieve and chuck the rubbish they add to it in the bin. stir together until well blended. Add cubed corned beef at the last moment so that it keeps its shape.

Absolutely dishy with rice and takes exactly as long to make as rice does to cook (i,e 20-25 mins). Alternitavely, add to a pile of boiled spuds.
