I love how easy and quick it is to whip up something like this easy salmon quiche in the Bellini/Thermomix. The quick chopping and mixing capabilities of these machines definitely add variation to my cooking, as I am much more willing to test out different flavour combinations. This quiche is modified from the Taste website and I have to admit I cheated and used pre-prepared pastry, but of course you can make your own if preferred.
