    What is semolina pudding?

    @sugarfreesquirrel

    There's more info here under Dishes > Sweet: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Semolina
    It's typically semolina boiled in milk and sweetened.

    I vary my foods with the seasons--I like seasonal fresh for fruits and vegetables, and everything else changes too.

    The only constant year after year and day after day is Earl Grey tea by Twinnings with fresh lemon juice, for breakfast.

    Yum, I love easy food....mashed banana and rolled oats are one of mine, also delicious baked, or microwaved.
    I'm going hard out on rice, peanut butter, and a vege oxo cube, at the moment, seems to stop me from snacking, and is inexpensive, and tasty.

    Is this all together? I'm pretty intrigued by that........I think I need more info.

    Hi... Just bananas and rolled oats together for one recipe (no other ingredients), and the other one, I mix the oxo cube and peanut butter with boiling water before mixing with the cooked rice.

    Does it count if you're a creature of habit?

    Banana
    Greek yogurt/cottage cheese/protein powder mixture
    Whipped cream cheese and sliced turkey on a coco lite pop cake
    Various cookies and chocolate
    Oatmeal

    What is a coco lite pop cake? I know you're as fond of the kitchen as I am, so I need to know if I'm missing out on something quick and easy B)

    I don't really have any "must" foods in particular other than my morning coffee while I watch the sunrise while walking the dog. Other than that, I try to get in the recommended amounts of fruits and veg, but that doesn't always happen and the types of fruit and veg are variable and seasonal. I also try to eat fish at least 3x per week.

    Basically a delivery system for delicious toppings. :)

    Like a rice cake but smoother, bigger, and not as strofoamy.

    Also tortilla-sized (the taco size), and 20 calories per each. Not much flavor of its own - "delivery mechanism" is a good description. They get soggy easily, but are good for "spread and eat" stuff. I used to eat them for breakfast as a peanut butter delivery mechanism.

    I was going to say COFFEE until I remembered that I skipped it 3 times this week for one reason or another. It's not a food, but I've never skipped on having water.

    The only must on my list is coffee - it greatly increases the life span of people who interact with me in the morning.

    Exactly this

    There are several foods I eat at least 2-3 times per week, but the only one daily is a tall glass of skim milk. Seventeen grams of protein for 170 calories, equally suited for any meal of the day (breakfast, lunch, dinner, snack, bedtime). I think I can count on one hand with fingers left over the number of days over the last decade I've not had at least 1 glass, and often multiple glasses.

    Strofoamy? What in the heck were my fingers thinking?

    They DO get soggy easily. Also one of the reasons I like them. For....reasons. 😁

    Morning peanut butter was my first thought! I’ll have to look for these next time I shop!

    It's a cliche but I need an apple every day or I don't feel right.

    milk... ok, it's not a "food" as such, but for all of my life that I can remember, cereal (whether shreddies, muesli, porrige oats, weetabix etc) with milk every morning for breakfast is definitely a must. (except the few days on holiday in the summer where I had a full english, (well, not quite full, just egg, bacon, sausages, mushrooms - yum!)

    a custard cream with my breakfast coffee was also a must but I've weaned myself off the breakfast custard cream "calories and unnecessary sugar" this year.
    If I could afford them, mushrooms everyday would be a must!
    ...and probably, if I could afford it (money and calories) AND had the time to cook it... full english breakfast every day lol
