Re: Making Do
Charla try fried cornmeal mush! We ate it growing up. Basically you make cornmeal hot cereal but you pour it into a loaf pan and let it cook over night. The next day it is sliceable and you just give it a quick fry in a frying pan and serve with syrup or honey or fruit.

Re: Making Do
Polenta isn’t something I’m familiar with so I googled. It’s essentially the same except polenta is made from coarser grind and takes longer to cook. It’s usually served savory. Corn meal mush is silkier, cooks quickly and is usually served as a Sweet breakfast.

Re: Making Do
I grew up calling it corn meal in Texas and could get doffrnet levels of courseness but when I moved to Vermont things were labeled as corn flour, a fine grind, and polenta as course grind.

Re: Making Do
I was wondering about using spaghetti and baked beans together...googled and there were actual recipes. So we did that the other day!

Re: Making Do
I have my kids do cereal in yogurt rather than milk. They throw away or spill a lot of cereal milk but will finish up yogurt. I also add MCT oil and probiotic powder and sometimes chia seeds or hemp hearts as a boost.
When my kids leave fruit half-eaten, I trim and freeze for a smoothie the next day. Sprinkles or chocolate chips are great to get buy-in on toast with PB, oatmeal, etc. My husband will pretty much eat any leftovers if I put them on rice and melt cheese on top. Or in a calzone. My kids are still pretty little and I can sometimes get them to try something new if we "happen" to see a show or read a book where characters eat something. |

Re: Making Do
I realised there are still parsnips in our veggie draw from the 20p Aldi deal at Christmas
So, parsnip and apple soup for lunch I can't stand parsnips but for some reason quite like parsnip and apple soup

Re: Making Do
I am just amazed but the knowledge and talent on this board. That is all I have to add to this thread.

Re: Making Do
My nephew has used the chickepea faba in cookies and they looked like a slightly different consistency and color, but they enjoyed them. He also uses it in other baking they made meringues from it by whipping it into a stiffer foam similar to egg whites.
There are some youtube videos you can watch that show you how and what the outcome is like. (We still eat a lot of eggs, but I may soon be doing the subs.) ---------- Post added at 01:58 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:55 PM ---------- For those that need a refresher on how to make their own plant based milk for baking (or if you are used to the thinner consistency, milk for your cereal) here is the link to a web page for how to make the 'milk'. In case you can't purchase any locally. https://getpocket.com/explore/item/d...r-own-oat-milk I can't post pictures here any longer, but I have a chart of egg subs.......maybe I can find a web page link with the amounts and come back and update. ---------- Post added at 02:19 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:58 PM ---------- I found a link on a webpage for the quick chart of egg substitutes. You will have to scroll a little bit to reach the chart. (I don't know how to 'fix' that) Just remember in baking.......subbing 2 eggs seems to work okay. So if you are trying to bake a 3 egg cake or more, it isn't going to work and will be flat. Think a flat Angel Food Cake. It still will be slightly different, but it is workable for casseroles and biscuit type things. https://www.eatbydate.com/egg-substitutions/ |

Re: Making Do
In baked goods such as muffins and cakes, seltzer, soda, or any bubbly drink can sub for eggs, too.
