Opportunity Food

[elisem]

 At our house, Opportunity Food is defined as what you can make when you can't stand up that long today.

Currently, is Bowl o' Cronch:

take bowl
spread some nut butter on bottom/sides of bowl (note: INsides, not OUTsides) - today is peanut butter
throw some dried fruit at nut butter if you got some - today is raisins and some crystallized ginger 
put in puffed brown rice (or whatever you got)
add milk, or if no milk, a couple really big spoonfuls plain yogurt
anything else you got that seems appetizing
get big spoon
eat

I love mixing peanut butter, Grape Nuts, and honey. The only thing crunchier than Grape Nuts...is ROCKS!

Very good nourishment for a potato! P.

We do PB&J Os at our house, because then you can have more peanut butter and jelly, and less of the bread, and not worry about the PB slipping out the sides and getting your hands all goopy. My younger one likes to put milk in his too, which I think is taking it a bit far, but hey, I'm not the one eating out of his dish.

(I also make oatmeal with IKEA chicken meatballs and applesauce, which a number of my friends have stared at me in horror over.)

I like to add a big scoop of nut butter in to my cold cereal but I leave it to be kind of a lump I can break nibbles off of as I go. I also do this with my hot cereal, and PB&J oatmeal is pretty much a 4 times a week breakfast.
