Serve with your oatmeal. So fancy and yummy. Is your curry boring? Do the same thing! Put a little cooked fruit on it for a good time.
The sugars caramelize a little and that's what this is all about. A hint of butter and caramelized fruit sugar, then the bursting freshness of fruit that's still firm at the center. Hits the spot for a sweet tooth, but no need to add granulated sugar to make it happen.
@134318c2 Lazy struggle meal version: microwave an apple, smoosh it up with some butter.
@134318c2 at the front half of my 70s, with all the meds I take, my taste has changed, and I've lost about 30 pounds in a year- my daughter (retired RN) tries to get me to eat more, drink nutritional shakes (all the packaged ones taste pretty bad to me and some have actually made me unwell). After the last try, yesterday I told her I'm going to get some malted milk powder to make my own. I love fruit and will use fresh or frozen in yogurt smoothies. I also make hand pies when I'm feeling it.
