Multigrain peaches and cream hot cereal simply filling

This is definitely not like instant peaches and cream oatmeal it's better :) It's a stick to your ribs chewy bowl of amazing!!

I tried making this in the microwave and I would definitely make this on the stove top. You could make double or triple and put extra in individual dishes either in the fridge or freezer to heat in the microwave a different day!

I also wouldn't buy containers of the grains but go to your bulk section or health food store bulk section and buy a cup of each for a dollar or two. That will make many breakfasts.

Multigrain peaches and cream hot cereal simply filling

2 tbsp bulgur
2 tbsp pearl barley
3 tbsp old fashion rolled oats
3/4c water
1 tsp vanilla
if the brown sugar doesn't make it sweet enough add a bit of sweetener of your choice
1/2 peach chopped
1-2 tbsp fat free cream I just used 1
1/2 tbsp brown sugar 0pp

Put the bulgur, barley, oats, water, vanilla and optional sweetener in a saucepan and cook on medium heat until boiling then keep stirring until thickened. It will still be chewy but cooked. Add the peach and cook for another minute or two.

Put into bowl. Sprinkle brown sugar and pour cream on top :)

Enjoy

I also made this with a banana and a bit of maple extract :)

Chocolate peanut butter banana oatmeal pancakes

Chocolate peanut butter banana oatmeal pancakes Simply Filling +1pp for the pb2

Update: I didn't have cottage cheese and used yogurt and it worked out fine, I also increased the cocoa because I love a strong chocolate flavor. You could also use dark cocoa to do the same thing.

1/2c oats personally I count it as SF but use pp if you don't
1/2 tsp baking powder
1/4c cottage cheese
1 egg or 1/4c egg substitute or 2 egg whites
1.5 tbsp Pb2 1pp
2 tsp unsweetened cocoa 0pp
sweetener to taste I used 2 packets
Banana sliced
Sugar free pancake syrup 0pp
Skim  milk if needed

Put the oats, baking powder, cottage cheese, 1 egg, 2 tsp of cocoa powder, sweetener in a bullet or blender. Let sit for 5 minutes. If it's too thick add in a bit of skim milk.

Cook pancakes in a non stick sprayed pan and right after you've done that take a few banana slices and gently push them into the top of the pancakes.

Top with syrup and the rest of the banana :)

Creamy cauliflower or potato soup

So easy and tasty!

Creamy cauliflower soup SF add points for any additional ingredients!

1 bag of frozen cauliflower or you could use potatoes if you want probably 3 medium?
2 cups of fat free chicken broth
Salt and pepper to taste I also add garlic powder and onion
3 Tbsp fat free or ultra low fat cream cheese or light laughing cow
Green onion

My add in's today were 1 slice precooked bacon 1pp and light cheese 1pp

Simmer these until the cauliflower is tender in the chicken broth I covered with a lid but left it open a bit so it would reduce a bit of the liquid. Approximately 10 minutes after it boils. I then used a hand blender to make it smoother while leaving a few lumps :).  Then I added some ground pepper, garlic and onion powder and the cream cheese you could use laughing cow but I didn't have any.

Garnished with some green onion.

This made 3 good servings of soup.
