Using up Ready Brek...

    The Cheap Family Recipe site uses ready brek (or cheap supermarket brand) in loads of its recipes.

    Here's a link http://www.cheap-family-recipes.org.uk/index.html


    BTW how do I do a link so that instead of the site address appearing I can type in 'here' or 'cheap family recipes'?

    I vaguely remember the link box would come up with a line for the words you want to appear and another line for the address but now it just comes with a line for the address. I'm clicking on the icon in the header of the reply box (not the quick reply).

    I have been a long time lurker but my first post on the old style board.

    I have a box of normal ready brek my 11 month old wont eat (recommended in a weaning class) . Husband and I had lots of this growing up so cant face the thought of eating it but it may come to that.
    But I wondered if there was any thing I could make before I have to do this?

    thank in advance

    Is it the texture your little one doesn't like, or the taste? My DD always refused porridge when she was that age until I mashed up banana in it, and then it suddenly became her absolute favourite.

  • I think its the texture , I tried mashing banana into it but he still wont take which is odd - he likes his food.

    Could you use it instead of flour in a crumble topping?
  • Used to think all porage was the same, then had some Alldford Mill oats when very young and became hooked.

  • Try adding a spoonful of jam, honey or chocolate spread and mix it in well.
