Here is another meal time post, that some hate

I often get inspiration from the posts of others.

@GardenGerty So do I.

Me either. I enjoy food posts and recipes

I may freeze some of the chili. I have it packed into containers to carry in lunch boxes.

@Fleura It also makes it easier to get ready for work in the morning.

@GardenGerty Home-made ready meals are the best!

I love my own cooking, most of the time. Hubby is a good cook as well. There is some ham salad in the fridge calling my name.

@GardenGerty I love ham salad

Tums helps that upset stomach.

I think yogurt is a good choice for you as it sounds like they have it available a lot. Of course Tums does help as well.

It was yummy.

I like being able to get some variety in there.

I have heard of the Finlander yogurt, but do not remember what it is called. I know of a store that sells Scandinavian items, maybe I could find some there. Hate perhaps is too strong a word, but others have used it to describe how they feel about meal posts and to say that they are not really discussions. I make my own yogurt, by scalding milk and adding some powdered milk and a plain commercial Greek yogurt. I pour it into canning jars, and I have put them in the crockpot, or a dehydrator, but my favorite is to put them into a "cooler chest" that is insulated and put hot water in. It becomes a nice yogurt.

@Bluedoll I buy frozen fruit, both individual kinds and mixed kinds. I then can just thaw and eat them or blend them up with the yogurt. Frozen is said to be better than fresh because it is processed locally and at the peak of freshness. There is little or no waste and it does not cost too much. No added sugar in the ones I buy.

@GardenGerty I keep buying these little containers. I like them and they are made to eat on the go too contain a little fruit. I really can't like plain yogurt that much because every time I buy it in a larger container on sale end up mixing in something like strawberry jam. We really shouldn't worry too much about what others write about what others should write. It has been a source of frustration for me because you can't please everyone and the next person thinks the best thing to write is two sentences of how to get drunk or something, anything goes. Should try your idea of preparing yogurt as it makes a lot more sense than what I'm doing. What I wish for though is a good source of fruits. Everything I seem to be getting at the store of late is sour. Even those little oranges that look so good are bitter like lemons and they say not to consume too much sugar. Those pills are really a safety precaution. Who needs to get seriously sick. It is wonderful we have them but yeah you need to get some good bacteria into you as we need that too.

I was feeling really hungry for something with cheese so this was one way to have it.

I use plain Greek yogurt as culture to make larger quantities at home.

@GardenGerty Oh for sure. We've done that. Its cool how just using a thermos can make more yogurt.

It was not something that I liked when I was younger, but things change and tastes change.

Me too

When you take antibiotics it is helpful to do something probiotic, like yogurt to maintain the healthy bacteria.

@GardenGerty never knew that. But ive hardly taken them so maybe tgats why

I top my chili with sour cream and cheddar cheese and onions.

I do too

I do to

I am certainly trying. I feel hungry all the time, that must be a good sign.

@GardenGerty happy to hear this I hope you continue to improve

@GardenGerty I believe it is a great sign

It was very easy to fix.

@GardenGerty awesome !

I am glad you got some medicine, and that you eat yogurt.

I make homemade yogurt by the half gallons. I do add frozen fruit, sometimes protein powder. I just hope the antibiotic does not hurt my stomach.

I forget how easy they are and how much I like them.

There are other probiotic foods. I make smoothies with plain yogurt for hubby all the time.

I enjoy cereal with yogurt as well.

You would really relate as I use a lot of turmeric in dishes as well.
