Go to poorly food?

[whoami24601]

I'm poorly with a stomach bug and in bed but I'm really hungry. I can't decide what I fancy though! Tell me your go to food that always makes you feel better when you're ill...

Mine is more for a cold/sore throat than gut problems but it's hot mashed potato with a poached or soft boiled egg on top.
See also - cream of tomato soup with a spoonful of mash in it.
In your position I'd probably try some packet chicken noodle soup. Hot and nourishing but light.
(very easy to make if you have some chicken stock-pot capsules , just add water and some small pasta shapes, or break spaghetti into very short lengths and simmer it in the stock.)

Toast with butter and maybe a little jam. Or soft boiled egg and some toast.

Knorr packet chicken noodle soup

Poached egg on toast with butter.

Tea - never coffee and I drink lots of coffee!

Roast chicken and then chicken noodle soup.

DD has had an awful virus and been really poorly. After being awake virtually constantly since Thursday (worrying about her 40 degree temperature and setting my alarm every three hours to check on her/give meds) I am coming down with it myself.

The only thing I did yesterday was make a roast chicken dinner. Virtually the only thing I have done today is make chicken noodle soup with the carcass.

Heinz mushroom soup. Macaroni cheese.

Banana sliced on cheap white bread as a sandwich. It's gentle on the tummy but full of vitamins from the banana, or Heinz tomato soup.

I didn't feel well today, think the curry last night upset my stomach

Finally felt hungry and the only thing i could face was spaghetti and a plain jar of sauce and some parmesan on top.

Poached chicken and rice in vegetable stock

Marmite on toast

Rice pudding, cold from the tin with a spoon. Only time I ever eat it.

Scrambled eggs, toast, soup, pasta

Soup.
Toast.
Diet Coke.
Satsumas.

spaghetti with loads of garlic and chilli flakes, and maybe cheese but if not, plenty of salt. then a whole net bag of oranges! always sorts me out when the appetite has returned...

Salt and vinger crisps, 7up and plain crackers. Basically salty carbs.

Macaroni cheese....which I'm making now and I feel cold and horrible. I tend to chuck in some veg too, so I dont feel do bad having it!

Tinned peaches are my go to poorly food.

Too bad*

Toast and marmite for sickness, mashed potato (ready made) with some cheese stirred in otherwise......

Tomato,or oxtail soup.and a ham sandwich with lots of mustard on it.

Hot Ribena
Rocket lollies
Heinz tomato soup

Chicken and rice - very lightly boiled with onions, carrots and potatoes. Lots of black pepper. It's real invalid food but a variation on the theme of Jewish chicken soup I guess

Biscuits, crackers, toast, potato waffles/smiles, pasta with stock, salt and pepper, pot noodle

Chicken soup. It's been my saviour this week after being ill.

Cream of tomato soup, soft white buttered bread, grated cheddar

Heinz tomato soup.
