I'm unwell - what's your "sick" dish?

[CocoapuffPuff]

Just that - what do you make when your throat is sore from coughing and you're low on energy?
I've been on porridge and soup for a week....Still no appetite, which is deeply unlike me.

Mash potato. From a packet

Cheese, bean and onion toastie or egg on toast

Jacob's cream crackers and a big bottle of sparkling water.

Green soup. Stock, load of green veg inc peas, blended with stick blender. Total cold killer.

This is great if it's a cold or flu (if you have the energy to make it...but I make it in a big pot and freeze for when I'm ill)

Macaroni cheese! The only option!

Death's door.... egg-in-a-cup
Might make it..... chicken broth, chicken noodle soup, porridge
Feeing a bit better....noodles, toast with jam or honey
On the road to Recovery.....Cottage pie, minestrone

Cheese on toast
30 p noodles
Bacon Sarnie - one half of the bread dipped in bacon fat
Fried egg sarnie

Hope you feel better soon!

Custard with tinned fruit
Packet noodles

As others have said:
Heinz tomato soup
Neals Yard chicken soup
Egg on toast (weirdly)

Bacon Sarnie - one half of the bread dipped in bacon fat
I was just reading that bacon fat is a rich source of Vitamin D, so obviously massively good for you!

Egg-in-a-cup (hot hard boiled egg or two, peeled and mashed up in a warmed cup or mug, with real butter, salt and pepper to taste) served with lightly toasted thin white bread and butter. Prepared by someone other than you, it is love, comfort and healing in a simple meal.

Micro mash and bisto

The idea of someone else preparing food for me has just made me laugh which brought on a coughing fit. As if....
Seriously, dh is good for cups of tea, that's it. He's been known to wait till its clear I'm not getting out of my migraine bed to cook dinner before he scrambles himself an egg at 9pm.
I'm currently on the sofa in the blanket of doom, while he tackles tesco and I know he's hating me for it right now. He does his share of everything else but hates beyond all hatred the supermarket shop.

If there's a decent Chinese nearby, a portion of chow mein is always nice when you're feeling crap. If you can't stomach big flavours, even a plain one with just onions/beansprouts is good.

My Irish friend's recommended meal for all illnesses. With a knob of butter.

In my family, we have 'chopped up eggy in a cuppy', and it always has to be eaten from the special mug.

It's 1 or 2 soft boiled eggs taken out of their shells, with salt and pepper.

Macaroni cheese, Heinz tomato soup or a packet of ready made mashed potatoes with cheese grated into it.

Pasta with butter, grated cheese and oodles of black pepper. And with added chilli flakes if I'm bunged up.

Heinz tomato soup. It has to be Heinz.

Mashed up egg in a cup here too. Somewhere between soft and medium boiled for me, nice and hot with a ridiculous amount of butter mixed in and a touch of salt and pepper. Then served with hot buttery toast.

I think it's eggs for tea. Just managed a slice of toast without it scratching my throat and making me cough, which required hideous amounts of butter!

Cheese on toast (marmite optional) topped with a poached egg (hot sauce optional).

Rice pudding. From a tin.
