Pudding..what do you give your children?

[maidamess]

I have just smeared one digestive with Nutella, and one with ice cream and sandwiched them together.

Desperate measures for a family that needs to go food shopping.

What do you give your kids for 'afters?'

BTW my trademarked Nutgestive was delicious.

Mmmmm that sounds lush....

Chocolate mousse or home made cake

Our meals are mostly puddingless

Yoghourt
Fruit
Trifle - home made
a square or three of CDM
ice cream

nothing only on a special occastion

fruit, yoghurt or occasionally icecream and fruit. sometimes I make a crumble or microwaved steam pud (home made), but this is rare.

DS usually has yoghurt and fruit. Ice cream occasionally. Sometimes fruit and custard. He had pancakes today.

He's not keen on 'proper' puds, the little freakoid.

Sounds yum.
We have the usual things-
yoghurt
fruit jelly
fromage frais
rice pudding
fruit
cake
if we've been baking, whatever we made
fruit pie
stewed fruit & custard
ice cream
strudel

mainly fruit based, as you can see!

chocolate mousse, yoghurt, biscuit, bit of cake. Ususal boring stuff really

i love to bake, so we always have a pud.

today is chocolate cupcakes with chocolate frosting.

i also made no bake cookies as a snack.

or we have rice pudding with jam, a pie, a fruit cobbler or shortbread or biscuits.

in summer it's jelly and ice cream or Jell-O puddings/custards from the US.

rice pud or yoghurt if they are really lucky i might have ice cream in but usually there dad eats this before they get the chance

expat please come and live with me.

I'll make you nutella smeared on a digestive.

i do like nutella in a toastie with brown bread, but that's more of a picnic snack.

DH makes ice cream in our ice cream maker in summer and jelly is dead easy.

so is making cupcakes!

for cobblers, you can cheat by using Jus-Roll pastry and canned fruit.

Mmmm expat, will you do me the honour of becoming my wife?

homemade:-
fruit crumble
muffins
parkin
pancakes
flapjacks
fruit (fresh or tinned)
fruit bars
yoghurts
jelly
icecream
ice lollies (more frequently in the Summer)
baked bananas
baked apples
brownies
malt loaf

mmm, nutgestive sounds wonderful - ds wouldn't thank me for it...
he has fruit in fruit juice mostly with extra chopped up fruits added and sometimes jelly, sometimes a chocolate fromage frais

I make a fair effort with the main course but the puddings always seem to be fruit or yoghurt.

My children are revolting. (In both senses)

ice lollies are easy - just freeze chocolate milk in a lolly mould.

or smoothie mix.

DD isn't a big fan of proper puddings and she doesn't like ice cream or ice lollies at all. So, she will have some fruit followed by a mini size bar of chocolate.

yoghurt usually
or custard & banana (or raisins)
or rice pudding

Oh dear pregnant lady alert- you are generating a Nutgestive craving. Poor Dh is going to be sent on yet another food mission!

Nutgestives are so much better when one is spread with Nutella and the other with crunchy peanut butter). Rich teas work too!

Yorkie you are thinking of the new 'PeaNutgestives'.

I prefer the classic 'Nutgestive'. I'm thinking of bringing out a range of mini Nutgestives for packed lunches.

ooh I might buy!

I like the sound of the peanutgestive....

DD had nowt but plain greek yog and fresh fruit til she was about 2 and grew out of her wheat intolerance. Then the floodgates opened....

I bake a lot so if she has room for pud (she's quite good about telling me she's had enough to eat and doesn't want a pud) it's usually a little rachel/lazytown yoghurt (no sugar) or a small slice of LDC/cupcake/gingerbread man/brownie/choc cake etc etc. She doesn't like my choc chip banana bread but otherwise has eaten the lot. Doesn't like jelly either, weird child.

Or a scoop of home-made ice cream. She's gone off milk as a drink or on flakes entirely, so I've been using the resulting milk glut (I'm loathe to cancel the milkman in case she comes back to it) to make ice cream, which she adores. Her faves so far are strawberry, mint choc chip and mango ripple (didn't have enough mango to make proper mango icecream so I cheated!)

fruit then small chocolate treat
