Evening snack time!

I'm into Jane10's 8:16 and now waiting for a big puddle and transformation into a stick insect. No evening snacks. Tap water ok? No idea.

Just talked to DD2 who had a cheese fondue for Sunday night snack!

Love cheese pudding - and so do DGC.

I have never eaten in the evening. Evening meal around 6.00pm is the last food I eat each evening. Nothing virtuous about it. My parents never ate in the evening after the evening meal so I never experienced it as a child so never started doing it as an adult.

Sounds much nicer than my Mum's version of cheese pudding, which wasn't baked, and the eggs weren't separated, It was just a sort of scrambled eggs + cheese + breadcrumbs, which we ate on toast. Not something I've ever bothered to try to make for myself.

Thanks kitty, I'll give that a go.

This is similar to the one I make

www.deliciousmagazine.co.uk/recipes/savoury-cheese-pudding/

It's breadcrumbs, soaked in warm milk, grated cheese, little mustard, paprika, bit of nutmeg, egg yolks, all stirred together - then the egg whites beaten until fluffy and gently stirred in, all tipped into a buttered deepish pyrex dish and then baked.

I serve it with small roast potatoes, roasted while the pudding cooks, and peas.

I first had it made by DH's Mum

Cheese pudding? Never heard of that but it sounds right up my street. Any recipe available?

We need a recipe for cheese pudding ( never heard of it, but if it has cheese in it, bound to be good!)

Oh yes, ‘night starvation’ NellyMoser a clever ad.
Being too empty is as bad ( almost) as a too full tum at night,
Regular small meals are better ( to avoid indigestion) but giving up coffee straight after dinner helps with that too.

Ooooh, I'd forgotten cheese pudding - must do it for dinner one day next week.

Are you all worried about "night starvation" ? Anyone remember that advert? I think it was Horlicks. What ever I guess it was before the advertising standards watchdogs were around.

Hot chocolate made with milk , last evening I chanced having a crumpet but generally have to be careful what I eat after 9 because of indigestion .

I've never had cheese pudding but it sounds wonderful!

Don't have anything that early, but can't resist a bowl of cereal about now. Lidl's fruit and nut muesli is my favourite, or Weetabix with warm milk and a light sprinkling of drinking chocolate powder. Got to go......

Well, it’s that time again....I have just had some leftover roast chicken, shredded up on a piece of buttered toast, with a few cherry tomatoes cut up on top of them and a few grains of rock salt.Yum.

when we were small and even as teenagers we always had a cooked supper sometimes a cheese pudding sometimes scrambled eggs or a roll with hot roast on it(if it was leftover) my dad used to make potato fritters with fried eggs though he was chief sweet maker ,with tablet,coconut ice and candy balls.or puff candy being Friday night favourites.We went through a phase of cooking suppers a few years ago and piled on the pounds,now I sometimes have a bowl of porridge and my OH likes some toasted cheese .

I love a slice of toasted M&S super-seeded bread with butter and honey - yum, can't wait!

Because I am too fat, I usually have an orange in the evening - fewer calories than chocolate.
I really try not to have malted milk/coca or anything else. Apart from anything else, if I have a late drink, I need to get up in the night; I sleep badly enough without any assistance!

I have an individual packet of popcorn, which is gluten free, and a cup of camomile tea for my supper. This sounds very worthy and frugal, but I really look forward to it.
DH and I have stopped buying packets of honey-coated peanuts, as we can eat a packet between us in 10 minutes, and they have so many calories.

Not sure of all the details Smithy but remember when I heard it/read it thinking I'll use semi for tea and full fat for my cereals. I am sure if you google it you will find out all you wish to know. Good Luck!

After I have taken all my nighttime drugs, but before I take my sleeping pill, I have 3 chocolate digestives. Every night! Never more nor less...maybe that's why I don't lose weight?

Just say no

Sometimes a few nuts or a milky drink but I don't keep biscuits in the house any more.

Oh! never heard that about full fat and PD, Danni. Does that mean a lot of full fat like butter or just small amounts?

I don't always have an evening snack but if I do I'll have cereal with full fat milk (only had semi for years but read we all need some full fat to avoid parkinson's disease), dark chocolate or popcorn.

Yes MawBroon it's got to be ice cold full fat milk on cereal I agree, that's the only milk I have during the course of the day so don't feel guilty.
9pm is chocolate time in our house, we have some bad habits, must do better
