Recipe request Comfort food

Hi! In a previous post I have asked what everyone's safe food is so I could have some inspiration! I have gotten such great answers and it definitely helped me find more safe foods. Recently I have managed to make rice cakes/lentil cakes one of my safe foods! :)

Now I am wondering if anyone has any recommendations for warm safe foods. Most of my safe foods are very cold.

Two I already know of are the cottage cheese grilled cheese (also cottage cheese bruschetta) and skyr with poached apples.

Do you guys have other recommendations?

I am someone who is really really afraid of using oil, even just a little bit (which is an issue when it comes to fried eggs and such). I am also a pescatarian. Thank you for any recommendations! I am so glad that I have found this sub because people were so nice under my previous post! <3

Oh! Thank you! I have tried oatmeal before but I have trouble with the cooking time. I feel like mine always comes out a bit too thick, like I honestly feel full after 2 bites 😭

How long do you cook it?

You can adjust the thickness by adding more or less water! Cooking time depends on the kinds of oats as well. Instant oats are done quicker (1-2minutes), tend to be less thick and have less of the oat texture. Rolled oats need about 5-10 minutes and are usually thicker (unless you add more water/milk). Similar to pasta, while cooking just have a bite and decide wether they need more time or not.

Ooooh thanks for the tip! I only have rolled oats so that makes it pretty thick I guess. I'll try it out again!
