When it is a chilly morning or when Molly is not feeling well, this is one of her favorite comfort foods. It is also very low in phe but high in calories so it is perfect when we are trying to bring levels down. The cooking time might vary depending upon how finely ground your porridge is, so taste after a few minutes and see if there are any hard bits remaining. You can play here and add the flavors you or your loved ones like. If you have the phe to spare, add one (15mg extra) to two tablespoons (30 mg extra) of heavy cream right before serving.

Ingredients
Method
- Heat a non stick skillet over a medium heat. Add butter. Once melted, add diced apple and sauté for three minutes.
- Add ½ cup of the rice milk, coconut drink and salt to the pan and bring to a boil. Whisk in the porridge. Reduce heat and simmer, whisking occasionally, until nice and soft and thickened, about 6 minutes. Add maple syrup, cinnamon and the additional ¼ cup of rice milk if necessary for desired thickness.
Notes
You can use whatever low protein porridge you have or just grind low protein pasta in your blender until it is pulverized to almost a powder (Thanks Lynn from Cambrooke for this tip!).
