    thank you for these ideas. For a person like me for whom smoothie automatically means some sort of fruit and nut and hence mucho mega calories!!! these are useful guidelines.

    a bulgur brown, upma. i picked up bulgur brown thinking it was our wheat rava by mistake or maybe it was intentional.. it was in the freezer for so long, and i have reduced gluten in my diet for sometime now..

    made a upma for the family, texture was a little different, but blended well as a upma.. i would think a bisebele bath, or kitchdi would be more nice, as it will absorb and blend more as such..
