We outgrew the dairy allergy but can have it twice a week.

As a kid, I would make chocolate pudding so that it was really thick. Have
to do the cooked kind to get that. I don't normally like pudding as is. I
would take a package that serves 4 and cook it down to 2 servings. I would
then cool it and add canned pears. My family thought it was disgusting.

Since we have pear trees, I have tried pears in a variety of recipes.
Mostly I used them like apples, but we just didn't like the end result. I
did mix some with apples and we made what Angela calls papplesauce. It was
okay. But applesauce is better. And before we knew of her wheat allergy, I
made bread with them. It was okay too, but you couldn't really taste the
pears.
