Can Cream-of-Wheat be used for something other than breakfast?

[Anau]

Are there recipes that use Cream of Wheat for farina as an ingredient?

[Andy M.]

You could substitute it for polenta in recipes. You could also serve it in place of grits.

I make dumpling for soup with it.
Beat an egg, salt and pepper and add cream of wheat (or farina) until it is the consistency a little thicker than pancake batter. Drop it by a teaspoon into bubbling broth. Turn down the heat and simmer for about 10 minutes.
It will soak up a lot of broth, especially the leftovers, so have a lot of the broth for serving. You can add chopped parsley or other herbs to the mixture before you make the dumplings.

Cream of Wheat is a marketing/trade name for farina .... apparently created in the 1890's by Fred Clifford, Sr. - brother of one of the partners of the Diamond Mill of Grand Forks, North Dakota.

I Googled on Cream of Wheat and Farina recipes and found these.
