    Vanilla almond milk instead of water, cocoa powder, cinnamon, stevia and mash a sliced up banana into oatmeal..

    Sweet oatmeal - little bit of nutmeg, a lot a bit of cinnamon, some brown sugar, + fruit of your choice. I prefer bananas or apples.

    Game changer.... savory Oatmeal...... - add some vegetables while boiling the oatmeal or sauté them first, maybe some Parmesan cheese, + top with a fried or poached egg.

    put into an ovenproof bowl (in order)
    1/2 -11/2 cup frozen blueberries (thawed)
    1/2 cup oats
    1 teaspoon - 1 tablespoon real maple syrup drizzled over top
    bake @ 350 until bubbling ~20-45 minutes

    cool slightly or cool the refrigerated for cold
    top w/ 1/2 cup yogurt w/ 1 teaspoon real vanilla stirred in

    ****I make up a big batch then cook 12 1/2 cup mini bowls at one time.
    To me it like eating blueberry cobbler, I do the same w/apples and add a little cinnamon
    YUM!
    I hope this helps!

    you can toast your oats in a pan (or the over) to give them a better taste, then mix w/melted nut butter and spread in a pan to cool, cut into a cookie/bar
    I sometimes add nuts, dried fruit or chocolate chips to mine

    then make a drink w/ yogurt

    1/2 c yogurt
    1/2-1 cup frozen fruit
    1/4-1/2 c nut milk
    blend & drink

    Frozen fruit; blueberries, strawberries. Dried fruit; raisins, currants, cranberries.
    Sweeteners: agave nectar, maple syrup, brown sugar
    Spices: nutmeg, chocolate powder, protein powder, vanilla, cinnamon

    You might try mixing regular yogurt with dry oatmeal in a mason jar and let it soak overnight. Refrigerator or overnight oats.

    I make mine with unsweeted almond milk, little filtered water, spices like garlic/southwest/Asian/or bacon n chive with an overeasy egg on top. Maybe add some sliced morning sausage.

    For sweet I cook apple slices or banana on a little olive oil and cinnamon until they are mushy, add almond milk/water/oats and cook.

    If you want to go a different route, portable oatmeal protein bars. I usually make a batch of these each week.

    Pumpkin Banana Apple Oatmeal Protein Bars

    Wet Ingredients:
    • 2 - 3 ripe (cheetah spotted) bananas
    • 4 large eggs
    • 1 1/2 cups milk
    • 1/4 cup plain yogurt
    • 1/3 cup unsweetened applesauce
    • 1 cup pureed pumpkin
    • 1 tsp vanilla

    Dry Ingredients:
    • 2 cups old fashioned oats (don't use the quick oats)
    • 1/4 - 1/2 cup brown sugar (or whatever sweetener you like)
    • 2 - 4 tbs vanilla protein powder (optional)
    • 2 tbs ground flax seed
    • 1 tsp baking powder
    • 1 tsp apple pie or pumpkin spice
    • 1/4 tsp ground ginger

    Add Ons (Add whatever you like. I used raisins and walnuts this time.):
    • 1/2 cup raisins
    • 1/2 cup chopped walnuts (pecans are good too)

    Directions:
    1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
    2. In a large bowl, mix together the dry ingredients and in another bow mix the wet ingredients.
    3. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until mixed well.
    4. Stir in the add-ons.
    5. Spray a 9 x 11 baking dish and pour the batter into the dish.
    6. Bake on the middle rack in the oven for 50 minutes.
    7. Remove from oven and let cool completely.
    8. Cut into 8 large meal-size bars (about 300 cals each) or 16 snack size bars.
    9. Wrap each bar in plastic wrap to have grab-and-go bars.
    10. Store in the refrigerator. The bars are good cold out of the fridge, at room temperature, or warmed up.

    I add chocolate protein powder, low fat peanut butter, cinnamon and syrup with no added sugar.
    It tastes like chocolate peanut butter balls.
