    I make a batch of steel cut oats every week in my slow cooker ....add ins include apples & raisins or dried cranberries. I then package them in individual servings & into the freezer they go!

    I eat oatmeal every week day, because it's an easy breakfast for me to take to work.

    I mix mine up in a cute little glass mason jar in the mornings and zap for 1.5 mins when I get to the office.
    I use 1/2 cup old fashioned oats, 3/4 almond milk, tsp of agave nectar, splash of vanilla, dash of salt, and a sprinkle of Gingerbread Cookie seasoning from Flavor God.

    I go on spurts, but when I am in my oatmeal phase, I eat them every day. I prefer to use the overnight oats method and use both quick, and thick oats with no issues. Tastes great and is an easy meal to grab on the go.

    I make steel cut oats in the slow cooker--I cup a day. It fills me up and gives me energy for running. I usually don't eat carbs at all at night, and often the oatmeal is the only whole grain based dish I have in a day.

    Just wondering do you eat a lot of oatmeal on your weight loss journey?? If so do you use old fashioned or quick oats and what do you put in it to make it taste better?

    Not a lot. Once a month maybe.
    I prefer baked oatmeal. Usually use old fashioned rolled oats.

    I believe what I use is old fashioned oatmeal, and I make porridge with equal amounts of water and whole milk. I would like to eat it more often than once every two weeks or so, but there are so many foods and I have just one tiny stomach. I think it tastes great with a pat of butter.

    Everyday! I love mine mixed in with ON casein, coconut flour, flax meal and fruit. Sometimes I will mix in peanut butter & chocolate chips.

    I like the taste of oatmeal but not the texture, so I've used it as a flour substitute for pancakes, tortillas, muffins, and other quick-breads. Now I'm expanding into yeast territory, and dragging oatmeal/flour, kicking and screaming there with me.

    Old fashioned, almond milk, chia seeds, walnuts, strawberries, blackberries or blueberries and a pinch of salt.

    Only under protest or in cookies.

    Sounds about right.

    That stuff only tastes good with a ton of sugar in it. The question "want some oatmeal with that sugar" applies in my case.

    Old fashioned, cooked with chicken broth in the microwave, and topped with a fried egg.

    His baking mix is gluten free and it's a really decent price too, and all the recipes I looked at were simple to make gluten free. I'm in big trouble. Protein is so filling for me, and protein sweets are right up my alley. The older I've gotten, the bigger my sweet tooth is.

    Banana oat muffins with frosting you say? I'm off to look those up. I love all things banana.
