1/2 cup old-fashioned oats, 3/4 cup water, 1/8 tsp salt in the microwave on 50% power for 6 minutes. Then I add 1/4 tsp cinnamon, 1 tsp Splenda, 1 tsp brown sugar, and 1/2 cup 1% organic milk.0

gotta try the peanut butter idea, and the pumpkin one too
often I have it with almond milk and a teaspoon of unsweetened cococut.0 -
1/2 cup Old fashioned oats-1 cup water-shake of salt. Cook 3 minutes in micro. I add half a scoop of protein powder, just a smidgen of butter, a few drops of stevia and alot of cinnamon.0

I really like the thought of pumpkin in it. Are we talking premade pumpkin pie filling, or just the canned pumpkin?? >..<
Solid pumpkin in the can. Not the pie filling! It's really amazing, my favorite breakfast in the fall!! :bigsmile:0 -
I use old fashioned organic oats; half water, half milk. Some cinnamon, 2 tbs of brown sugar, a smidge of butter, and some chopped nuts - whatever I may have on hand, and some raisins.0

canned pumpkin ftw!!0

2% milk and then a tablespoon of either:
Honey
Raspberry Jam
Bot mix in really well and so far not got bored of 'em.0 -
I'm dreadful, i make mine with semi skimmed milk and drizzle golden syrup on top0

I've actually gotten hooked on the steel cut oats b/c they seem heartier to me, plus I prefer the nutty texture. It takes a little longer (8 minutes or so) but Trader joe's has a 'quick cook' variety that takes closer to 6 minutes.
I just make it with water, then pour it into my bowl over a tablespoon of CRUNCHY peanut butter and some skim milk. I'm old fashioned, that way...thanks, Grandpa!
Sometimes, I add a bit of maple syrup, but I don't usually keep it in the house, so it's a rarity.0 -
Oatmeal in the nude is best, it's how I enjoy mine too! :laugh:
That is how I like mine...hahah...sometimes if I'm feeling crazy i add dash of cinnamon.0 -
Bumping again... I see another oatmeal post! :bigsmile:0

Ever since we were talking about this I have been craving pumpkin! I asked at the store the other day and they said that they should have some in stock soon. I will be stocking up as soon as it's on the shelves!! :bigsmile:0 -
Another good one is whole cranberries (not dried). They start bringing them out in the fall also. They are tart but soooo great in oatmeal!! :bigsmile:0

I add a scoop of protein powder, a tbsp of flaxseed meal and a tbsp of chia seeds plus skim milk. If I'm feeling sluggish I add a tbsp of bee pollen.0

I like oatmeal. And it's good for you. Somi eat alot of it. Not because unlike it so much
But because it keep me full. And I like it lol
1 Cup of uncooked "old fashion"' oatmeal don't like the instant stuff
2. Tea spoon brown surgar. Yummy yummy !!!
1 tea spoon of raisin
1/4 cup 2% milk
That's how I like it. Wish I could have 4 slices of toast with butter on it and a big glass of milk with jam on the last slice
Of toast. Lol. That's how I use to eat it. Lol0 -
With the colder weather coming on soon, it will be time to switch from cold cereal to oatmeal. My question is, how do you like your oatmeal? I cook mine with water, then add 1% milk, 1 tbsp of peanut butter and a banana. I'd like to see what others do with theirs.
Breakfast (in WI) with frozen blueberries and maple syrup. PB for filling and calories.
Lunch. Cold, or in the microwave.
Dinner.
My family traditionally made a pot for the kids in the morning and reused the leftovers for dinner by adding legumes like lentils for dinner. Legumes and grains go together to make a complete protein. So this is a wise way to get vegetable protein if you're thriftyor have 16 children with half of them working down the mine all day, or in the fields.
Try it, Legumes and Grains (e.g.Peanut Butter and Bread). It's a very popular strategy in India.
