Try this - I added it to the database this morning. My sister just started a 21 day vegan challenge and this is on the menu. This is fantastic oatmeal, is quick and easy like instant oatmeal packets, and is inexpensive.

That sounds good. I do something similar but I use no sugar added apple sauce, not apple juice, with raisins and cinnamon, and I toss it in the microwave because I'm lazy, and that way I don't have to wash the pan.

Sounds good, I will have to try it.

I eat oatmeal most days - did you know that if you just heat the water, mix it and COVER the bowl or cup, even the whole oats cooks in just about 3 minutes. My niece told me about this. It is very handy especially when you have access to a hot water dispenser!

Here's another recipe - broccoli, raisins and a small amount of walnuts, with a little coleslaw dressing. Yum!
