Okay, there was a post on here a while ago about delicious things to do to your oatmeal. I am Steel Cut Oatmeals cheerleader so, I was very interested. I just made some super delicious Almond Joy Oatmeal.
I made my steel cut oats (not the quick cook kind, although I do that on days I work) and added to them a half a serving of whole raw almonds, a tablespoon of hersheys special dark cocoa powder (unsweetened), a packte of splenda, and then layered it with organic unsweetened medium shred coconut. I've been working the kinks out of this for three days and todays was fantastic! yesterday I stirred in the cocunut and put too much cocoa and it was gummy. It was delicious!!!

(Keep in mind that 7.5 grams of that fat were from just the almonds alone....)
You could make it without the almonds and save yourself 85 calories.
