    I've only recently decided to try oats again after a childhood of hating the grey glug my parents would force me to eat.
    Its not exactly the healthiest way to eat oats, but it is delicious:

    On my oats I have lashings of maple syrup and a good dollop of double cream :devil:

    I also like brown sugar with a little milk and some dried fruits like apple or some stewed berries....

    I put finely diced walnuts in just about every flavor of oatmeal I eat. And I eat it with vanilla soymilk.

    YES!

    love the FLAX seeds... with HONEY and any kind of FRUIT
    sometimes the classic maple syrup & apples
    today i had maple syrup and the last batch of my own home grown pears i froze in the fall

    lastly i never use milk with oatmeal and always prefer the slow cooked Steel Cut
    McCanns ...or PC blue menu
    flax and blueberries!

    Ditto! I always make mine with water - I find the milk way too paste-y. To each his own, I suppose!

    best tasting/easy oatmeal:

    Quaker Instant High Fiber (flavored packet, my fav is cinnamon)
    16 Ghirardelli 60% Cacao Bittersweet Chocolate Chips

    Add just enough steaming water to mix everything in a sealed container until the oats rehydrate. (5 min maybe?) Or you can nuke it for a couple minutes.

    :love: Tastes just like a chocolate no-bake cookies—and that's coming from someone who HATES oatmeal. I devour this!

    I was desperate for a snack this afternoon so I tried egg whites in my oats - Amazing!

    1/4 cup oats, rolled
    1/4 cup egg whites
    1/2 cup water
    cinnamon and pumpkin pie spice

    Cook until done, about 90 seconds in the microwave for me (yea, i'm too lazy for the stove), then I added in 1/4 cup pumpkin and topped with some walnuts. Super fluffy and delicious!

    Will definitely be doing more of this!

    Sometimes pumpkin and a banana, sometimes I put my homemade almond, hazelnut or peanut butter.
    Sometimes I make pancakes out of them for a different way of eating oatmeal.

    I use almond milk, too. I will make a patty out of it using oats, flax meal, coconut, 1/2 banana and small amount of almond milk. Pan fry and top with my nut butters. Your suppose to put it on an english muffin and make a sandwich but I skip that part.

    Theres not much I haven't put in it I guess! Dried fruit, cherry is my favorite, Jams. I've baked it, made it in the crockpot. I just can't get bored with it!

    Cookie dough (well, the oatmeal in the dough). Sounds aweful, I know, but it's the only way I can get my family to eat any grains. I'm converting them slowly. :)

    i try to eat oatmeal everyday. i put honey, cinnamon, pecans (or other type of nut for protein) & some type of fruit... usually bluberries, banana or strawberries. yum! i love it because you can add whatever you want & it's a good source of fiber.
