Try Baked Oatmeal, I found a great recipe for it on Skinnytaste.com with bananas, nuts, and blueberries for about 200 cals. But I also make a version of it with bananas and strawberries that I love that is only 175 and soooo delicious! You can try the skinny taste recipe and change it how ever you like, adding different nuts and fruits and I think it would be delicious! :-)

Like apple cinnamon, strawberries banana, cranberries and blueberries, etc. There's sooo many combinations you can try!

Here's the link to the recipe:

i love oatmeal! Today i have it like this--> 1/3 cup oatmeal, 1/2 cup fat free milk, 1 cup water, 2 tablespoon of cinnamon, 1 tablespoon of crunchy almond butter, half a banana and personally i add 2 tablespoon of flaxseed for extra fiber. Its my favorite breakfast!!! And most importantly its super filling and nutritious!!!

Oatmeal is awesome because it's a blank canvas! I spice up my oatmeal a few different ways-

1) add a super-ripe banana you've mashed up with a fork (sometimes I'll add a drop or two of vanilla and some nutmeg)
2) chai spiced oatmeal: add some cinnamon, cardamom, nutmeg, cloves, & vanilla (cook it w/ milk for extra richness)
3) unsweetened cocoa powder
4) fresh or frozen blueberries, strawberries, or both
5) top with a little dried fruit and nuts
6) add a serving of unsweetened apple sauce (should be about 50 cal) and cinnamon
7) add a serving of toasted wheat germ for extra fiber & protein
8) Mix some protein powder w/ just enough water to dissolve and add to the oatmeal at the end

Depending on how I'm feeling, I might sweeten it with stevia or honey. I really want to try making pumpkin oatmeal sometime.

Pumpkin oatmeat is soooo good. The pumpkin provides a good boost of fiber (5g) for only 40 calories. Add some cinnamon, a little sweetener and a splash of milk and you're in business. Sometimes I sprinkle a tablespoon of slice almonds on top for texture.

I make mine with SF vanilla almond milk. Any type of milk makes it so much creamier than using water. I add 1/4c SF apple sauce, chopped walnuts, chopped craisins, cinnamon and a drizzle of agave nectar. SO good!

i'm pretty boring because i eat it the same everyday: cooked with half water/half skim milk, 1 T flax seed, 1 T flaxmeal, and cinnamon. I just ordered the PB2 peanut butter and will add that when it arrives.

I LOVE one tablespoon of peanut butter and one teaspoon of brown sugar in my oatmeal.

Things I want to try (thank you Womens Health Magazine):

Maple Bacon-2 slices of cooked bacon (crumbled) and two tablespoons of maple syrup
Strawberries and Cream-1/4 cup Greek yogurt, one tablespoon of honey, and sliced strawberries

If you go to the website they have more delicious ideas

Almond Joy Oatmeal:
Unsweetened toasted coconut, unsalted almond slices/slivers, hersheys unsweetened cocoa, and a splenda if you find it not sweet enough, (or sweetner of yoyur choice)
SOOOOOOOOOOO Good.

I love vanilla protein powder and blueberries in mine. I also put splenda in it. Or I will put banana, brown sugar splenda and cinnamon....along with the protein powder. I have to have protein at every meal, so when I want oatmeal, I add the powder and it does make it very tasty!! Sometimes I add Fiber One cereal to it too....gives you extra fiber to make my blood sugar not drop.

If I have plain or steel cut oatmeal, I add 2 teaspoons of raisins, 1/2 teaspoon of cinnamon, and several drops of either vanilla or orange extract. If that isn't sweet enough, I also sometimes add Stevia.

cobarlo14

oatmeal with brown sugar, raisins & cinnamon ! Yummy!

Hilary6177

I add a tsp. of stevia, 1 tsp. of brown sugar, and cinnamon, a 1/4 cup of raisins, and a whole apple cubed. It's pretty filling!

mogadad

I eat Quaker Weight Control in several favors. I add raw cinnamon and raw fruit like blueberries or cut apple sometimes but mostly plain. Boredom is listening to the voices in my head which for today I choose not to do

XXXMinnieXXX

Lots of wicked ideas. I'm going to be trying them. I've been eating them plain for a looooong time lol x
