I just tried oatmeal this morning and was wondering the same thing. I put one tablespoon of brown sugar, but think that is a bit too much. I also put cinnamon and vanilla. I like the blueberries and flaxseed idea though!0
-
Coconut milk, raisins and cardamom. YUM!
OR
maple syrup and raisins0 -
I put chopped Gala apples and cinnamon in my oatmeal. Maybe some walnuts if I have some0
-
I eat oatmeal every morning also. I don't do the instant, I start out cooking my oatmeal in almond milk instead of water, then I add flaxseed, cinnamon, a scoop of vanilla protein powder and a Tbsp of natural peanut butter.0

I added a banana to mine yesterday.0

I add 1 TBSP of better'n peanut butter and 3 oz of dannon lite and fit yogurt0

I like the Bobs Red Mill steel cut oats. (you can buy them at Big Lots for a lot cheaper). I put peanut butter, craisins, raisins, honey, sliced almonds, & blueberries in mine. I make a large amount and freeze it in individual portions that I can take out the night before for the next morning. It heats up great and is very filling and yummy!0 -
I have 1/4 c. oatmeal, a sprinkle of sugar, and a tbs of peanut butter with hot water (sometimes soy milk). It is delicious and filling!0

That sounds good! Do you add all that while it's still cooking or once it's done?0 -
1 tsp Unsweetened, unsalted peanut butter and 1 tbs sugar free blueberry jam.0

Honey and blueberries0

two tablespoons of extra chunky regular fat peanut butter, and a sliced up banana. you're welcome.0

1 tbs natural peanutbutter
1/2 cup blueberries, 1 small banana, OR 2 tbs raisins (depends on my mood and what's in the house)
1 scoop protein powder (if I'm not also having scrambled egg whites on the side)
Splash of nonfat milk0 -
PB with 1T of semi sweet mini chocolate chips if I am wanting something a little sweet :happy:0

strawberries. they're coming into season and are on major sale at every store near me. they're sweet enough to keep me from adding anything else.0

So, oatmeal is a recent addition to my breakfast routine. I just got to the point where I like it enough to eat it. I use half fresh pressed apple juice and half water and about 2tsp of brown sugar and dried cranberries. Makes taste yummy!0

Flax seed was going to be my suggestion, but you know that one already.
Sometimes I put a little molasses in as well.

I put mixed berries (strawberries, blueberries, raspberries, blackberries) a little cinnamon, ground flax seeds and just a touch of stevia in mine. That's how I roll0

Protein Powder and peanut butter. (especially the PB&CO Dark Chocolate Dreams!)0

1 Tbs peanut butter and 1tsp of Tastefully Simple Caramel Cinnamon Sprinkles or plain Cinnamon:)0

I also avoid the instant stuff as I prefer to control the sweetening.
My standard is to add a tsp of stevia & a serving of toasted wheat germ.
Another good one is a serving of unsweetened apple sauce and a pinch of cinnamon.0 -
1/2 tsp cinnamon
1/2 tsp stevia
1/2 bananna
Yum yum yum!!0 -
