    INGREDIENTS:
    1/2 cup oats
    1 egg
    1/2 medium ripe banana, mashed*
    2 tsp honey*
    1.5 tsp cinnamon*

    DIRECTIONS:
    1. Mix oats and egg in a bowl. (Or mug.)
    2. Add in banana, honey, and cinnamon,and mix well.
    3. Microwave for 2 minutes.
    4. Eat.



    With bananas, honey, and cinnamon, the final calorie count for the bowl comes out to around 330 calories, with 21 grams of protein, 59g carbohydrates, and a mere six grams of fat. Most of the fat comes from the egg; I don't know if the texture would still be right if you omitted the yolk or used egg substitute. Try it and report back, if you're also one of those people who believes egg yolk is bad for you.

    I had this today for breakfast!!! It was SSSOOOOO good!! I usually don't really care for oatmeal....but this was amazingly good and EASY!
    My nutritional info was different from the OP though. Guess it varies between brands used. Mine was as follows. PS. I used the whole banana. :smile:

    Mmmm. This sounds like a yummy idea. Definitely going to try it out. I'm always looking for ways to sneak in more protein.

    Bump. I will have to try. I'm one of those people that can't eat regular oatmeal because of the texture. This sounds like something I will like though! Thanks!

    This sounds great! Stupid question perhaps, but should the oatmeal be cooked? I am assuming no, but since my oats are not instant, I am wondering if it will come out cakey if I put them in uncooked? What did you do and were your oats instant or the bigger flakes?

    It reminded me of softer/moister banana bread!

    This sounds delish!! I don't like slimy oatmeal so this should be perfect for me...going to try Smuckers sugar Free Strawberry Jam & some crunchy granola. Thanks for the recipe!!

    mmmm I used your idea this morning

    I had 30gm of oats
    1/8 cup egg whites
    1/2 a medium banana
    and I threw in 5gm of ground flaxseed.

    put in a little bit of water, zapped in microwave and was tasty :) Very filling! I usually add natural sweetener in my bowl of oats in the mornings (I usually just have the oats with water and sweetener) but the banana gave it a slight sweetness so the sweetener was not required.

    Worked out to be 191 calories, 26gm carbs, 11gm protein, 3gm fat, 7gm sugar.

    Next time, I think I will throw in a little bit of ground cinnamon :)

    Thanks for the idea!
