I love oatmeal, but I haven't had it in forever because they only way I like it is with lots of butter and brown sugar.
So, I'm looking for healthier recipies for oatmeal

I put one packet of splenda and 1/2 cup blueberries or black raspberries0

Peanut butter and a half packet of sugar free hot chocolate (no-baked cookies). You could also use nutella and peanut butter, but the calories will go up pretty fast.
Apples, raisins and brown sugar or real maple syrup
eggs, dash of milk, tsp brown sugar in the microwave (nice and sweet and thick)0 -

Sounds nice and simple!! And yummy!!0 -
I make steel cut oats in my rice cooker (one cup of dry oats = 4 days of breakfast). I heat up my individual 3/4 - 1 cup serving, then add 1/2 cup almond milk or skim, a couple shakes of cinnamon and sometimes a teaspoon of ideal brown sugar no calorie sweetener. Top with some fresh raspberries, strawberries or blackberries. YUM.0

I just tried overnight oats for the first time this morning, yummy!! 1/2c oats (old fashioned kind), 1/2c skim milk, 1/2 greek yogurt-vanilla and 1/2c of fruit, mix put in fridge overnight, grab & enjoy in the morning0

Made oatmeal for the kids over the weekend and put strawberries and peaches cut into little pieces into it. Now i made a big pot of it (3 kids + me and the wife), but you could always shrink the size. I think any fruit would work. We usually add honey / syrup / splenda to it depending on the mood. Just watch how much of the sweeteners0

I mix equal parts of dry regular oatmeal and low fat vanilla yogurt. Then let it regrigerate overnight (or at least a few hours). I had never heard of this until I joined MFP and several members from the UK suggested it. Very yummy!0

I've been adding a banana, blueberries, and a dash of cinnamon to mine. Sometimes I just do raisins and cinnamon. It tastes, delicious, fills you up, and is less calories than my go-to breakfast of cereal and soymilk.0

I laugh when my kids beg for that since it really isn't bad. I use less water in it so that it is nice and thick too. They really think they are getting a sweat treat, but it isn't really0 -
I just tried the overnight oatmeal too.... I think what I did needs tweaking but it's not a bad alternative in the mornings. I have been hearing good things about chia seeds so I was interested in trying them out.
