BUMP!!!! can't wait to try, i looooove oatmeal0

I love this idea - and the yummylife site. I already use oatmeal in my yogurt smoothie - I just grind it to a powder and then add in the other smoothie ingredients. So, this is another fun way to enjoy the same ingredients - and have it ready when I get up! Thanks!!0

I used to make the oat part (Oats, greek yogurt and almond milk) and then use it as the base of my smoothie each morning. Made it nice and thick and healthy!0

Cold oatmeal... sounds interesting; maybe I'll try it some day.
For those who prefer hot oatmeal...
Another great way to prepare your breakfast in advance is to put one part old-fashioned oats (1/3 cup) and any dry add-ins you like into a wide-mouthed vacuum jar (e.g. Thermos), then when ready, add 2 parts (2/3 cup) boiling water, close tightly and shake vigorously a few times. After 20 minutes, the oatmeal is ready to eat. I have tried steel cut oats, but you really have to shake it for a much longer time to prevent clumping.
I prepare the dry ingredients the night before, add the boiling water while getting ready for work in the morning, and let it "cook" during my commute; then I have a nice hearty breakfast all ready to eat when I get into the office.
For add-ins, I like dried cranberries, whatever chopped nuts I have on hand, cinnamon, nutmeg, and even a little allspice or ginger, if I feel so inclined that day. I also like to add a teaspoon of vanilla when I add the boiling water (that is if I remember; my mind isn't always so sharp in the morning). I also like to mix in some ground flax seed, but when I do, I either increase the water a bit or decrease the oatmeal to maintain the right consistency.0 -
I am so going to try these!0

I saw the skinnytaste recipe on Monday and had to try it out. It's really good, and I've been eating it all week. I'll have to try the pina colada recipe. That looks really good!
My variation:
1/4 cup quick oats
1/2 cup almond milks
1/2 tbsp chia seeds
1/4 chopped banana
1/8 cup nuts (pecans or walnuts)
1/8 cup dates
