I don't believe all the stories about sweeteners besides the controversies are just too much and confusing. I use a pinch of salt while cooking and a table spoon of good old sugar 30 calories (better the devil u know than the angel u do not know), sometimes I use honey whc to me is worse cos a tsp is 30 calories and a handful of peanuts.0

My favorite way to eat oatmeal is in a protein smoothie with peanut butter and bananas. I don't really care for "mushy" oatmeal, but a big plate of fruit and granola are right up my alley!0

I have recently started eating oatmeal in the morning to try and help me lose weight. The old fashioned stove top kind, not the packets. I have been using a little brown sugar to flavor it, but it's still a little bland. Any suggestions?
I put blueberries and raspberries in mine. I buy a bunch of blueberries and raspberries when they are in season, then I lay them out on a cookie sheet and freeze them. They stay individually frozen until I put them in my oatmeal bowl. I usually zap them in the microwave for 30 seconds before I cook them with my oatmeal in the microwave. I also put about a tsp of cinnamon in also.0 -
I my oatmeal. I eat it almost every day. I use old fashioned oats, mix oatmeal 1:2 with water in my small pyrex bowel, pop it in the microwave for 2:30 min, mix in 1 tsp real butter, stevia (an all natural sweetner) and a little apple pie seasoning. Sometimes I use pumpkin pie seasoning. Sometime I add fresh fruit.
Thanks for the great post, and thanks to all the others for their creative and delicious sounding replies! gonna try some of these variations! Yum Yum0 -

Protein pancake:
Whisk together 3/4 cup egg whites, 28 grams of plain oatmeal, 1/8 cup water, ¼ tsp vanilla extract, cinnamon & splenda to taste, let sit for about 5 mins. Fry in pam-sprayed frying pan like a pancake. Cut into wedges & enjoy!
If you need more protein just add a little whey protein powder OR you can add peanut butter for a topping instead of syrup.
Always helps me eat my oatmeal.0 -
Coconut Palm Sugar...yummy caramelized flavor. Use the same amount as you would sugar (or, less). I've been using it since Dr. Oz recommened it on his show. Here's more info, I never use anything else...

I eat oatmeal almost every morning because it keeps me full for a long time.
My oatmeal looks like this: 1/2 c dry oatmeal, one banana, a bit of brown sugar, and about 1/4 c plain soymilk.
I had a nutritionist who approved of this breakfast very much. I love the banana in it, but peaches and apples, even walnuts are awesome. Also, steel cut oats are delicious as well, with a unique texture that might appeal to someone who needs to switch things up.0
