    I like savory steel cut oats... nom!! Still trying out new versions, but I still with these two for the most part. I top my bowl with an egg to round out the meal.

    Sesame oats: cook with chicken stock, ginger, and sesame seeds. Top with sesame oil ( I use 1 tsp), soy sauce, chili sauce, and green onions to taste.

    Truffle oats: cook with beef stock and garlic. Top with sauteed mushrooms and onions (caramelized onions are fantastic, if you have the time to make them), truffle oil, and Parmesan cheese.

    I'm trying to perfect a bacon & white cheddar version, but so far the sesame is by far the best.

    Don't try these with rolled oats... bleh!

    I chop half an apple down into bite-sized pieces, and add 1/2 tbsp light brown sugar and some cinnamon.

    Also, 1-2 tbsp of canned pumpkin, a little cinnamon and pumpkin pie spice.

    I'd think that many fruits would be awesome too. Pears, berries, etc.

    I make one of these three options almost every day.

    My favorite way? The way you make a banana split but with oatmeal instead of icecream.

    Here are some other delicious recipes with pictures and nutritional values:

    So many good ideas! My personal fav is overnight steel cut, real maple syrup to sweeten, Apple Pie spice and Apple chunks.

    ETA: to added - Small amount of vanilla protein shake (to up protein and to replace milk)

    I cover every square millimeter of the top of the cooked oatmeal in my bowl with cinnamon. Add an ounce of crushed walnuts. Then a banana or raisins or other fruit. Instead of milk I use 1/2 cup of unsweetened applesauce.

    Make your oatmeal with unsweetened vanilla almond milk. For crunch I put a 1/2 serving of fiber one cereal, for sweetness I add a handful of fresh blueberries and I love to top it with 80g of Fage 0% greek yogurt. yumm!!

    100 cal oatmeal
    20 cal almond milk
    30 cal fiber one
    40 cal Fage
    20 cal blueberries
    __
    Total 210 cal and very filling_

    I like cooking a banana with the rolled oats then add cinnamon once cooked. The banana makes it nice and sweet. Sometimes I fry a ripe plantain banana in a half a teaspoon of coconut oil, set aside, cook the oatmeal then add the banana to eat. Yummy!

    I like mine with milk, sugar and cinnamon. I've added raisins to it a few times too. There's obviously oatmeal chocolate chip cookies :-D

    I was given some oatmeal that has the cinnamon already added in it. This morning, I cooked it with water and just ate it that way. It wasn't bad but I know I'll get sick of it fast that way.

    Therefore, tomorrow I'm going to add some unsweetened applesauce to it. And, possibly, a little more cinnamon as there wasn't much cinnamon flavor to it.

    Today, I added the unsweetened apple sauce. Yuk, I only added a tablespoon but it overpowered it.
