    Nothing, i've learned to love the taste of the oatmeal itself. I used to add brown sugar while the oatmeal was hot, and let it sit for a few minutes. Delicious. Cinnamon is good too

    Blended apple and cinnamon and brown sugar. Tastes way better than packaged.

    swap the sugar or aspartme for a handful of juicy raisins, a 1/4 banana sliced, 2 table spoons of greek 0% fat yogurt sprinkled with cinamon. Yum

    After I nuke mine (also live on the edge) I throw in frozen blueberries (they thaw quick) and honey and mix it around. I eat this with a side of greek yogurt. I like it as my pre-workout meal.

    I add 1/2 tbsp of honey and a cup of unsweetened frozen mixed berries to hot oatmeal. The honey is just enough to sweeten it a touch and the mixed berries melt as you mix them into the hot oatmeal and the resulting juices kind of turn into a sweet syrup...

    It's delicious.

    Protein powder! My favorite is Trutein's cinnabun.

    Sometimes I'll add apple slices and cinnamon. Or canned pumpkin and nutmeg~

    The version I eat most often is making it with a mix of almond milk and regular milk, then mixing in ground flax seed, chocolate protein powder and a banana. The other version is the same except I add the flax, vanilla powder and dried cranberries.

    I stir in peanut butter, slice up a banana over top and drizzle with a tablespoon of honey. It's oatmeal that Elvis would be proud of.

    I usually use packaged oatmeal (gasp) and add a drizzle of honey and about a tbsp of whipping cream. Pair that with a coffee or some fruit. Keeps me full!

    Not much of a sweet person - chicken or pork - bouillon, nuke it 1 minute and bam - savory oatmeal for you there!

    PB, Honey, Cinnamon, walnuts, 2 scoops of whey protein. It's huge, when I make it I use a 12 cup glass measuring cup with a lid and roughly 150 grams quick oat's.

    Same here I will add some fate 2 percent for the protein and it gives it a different flavor Only I make steel cuts make a huge pot twice a week and split it into 2 serving containers to go. Micorwaves real nice a much better texture than instant.

    I'm a creature of habit. I eat oatmeal every morning during cold weather and smoothies during warm weather. I add dried cranberries, walnuts, flax seeds, cinnamon and almond milk.

    One time I did try to switch it up a little by adding PB2 and chocolate chips.... didn't like it as well.

    I make one cup of Old Fashioned Quaker Oats in two cups of water. Then add 1 or 2 soft boiled eggs after it is cooked. And sometimes it is just plain old oatmeal with nothing else.

    I use the steel cut oats, they take about 20 minutes to make but they are really satisfying. Today I had figs, strawberries, honey and bee pollen. Yum!
