    Original poster stated that she's starting a new program to reset her metabolism, one of the breakfast choices is steel oats which she was not familiar with.

    So, it is not the oats specifically, but a new food program she's following. I get it. :bigsmile:

    I prefer steel cut oats. They taste like real food, and have a nice chewy mouth feel. Thick rolled oats are 2nd best option - they are a nice halfway between steel cut and wallpaper paste. But I also like adding other whole grains in like barley or wheat or whatever to mix it up.

    I make mine in a fancy-schmanzy rice cooker with a timer. Set it the night before, and then add a slug of milk 5 mins before serving to make it all creamy. I mix yogurt and fruit, bit of bran and sometimes a drizzle of honey. DD has her drowned in milk and honey, but she's 8 and can get away with it.

    If you can find Silver Palate, you can have the texture of steel cut oats and (almost) the convenience of instant. You can microwave a bowl on 50% power for 10min. I usually do 9 min because I like it a little more al dente.
