    Just had a really nice combo I sort of made up today. I'm bulking atm...

    100g Rolled Oats
    350ml Semi Skimmed Milk
    25g Cookies n Cream Whey Protein (Vanilla would work too)
    1 tsp Light Brown Sugar
    1 Medium Banana
    Ground Nutmeg (To taste)

    Was really pleasant! It's a keeper ;)

    Love these suggestions. I like walnuts and a tablespoon of Dragon's Blend breakfast cereal. I always put a bit of milk or yogurt in. In Canada, about the only thing on the Tim Horton's breakfast menu I can tolerate is the berry oatmeal, NO SUGAR. Must elucidate carefully or the staff will forget. I stir in a little 2% milk.

    Butter and grade B maple syrup (the strong, dark stuff). Also, made up with chicken stock instead of water with mushrooms and sage -- a great whole grain side dish.

    My variations:
    1) oatmeal + Peanut butter + 1/2 banana + cinnamon
    2) oatmeal + Peanut butter + frozen blueberries/strawberries + cinnamon [I usually leave the berries in the closed tupperware for about 45mins as I'm getting ready for school so they defrost]
    3) My fave is cooking the oatmeal in water, but when its nearly done, reducing the heat and adding milk and Shredded wheat cereal, it turns into this porridge-like thing, then adding Blueberries!
    4) Oatmeal + dash of honey + blueberries + 5almonds
    5) oatmeal + honey + raisins

    only tried cinnamon, but I like these suggestions about nutmeg, coconut and cocoa powder. Will get me some next time
