    I put a little bit of golden syrup, banana, walnuts, dark chocolate chips in mine - hence why I don't eat it every day, it ends up being 700 calories of deliciousness.

    That's my main issue with oatmeal, honestly. I make a delicious almond butter and jelly oatmeal but that ends up being 450 calories or something.

    Made it with water today and tastes just as good just looks a bit less appealing

    Porridge is a weakness of mine but because it's so high in carbs which make me binge, I have to avoid it.
    If I'm going to treat myself to some I'll have:
    Steel cut oats
    Cocoa powder
    Honey or coconut sugar
    Almond or peanut butter
    Chia seeds
    Almond milk
    Mmmmm

    I like the texture of bob red mill's scottish or irish oats. I cook them low and slow with whole milk, cinnamon, and vanilla extract. When it's done I sprinkle with some nuts, dried fruits and a splash of cream. It's a labor of love but so worth the time!

    I admit I'm too lazy for that. I microwave mine, lol.


    It is pretty time consuming lol

    30g porridge oats
    50g frozen berries
    150ml almond or coconut alpro
    All bunged together in a bowl in the microwave.

    Overnight oats is a good way to have porridge oats aswell, not sure of the quantities as not had them in a long time but used to use oats, natural yoghurt and tinned peach slices, sometimes a few raisins thrown in too. All in a jar and left in the fridge overnight ready for the morning

    I mix steel-cut oats and quinoa together, cook up enough for the week and divide it into 5 portions. In the morning, I reheat a portion in the microwave, add 10g hemp seed, 5g cacao nibs, 5g honey, 2.5-3 oz fresh yogurt, and about 120g of banana. Lately I have been adding in 2-3oz of dark chocolate almond milk as well. Tasty :)

    Last night I had 48g of oats cooked in water on the stove, and topped it with a banana, 15g mini chocolate chips, and 10g pumpkin seeds. Then, I gave it a grind of pink sea salt. It was dessert, so the calories were worth it.

    40g oats
    Half a scoop of vanilla protein
    Water
    Drizzle with melted peanut butter or honey or both and banana slices...very yummy! My protein powder makes it creamy without having to add any milk.

    40 g of large oats, about the same amount of water, microwave in 1.5 minute intervals, add blueberries, cinnamon, a bit of stevia and then 1/8 to a quarter cup of some kind of milk.

    Keeps me full for a pretty long time. I find that oats don't make me crave more carbs, I'm satisfied by them.
