Hi Gang,
What is your favourite way to prepare your Oats?
Mines super simple....I pour boiling water over them, let them sit until soft and then top with honey.
What's yours?

    Mix with almond milk and microwave then add whatever topping I'm in the mood for (almond butter and jelly is my favorite).

    All oats are outlawed in my house hold as well as kale. These two did not make it to my family menu plan. :(:(

    I pour into a Tupperware with almond milk, agave, fruit and vanilla. Then keep in fridge overnight for breakfast (I like it cold during the summer). Works great with PB2 also ;)

    I turn the oats in to flour and make pancakes. Not a fan of porridge.

    Pancakes as well, oats, egg whites, cottage cheese, cinnamon and splenda all in the blender for batter. Adding apple slices or berries while cooking. SOOOOO good.

    I just tried overnight oats the other day. I think I used 1/2 cup oats with 1 serving vanilla greek yogurt with a little milk to give it a little more liquid, then about 20 blueberries. Stick in the fridge overnight. In the morning, they are soft, and it's SOOO creamy.
    Next I want to try Chocolate Strawberry overnight oats, I just haven't gotten strawberries yet.

    Cook them on the stove with whatever fruit sounds good that day, add honey and maybe vanilla and nuts or sunflower seeds at the last minute. Also either butter or milk once off the heat.

    Do not like them microwaved at. All. Nope. Yick. Cold overnight oats even worse :s

    Oatmeal mixed with maple syrup and a little butter.

    Or oatmeal with home made fruit sauce.

    Awesome guys....some more options for me. I usually put boiling water on mine and leave until soft and top with honey. Love it this way but wanted to try some new ways. Thanks everyone....hopefully more ideas keep coming.

    My basic overnight oats:

    40g rolled oats
    1/2c unsweetened almond milk
    55g plain Greek yogurt
    13g vanilla bean Trutein powder
    1/4tsp vanilla extract

    I make five on Sunday night for the week, put them in jars and just shake. In the morning I add whatever combo I feel like. Lately I'm liking plums/pineapple/cinnamon/nutmeg/pecans/maple syrup or cocoa powder/bananas/raspberries/cherries/honey.
