    I use all types of add-ins. After all, "variety is the spice of life!". Some of my favs: plain Kefir with ground flax seeds, frozen unsweetened blueberries or black cherries, and cinnamon. YUM! I just read about a restaurant in NYC that specializes in all types of oatmeal flavors. Some of the owners versions are savory rather than sweet. One I think I would consider trying was avocado with a fried egg, and Sriracha. Spicy and healthy too. Haven't done it yet, but maybe during the fall when spicy food coupled with comfort food (oatmeal) makes the cold weather seem a little warmer!

    I love avocado with an egg baked in the middle and a few drops of sriracha. Going to give it a try mixed into oatmeal.

    I have birthday cake whey protein that I stir in and I use a variety of nut butters (salted caramel/white chocolate/snickerdoodle) and fruit :smile:

    PB powder (or real peanut butter) plus sugar-free chocolate syrup! Dessert for breakfast!

    Frozen peaches and blueberries are great together in plain oatmeal with a little honey. Also, PB + honey + banana is a favorite! Dried cherries + walnuts or pecans is a yummy combo too.

    My favorite oats contain cream cheese (for creaminess), cinnamon, egg whites (for volume, no taste if made correctly), PEScience protein powder, blueberries, shredded coconut, and coconut peanut butter spread out on top, NOT mixed in, so you can taste it in every bite. I've eaten this a million times and never get sick of it. I could eat it every single day.

    Cook in water with a tablespoon of soy sauce and add a squirt or more of Sirachi. Top with a fried egg and 15 grams of cashews, maybe a little more Sirachi

    Which birthday cake protein do you use? I got the MyProtein one recently and it's really REALLY bland...!

    This week it's powdered coconut milk added to the oatmeal as it's cooking. It comes out extra creamy. I am adding raisins, vanilla yogurt and raw sunflower seeds. That's this week.

    Where do I get powdered coconut milk? This sounds intriguing!
