I eat oatmeal every week day, because it's an easy breakfast for me to take to work.
I mix mine up in a cute little glass mason jar in the mornings and zap for 1.5 mins when I get to the office.
I use 1/2 cup old fashioned oats, 3/4 almond milk, tsp of agave nectar, splash of vanilla, dash of salt, and a sprinkle of Gingerbread Cookie seasoning from Flavor God.

I go on spurts, but when I am in my oatmeal phase, I eat them every day. I prefer to use the overnight oats method and use both quick, and thick oats with no issues. Tastes great and is an easy meal to grab on the go.

I make steel cut oats in the slow cooker--I cup a day. It fills me up and gives me energy for running. I usually don't eat carbs at all at night, and often the oatmeal is the only whole grain based dish I have in a day.0

Not a lot. Once a month maybe.
I prefer baked oatmeal. Usually use old fashioned rolled oats.

I believe what I use is old fashioned oatmeal, and I make porridge with equal amounts of water and whole milk. I would like to eat it more often than once every two weeks or so, but there are so many foods and I have just one tiny stomach. I think it tastes great with a pat of butter.0

I do s'mores or rocky road oatmeal (steel cut oats) and plan on trying cookies and cream oatmeal. - www.theproteinchef.co0

Everyday! I love mine mixed in with ON casein, coconut flour, flax meal and fruit. Sometimes I will mix in peanut butter & chocolate chips.

Now I want oatmeal cookies.2

I like the taste of oatmeal but not the texture, so I've used it as a flour substitute for pancakes, tortillas, muffins, and other quick-breads. Now I'm expanding into yeast territory, and dragging oatmeal/flour, kicking and screaming there with me.2

His baking mix is gluten free and it's a really decent price too, and all the recipes I looked at were simple to make gluten free. I'm in big trouble. Protein is so filling for me, and protein sweets are right up my alley. The older I've gotten, the bigger my sweet tooth is.
Banana oat muffins with frosting you say? I'm off to look those up. I love all things banana.

Not much. It doesn't keep me going!
I always laugh when I see advice which says oatmeal/porridge is a good breakfast as it will keep you going til lunch. Nope! I burn through a bowl of that stuff in about two hours. I think it's because I'm Scottish and have a specially-adapted, oat-powered digestion. Boiled oats are no challenge to it. I need to eat dry oats for them to keep me going (muesli, granola, oatcakes).
When I do make it, it's a weekend late-breakfast treat. I use what we call "porridge oats", I believe in the States they're called "quick cook oats". I cook them with water and salt and then I go off the rails adding cinnamon, raisins, chocolate, cream, brown sugar, you name it. Mr. Garage disapproves of all this. In his mind, porridge is cooked with WATER AND SALT and then you eat it like that, in its pure state, like the good Lord intended.7
