I like overnight oats. Don't care for hot oatmeal. Do like it in breakfast muffins or baked or in cookies.1

Been adding 1/2 c Fage plain and 4 oz of fresh blackberries to steel cut oats.
OMG, so delicious and very satisfying!
I used to do savory oatmeals, there were some great ideas in this thread. Going to try again, thanks for the inspiration!0 -
Just ate some oatmeal! I don't love it plain- but w some yummies added (fruit, brown sugar & half & half) it was tasty on a chilly morning... I really ate it though bc I needed to eat carbs before my workout later (6g fiber is always good, too)! Didn't eat it for a long time when using MFP bc a bagel has about the same amount of carbs & I find good bagels tastier than oats.0

The texture grosses me out so much. I want to eat it because it's obviously so good for me, but yuck. I will eat it dry (i.e. in a granola bar or on my multi-grain bread), though.0

hate it! But i have a few packets in my office for when I forget to bring breakfast. it's less gross if I cut up half an apple and mix it in.1

I've recently had major dental work so have to eat soft foods and tried oatmeal for the first time today. It was disgusting! I think the instructions on the pack may have been wrong, though, as it said 1/2 cup of oatmeal mixed with 1/2 cup of water, then microwaved. It probably needed about twice as much liquid. Even so, I couldn't handle the taste, though I love oatcakes from the same brand. Weird.0

Try this. http://fitfoodiefinds.com/2016/04/espresso-overnight-oats-salted-date-caramel/ I eat it every morning cuz it's tastes great and is supper simple to make. I don't use the "caramel" on it. I put some dried fruit in it instead.0

Blahh I'd never cook oatmeal with water, it would end up tasting like boring sloppy cardboard. I always use milk.1 -
Steel cut or rolled oats cooked just until done - I don't care for them when they're overdone and gluey. A teaspoon of coconut oil and a dash of salt, cinnamon, maybe a chopped apple or dried fruit and nuts, and it's a very filling meal.
Don't eat what you hate, however. Sometimes that's your body telling you that it won't thrive on that food, or in that format. For instance, I never feel well if I eat raw spinach salads, but I feel awesome when I eat cooked spinach. Life's too short to choke down a food just because it's "healthy". It just might not be the best choice for you. Try cracked wheat, millet, barley - there are tons of options - if you want a hot cereal other than oatmeal.0 -
Just starting eating it and I LOVE it. I put 25gm granola and fresh fruit in it.0

I love oatmeal! My favorite way is to make rolled oats with no sugar added sliced peaches, a bit of almond milk and a bit of brown sugar. It tastes like peach cobbler!1

I love oatmeal, but I rarely eat it. It just doesn't stick with me even when I doll it up with nuts and milk and whatnot. I need a solid animal protein in the morning.1

And some sort of flavour something. Plain water and oatmeal? I'd hate that too.0 -
I prefer baked oatmeal.0

I've just started eating overnight oats and enjoy it. Ive used half a cup of oats, sprinkled cinnamon, 25 g of ground flaxseed, a mashed banana, two tsbp of peanut butter and a cup of almond milk. I mix that up good the night prior and place in the fridge to eat the next day. And you could add some berries to it when you're about to eat it.0

I've never heard of savory oats in my life!0
-
Love it, oats, water (microwave couple min) then add cinnamon!0
-
I love it! I add bananas and PB protein powder, or raisins and cinnamon pp. I won't eat it plain-- maybe that's why you don't like it.0
