    Interesting. I've never tried cooking it with the berries in it. I usually prep the oatmeal, add some almond slivers, berries, and unsweetened applesauce. I found there's no need for sugar this way.

    I always cook my porridge (can you tell I'm British lol) with my fruit already in it. The berries pop and add sweetness and colour, chopped apple turns into little pockets of apple sauce and dried fruit rehydrates and becomes really juicy. I really like apple and cinnamon - it tastes like apple pie!

    I like my oatmeal savory. I use it like I would use rice, potatoes, etc.

    Ive been having overnight oats this week. Rolled oats, vanilla protein, Quark yoghurt, peanut butter, and grated zucchini all mixed with a bit of water. Add frozen berries and chopped roasted nuts when I want to eat it.

    No, that's not bad at all! You could even use peanut powder.

    Me too.

    1/2 cup oats, 1 cup low sodium chicken broth. Serve with a fried egg or two on top and a sprinkle of cheese.
