    I eat natty PB and quick oats daily, sometimes two times a day. I also add a tbsp of olive oil in mine for easy extra calories.

    I have this for breakfast every day at work. I've become so frugal I don't even buy the packets of instant anymore. I just scoop 1/2 cup regular oats from the can into a coffe mug, fill with hot water from the tea maker, and microwave for 20 seconds. Watch closely so it doesn't boil over. Add 1 tsp peanut butter. Stir and let sit for 2-3 minutes until the oats finish cooking themselves. Everyone comments that it smells like a cookie. Bonus: the peanut butter keeps me full through the morning so I'm less tempted to help myself to the candy on the secretary's desk. Thanks, everyone, for the other great add in suggestions.

    This is one of our favorites!!! My 10yo dd absolutely LOVES oatmeal (regular or steel cut oats) w/ natural PB and some all fruit. It's like a PB & J in a bowl! :bigsmile:

    Sounds yummy! I'm trying it in the morning. And wouldn't you know, I went to the grocery store and bought bananas earlier today. Thanks for the idea.
