    I am on a specific diet and can only have eggwhites and oatmeal in the morning.

    However, I have come up with (I think) a tasty solution. I mix 4 eggwhites and 1/2 cup of oatmeal with a tsp of sweet potato (baby food), cinnamon to taste and 1 pkg of splenda. I mix it all in a magic bullet and put it in a muffin pan. One serving makes two muffins. I bake at 350 for 25 minutes. They rise and pop out of the muffin pan, but as they cool they will fall. I make these on Sunday and have them for the rest of the week.

    For my husband I subsitute the spleda for a tsp of sugar and add raisans. He tops it with peanut butter.

    I like to add sugar free syrup on top of mine. :)

    Hope this helps!
