Can anyone make this stuff taste good? I like that it fills me up with a minimal amount, and its generally good for you. But I just cant get passed the texture and taste. I like the prepackaged stuff but its loaded with sugar. Do I just have to suck it up and plug my nose if I want to eat this stuff?

I like mine with berries and a couple tablespoons of part-skim ricotta. I know it sounds weird but it makes it creamier.0

I question why you would eat something that you don't like. It's easiest to diet eating foods you like, even the sol called "bad" ones, just fit them in, in moderation0 -
I love steel cut oats!! I cook it by the pot and then heat up a scoop in the microwave:
1 cup oats
2 cups water
2 cups milk
4 packs splenda
vanilla
cinnamon
dash of salt
Cook over med-low heat until it iis the consistency you like.
You can also bake it. I layer a 13x9 pan with fruit, pour the above over it, cover with foil and bake for 35-40 min at 350.
I also like it mixed with vanilla yogurt. I have also been known eat oatmeal mixed with sugarfree hot chocolate mix for dessert.0 -
i like to chop half an apple and mix that in and add cinnamon before it goes in the microwave. then top with about a half-teaspoon of brown sugar. or i like raisins and walnuts, or even a tablespoon of dark chocolate chips. i did a quick search for healthy oatmeal recipes and a site called mrbreakfast.com has about 40+ recipes. just have to find some ways to mix it up and make it taste great!0

Good quality carbs. Its not really about the diet. More about the running fuel.0

oh baby.... i can't go one morning without porridge. i make mine with milk instead of water and then add berries (frozen when the fresh ones are pricey) and a bit of brown sugar. if u dont have berries use cinnamon and the sugar.0

Cheeze! Just throw a big chunk of brown sugar in nuke em, and add milk. Easy, yummy and quick.0

I mix 2 TBSP of oat bran with fat free yogurt. Serves the purpose of filling me up w/o the taste/sugar of oatmeal. Works great to lower colesterol too!0

cinnamon, honey and raisins0

+1 on the coffee grinder suggestion.
Also try:
3/4 cup oatmeal
cook it
add 1/2 cup frozen berry mix
1/4 cup skim milk
1 scoop protien powder0 -
Steel cut oats are the answer to the texture problem.0

I eat a lot of oatmeal for breakfast and try to switch it up to avoid getting bored.
Oatmeal+thinly sliced apples+ cinnamon+stevia= tastes like apple pie
Oatmeal+thinly sliced peaches+cinnamon+stevia=peach cobbler
Do the same thing with other fruits like blueberries and see what you like.
I also like to add a little REAL maple syrup, raisins, cinnamon or a tbsp of peanut butter, cinnamon and bananas0 -
I add coconut milk, a little organic sugar and some fruit and nuts. Sooo good.0
