    I eat it every day for breakfast. I usually add fresh or frozen blueberries & cinammon, or apples & cinammon. For good fats I'll add chopped almonds or ground flaxseed. Occasionally I'll add unsweetened coconut and cocoa.

    I eat oatmeal for breakfast every single day! I add raisins, cranberries, peanutbutter, walnuts, and this weekend I even added a tablespoon of chocolate chips...it was yummy! the raisins and chocolate made my oatmeal taste like a oatmeal raisin cookie!!

    ps I don't add all those things at the same time or it would make it better to eat a egg and bacon breakfast :laugh:

    I eat it everyday. I usually just make it with water and slice a banana into it once it's ready.

    I add apples, brown sugar and cinnamon. Some days I substitute a banana for the apple, or raisins.

    I eat maple & brown sugar flavored oatmeal and i put in 1 tbsp or less of maple syrup and a whole banana sliced up. I like quaker high fiber and I also like the brand oat fit but it's hard to find.

    Every day. I eat a lot of it. 2 servings or about 300 calories. I add one of blueberries, strawberries, or a banana to it in addition to walnuts and almonds or pecans. Oh, the most important ingredient is brown sugar. I try to eat a large share of my daily calorie intake early and this fits the bill.

    I eat it almost every day, I add cinnamon while its cooking and when done I add fruit and sometimes splenda, because its pretty bland sometimes. I buy the packaged frozen fruit so I always have an assortment to choose from.

    today I ate it plain. Yesterday I added almonds and cranberries. The day before I added a bit of syrup. I have also added brown sugar and pecans.

    I love oatmeal and just recently switched to the steal cut oats. Just read that they are better for you but they do take quite a bit longer to cook.
