    I love oatmeal. Steel cut is the best. I keep it simple and mix in pumpkin pie spice and a half banana sliced. I sweeten it just a tad with either brown sugar or a small amount of Stevia. I make a large enough batch to last a couple more days. On the days that I reheat it, I add almond milk to adjust the consistency.

    I make my own granola with oatmeal as it's base, between it and regular old fashioned oats, probably 5 days a week, sometimes 6. My granola contains, flax, pumpkin, sunflower, sesame seeds, I vary between dates, craisins, walnuts or almonds. On regular oatmeal I add lots of different things, but my favorite is walnuts and brwn sugar.

    McCann's steel cut made in the slow cooker overnight. (Google slow cooker oatmeal.) I add:
    5 roasted unsalted almonds
    1/3 cup frozen blueberries
    3 slices of frozen peach
    1/2 skim milk

    Yummy!

    Sometimes I slice half a banana instead of the frozen fruit if the bananas are getting too brown.

    I usually have instant oatmeal (but I am going to give steel-cut oats a try soon). My favourite thing to put in is cranberry trail mix, but today I put in almonds and raspberries. Yum!

    I eat steel cut oats for breakfast every morning. I usually add cinnamon, splenda, and a half cup of pumpkin. I warm it in the microwave and it's so yummy and fills me up. I also have a half cup of plain greek yogurt to get some protein in, too!

    I love oatmeal, and I like to keep it simple -- milk and a couple teaspoons of sugar.

    I eat the Quaker instant flavor variety - I know it's not as good for me as the 'real stuff' - but it's better than what I used to eat - NOTHING :) I don't add anything but ¼ cup of skim milk

    It's porridge in Great Britain and I eat it everyday, sometimes for lunch too.
    I use instant porridge oats sachets in the various flavours they come in.
    I like mine with water not milk and eat it piping hot!

    I do it sometimes, and I put dried cranberries, apples, cinnamon, a small packet of sugar, and sometimes bananas in there.

    I actually cooked my oatmeal this morning with Vanilla Almond milk & it didn't need anything extra it was yummy all by itself. I guess the vanilla flavoring from the milk was plenty, although I added a tsp of cinnamon & a tsp of brown sugar to it.
