I've got some quick oats I want to use up.

How much do you guys usually make for a serving? What do you put in it?

Recipes would be appreciated. :)

I've never made oatmeal from "scratch" before!

    If you have the calories to spare, a tablespoon of peanut butter is amazing in oatmeal. Add banana to that too if you like that combo :) I love oatmeal..I usually buy the pre sweetened fruit flavored packets and put peanut butter in those :)

    i just mix 1/2 cup oats, water, honey, and cinnamon, and microwave for 2 mins. then mix with non-fat milk/soymilk/whatever. Very Yummy! oh yea, and a sprinkle of raisins. :)

    I'd throw the quick oats in some other recipe, they're gonna be mushy and carb-y. Then pick up some McCann's Irish Oats next time you're at the store. Yum.

    That's another question I should have asked. What kind of oats do you guys use?

    All I have right now is quick oats...but I'm open to suggestions. :)
