    i use craisins, cinnamon (alot) and usually 1 T. Honey
    you could slice some banana in it and add some chopped pecans
    I have used stevia in place of the honey too......tend to be over on sugar for the day if I do the honey and craisins and then eat another fruit that day.
    there are tons of combinations for oatmeal.
    some people say peanut butter mixed in although i've not tried it and i'm not sure why as i love peanut butter! lol

    Frozen Blueberries and a little protein Powder or 1 small chopped apple, some cinnamon and a little honey or brown sugar. You can also add walnuts as well. Chopped peaches and cinnamon are so good too!

    All these taste like having cobbler! Not paste..yum!

    Sweet oatmeal turns my stomach. I can only eat mine with salt/soy sauce and maybe a bit of green pepper and onion. And not much water while cooking it either. Savoury is the only way for me.

    LOL love the analogy! I use crasines or cinnamon for mine when I have it if not I blend it up into a smoothie. I will sometimes add other fruit as well.

    Lately I've been using sugar free blackberry jam, which has been really good. Applesauce and cinnamon isn't bad either.

    If it tastes like wallpaper paste, you don't know how to make it.

    I usually have my porridge with agave nectar and a chopped banana... Yum! I had no idea what craisins were - I thought people kept misspelling raisins, but they're dried cranberries! Haha... I might try some dried cranberries too :)

    I tried apple butter in it this morning and it was really good. I just wished I had a little extra cinnamon to put in it.

    Lately I've been using cinnamon, brown sugar, and pecans.

    But sometimes I'll use banana, peanut butter, a few chocolate chips.

    I buy the instant prepackaged servings, maple & brown sugar. I just bought a new package apples & cinnamon, low sugar. 110 calories a packet. I usually eat the oatmeal without milk.

    My favorite oatmeal is longer cooking or oat groats, with cinnamon, 1/4 cup chopped raisins cooked in with the oats so it sweetens it, and 1oz of diced almonds on top. I find this will hold me until lunch with no cravings for snacks...

    huh? You don't like the taste of wallpaper paste???? *weird* teehee

    I usually add 1/8 cup crasins.

    Banana and walnut is good too, if you have lots of extra calories.

    First, try making steel cut oats rather than rolled. They're less processed, so they have more tooth and a nuttier taste.

    Second, I usually stick with brown sugar. Honey and cinnamon are good. So are almonds or walnuts.
