    I LOVE oatmeal. I typically mix mine with unsweetened vanilla almond milk, couple tsp of natural peanut butter, and 1/2 banana. Sometimes if I'm in a rush I just do 1 tbsp of peanut butter and a tsp of maple syrup...mmmm this is making me want some right now lol

    I have just jumped on the oatmeal bandwagon. I make mine at work, I use 1/2C quick oats and a packet of stevia in the raw, and then after done microwaving, i add 1/8C - 1/4C of dried fruit, any kind. I have used the antioxidant blends, mixed fruit chunks, and craisins. I have also gotten a tropical blend that I want to try, just havent yet. You get the fullness of the oatmeal, and the sweet of the fruit. Super yummy!

    Overnight Oatmeal...you don't cook it you use raw old fashioned oats and they cook overnight in the milk and it turns out to be like a pudding texture...i LOVE it.

    I have been eating the banana cocoa one and I'm trying the Mango Almond one tomorrow for bfast. I seriously love them. lol

    Nope, no need for cooking! The oatmeal just soaks up all the liquid overnight and in the morning you have the most amazing textured oatmeal! :)

    I mix the oats up with some bran and flax meal, some mueglin (sp?) and then toss a handful of it in a bowl with some kashi island vanilla cereal. Add Greek Yogurt and some chocolate protein and you have a delicious (extremely) high fiber and protein breakfast. 500 calories, 40 some grams of Protein, and 35 ish grams of fiber. Makes my whole day better.

    1/2 oatmeal in 1 cup of water, overnight-cover
    cook oatmeal until desired tenderness, add sliced ripe banana for sweetness with 1/4 cup sliced fresh strawberries, 1/8 cup Almond milk. Along with this, I have one slice Ezekiel bread with PB. Very filling and satsifies me until lunch. Low in fat with lots of protein!
