Oatmeal

Have you tried other hot cereals? Cream of wheat, corn meal, and best
of all....Red River cereal...I actually like these three better than
oatmeal if I can't load them up with other stuff like fruit. Red
River
is great on its own.

Never heard of putting butter on hot cereal. I just put milk and if
I'm
spurging, some brown sugar. Okay, so REALLY splurging would be cereal
cream instead of milk.

the best way to do up cooked oats is with evaporated milk, brown sugar,
raisins, and butter.

but that's not how i do it (anymore). i just use two splendas and some
golden raisins.

Also try steel cut oats, they have more flavor & when you want
something different instead of a bowl of oatmeal, try making a pancake
out of it:

3/4 cup Oatmeal(Quick Cooking for thin pancakes, Old Fashioned for
thick pancakes)
5 Egg Whites & 1 whole egg
1 cup of Fat Free Cottage Cheese
1 tsp vanilla
1-2 packets of Equal/Splenda sweetner with a sprinkle of cinnimon to
taste
Mix all ingredients together in a blender until smooth.
For fluffier pancakes reduce the amount of oatmeal.

Or you can oatmeal to make some bars too:

1/2 cup quick oats
1 1/2 cup chocolate protein powder
1/4 cup natural peanut butter
1 cup skim milk powder
1/2 c. seedless raisins
Mix all ingredients together in a bowl & add enough water to make a
stiff dough. Use hands to mix well as its quite sticky. Spray an 8x8
inch cake pan with Pam & press dough in evenly. Refrigerate a couple of
hours and then cut into 12 bars. Wrap individual bars in cellophane and
store in refrigerator. 1 bar is about 16 grams each carbs/protein,
3grams fat, approx 166 calories each.

I was really puzzled by your response until I read the headers on the
post. Who else could it be!!

I would have to agree, plain oats and milk are also very good.

do it the Scottish way. Take some oatmeal in a cup. Add boiling
water. Eat with cream. Bad for the figure but wonderful for the taste
buds.
