RE: Recipes Using Oatmeal Post By Sam (Guest Post) (12/02/2006) I am sure glad to have come across this, I have a huge container of the old-fashioned oats and didn't have a clue what to do with them. Thanks everyone!

Put 1 cup dried oatmeal into mixing bowl. Put 1 cup warm water over oatmeal. Stir & Set aside. Boil potatoes as usual for mashed potatoes. While boiling,heat, low fat EVAPORATED milk, butter, and salt in microwave, until butter melts. Drain potatos,and start mashing,while alternating small amounts of microwaved mixture & oatmeal water mixture,until you get the consistancy you want. I through in a couple GLOBS of the oatmeal mush too. They will never know,this doesn't change the flavor or the texture at all.

Add: 1/2 c oatmeal 1 egg dash pepper 2-6 T of chopped onion (to taste) dash of milk dash of lemon juice if you have it Form into patties and fry in olive oil till browned. Cheap olive oil has less flavor so is best for this.
