Oatmeal Instead of Cold Cereal

RE: Oatmeal Instead of Cold Cereal By camo_angels (600) Profile Contact We buy the quick oats for baking and "quick" hot cereal. My little boys eat them with applesauce and cinnamon sugar (Oatmeal apple pie) I try bananas, but won't do it! I like just brown sugar. We bought the 5 minute rolled oats, but couldn't get through them fast enough, so we made granola bars!

It holds the kids over longer than cereal and is alot cheaper and cooks in about 3 minutes.

He adds milk and raisans or dried cherries or whatever. He is going organic. I haven't tried it because of a health issue but he says it is good. Bet it makes a good roughage.

Just pour it into a bowl, add water or milk & microwave for 1 minute. Usually add a little more water than you think you need so the oatmeal isn't too thick. If you want to flavor the oatmeal it is easy to add some brown sugar or maple syrup to the quick oats, yum. There are other flavorings that could be added: jam/jelly, cinnamon, small dried fruit, mashed banana, chunks of apple, etc. Posted on 01/24/2006 | Report Spam or Abuse RE: Oatmeal Instead of Cold Cereal By Hcaham (1) Contact Great choice. For the past couple years our preferred cereal went from Oatmeal to steamed Hulled Oats. We found excellent information by Diane Mirkin on Dr. Mirkin's website. Very easily done. We purchase organic hulled oats from the natural foods store and steam them for about 55+- minutes using our electric steamer. We consider them to be the gourmet of the 'Oat' :-) Many times I make a large quantitiy in advance and store them in the fridge or freezer.
