Easy recipe for Oatmeal


You are probably thinking, who needs a recipe for Oatmeal.
Majority of the people I talk about oatmeal, don't care for it and just think of it as a goupy soupy paste.
I was one of those people too and thanks to my friend (aka White Mom), Ginger Steele, I have been making Oatmeal the right way and having it every morning for more than 2 years now. And to top it off it has been great for my cholestrol too.
Following is the recipe. First step is to toss the recipe behind the box and follow these instructions precisely.
Equal parts water and Old fashioned Quaker Oats (I use half cup each)
  • In a small sauce pan, boil the water by itself with the lid on
  • Let it boil till it is really BOILING
  • Then dump the 1/2 cup oatmeal in it and put lid back on
  • The oatmeal will now rise to the top of the pan
  • Uncover for a second and put lid on again for the second time let it rise to the top again
  • Now remove from heat and leave it covered for 3 minutes
  • Perfect oatmeal with great texture and none of that soupy mess.
My favorite toppings are crasins, walnuts with agave.

What is your favorite breakfast??? Post in the comments below

I like an egg and toast for breakfast, but I can't eat that everyday. Oatmeal is also a fave so thank you for the cooking tip. I am going to give it a try tomorrow. Craisins are delicious in oatmeal... I like a little brown sugar & cinnamon too.
