What can i add to my oatmeal

[hjohnson050711]

so i have added organic instant oatmeal to my breakfast routine and i put a few blueberries in it but it is sooo bland. what can i add to make it a little sweeter? would honey do the trick?

[shorty20]

I often put honey, ground flaxseed, cinnamon, and even a little peanut butter in mine.

I use brown sugar (1tbsp) or brown sugar splenda blend. Other sweeteners that work are agave, honey, peanut butter, and a handful (I have small hands!) of dark chocolate chips.

When I make steel cut oats, I like to mix in a little bit of brown sugar, raisins and soy milk.

I like to put vanilla protein powder, blueberries, and almond milk in mine.

Using almond milk is a good idea, since it's on the sweet side. I love oatmeal. I eat it all the time. Some of my favorite combo's-
-chunky peanut butter and banana
-raisins, dates, and some pure maple syrup
-pumpkin puree, brown sugar, pumpkin pie spice
-walnuts and a few chocolate chips
-blueberries and slivered almonds and some cardamom

I either add honey or real maple syrup. Especially with blueberries, I love the maple syrup!

My short on time morning routine - peel and dice a small apple, microwave for 1.5-2 minutes, add dry instant oatmeal, some raisins, cinnamon and milk - stir. 2 minutes in the microwave. Then 2 minutes in microwave for 2 pcs turkey bacon and I'm full for hours.

really yummy ideas - thanks! who knew oatmeal could be so exciting

[bluelikejazz]

I eat mine the same every morning:
2 tsps brown sugar, cinnamon, a small handful of craisins, and a spoonful of peanut butter.

I like mine with 2 tsp. dark brown sugar or some dark chocolate chips (they melt and get gooey). I also like fruit.

I eat my oatmeal a couple ways, my faves are:
W/ dried cranberries and either walnuts/almonds/or cashews
W/ vanilla almond milk, cinnamon, natural crunchy pb, and banana

[SuziSaysDa]

My morning oatmeal has - plain oat, ground flax, chia seeds, dried goji berries, blueberries, and walnuts. I replace the blueberries with whatever is in season, I have added strawberries right now, in the winter I will do dried cranberries or sometimes frozen berries. I use enough fruit so I can avoid adding sugar.

[keweenawlove]

My current combo is raspberries, almonds, and vanilla.

I usually chop up an apple, some dried cranberries, little brown sugar, cinnamon and some chopped walnuts.
