Fast Food: Oatmeal

Time it takes for me to make oatmeal for my kids' breakfast:
4 minutes.




That beats waiting in the drive-thru anyday.

Super-De-Duper Fast Oatmeal
2 cups of rolled oats
skim milk
cinnamon
vanilla

Put the oats in a microwavable bowl, then pour enough skim milk on it to have the oats slightly floating (or swimming as my kids observed).  Sprinkle on some cinnamon, a teaspoon or so of vanilla.  Zap in the microwave for 4 minutes.  Take out of the microwave and add more milk if needed until it is the desired consistency.

Serves 3-4 hungry kids.

Done!

What do you put in it? I put rolled oats, milk, raisins and alot of cinnamon in mine... but not sure what others do!

I also add applesauce (especially if it is cold from the fridge) and frozen berries. That cools it down right away. Yum!

LOVE easy oatmeal--my girls eat that...i never really buy regular "cereal"--they get eggs or oatmeal or cream of wheat as their choices.

we are boring and just use water, then add milk and LITTLE bit of brown sugar.
