On the subject of oatmeal for breakfast, a couple of questions.
1. Instant or Regular and does it matter?
2. What do you flavor your oatmeal with? I grew up on butter, sugar,
and milk, but somehow that just doesn't seem like a good plan
these days!!! (lol)
Thanks for your answers.

Sun, October 21, 2007 - 8:36 AMIf you've got the time, steel-cut is the best, otherwise rolled (not instant) if you must.
I've had much success with poaching dried fruit in just a little more water than I'll need to make the oatmeal, adding the oatmeal at the end. Trader Joe's may still have their chopped dried fruit mix that works very well for this.

Mon, October 22, 2007 - 6:44 PMI have oatmeal at work everyday for breakfast. Yogurt and fresh pineapple chunks on the bottom of the bowl, then a layer of oatmeal, topped with crushed nuts. I look forward to this everyday.

Tue, October 23, 2007 - 10:57 PMI use regular, don't like the instant... I think it tastes funny.
I flavor with shaved Mexican chocolate (Ibarra brand) Not a lot, though... mmmm, think I'll go make some oatmeal.
Also - steel cut oats. I cook them overnight in a mini-crockpot so they're ready for me in the morning.

Sat, February 16, 2008 - 8:14 AMI know this is an older topic, but I just joined this group. I have been eating the Weight Control instant oatmeal for a few months now, and I am happy with my weight-loss resu lts. The great thing about this product is they come in various flavors that fit different tastes. I add just a little bit of milk to mine.
