Also to add to my other post, you could also add (where appropriate) "smart Balance" butter with Flax oil, for some good flavor and good fats.

| | | I'll be having my steel oats tomorrow morning. I cook it in water because I can't spend the time to boil milk and will add some protein powder to it. |

| | Plain oatmeal sounds DIVINE right now to this hungry girl. To bed for me.  I could eat oats sprinkled with wood chips right about now. |

One little trick that I use with the quick-cook style (nutritionally identical to the slow-cook kind) is to used powdered non-fat milk (also nutritionally identical).
1/4 cu. oats
1/3 cu. dry milk
1 cu. water
Mix it all together really well and use the microwave. Done in less than 5 minutes. |

I get the water boiling, add the oats, turn down the heat and let them cook while i shave, shower and get dressed. i start to prep my lunch after and by then they are done.
Added 1/4 cup milk post cooking with the protein powder to them. Yum!. |
