I love oatmeal and I try to eat it at least 4x a week due to the many health benefits and the easiness of making oatmeal (since I’m not a morning person).
Growing up, oatmeal was a staple at my house and it was usually made the same. My parents cooked it with water and then eaten it with raisins, milk, and sometimes vegetarian meat like links. (We weren’t allowed to add sugar, but sometimes I sneaked in syrup into my oatmeal 🙂
Now living with my husband, I’ve experimented so many ways of eating oatmeal like this recipe and I’m excited to share you different variation of oatmeal in the future!
