Instant oatmeal

[Orange24]

This weekend wife and I are house sitting. Plenty of eggs and oatmeal for breakfast.

Any of you guys eat this stuff? Lots of carbs. Not TOO much sugar...its delicious. I eat regular oatmeal but this sure was easy!

I stick to old school original oatmeal with honey and protein powder.

[Vicious 13]

I always have some for when I'm in a hurry in the mornings it is delicious

I don't cook my oats. Always instant lol. just add water, cinnamon, fruit. I eat them raw like a horse lol.

Re: Instant oatmeal

I prefer rolled oats. Instant anything isn't as good for you but you also need to have the time to cook things the old fashioned way. Instant oats beats a lot of what others eat out there.

Re: Instant oatmeal

Old fashion is the way to go.. and cooking time .. that is a piece of cake with the microwave.
pour oats and water in bowl...4.5 - 5 minutes at 50% , done before my egg whites...
also a protein scoop is great 1/4 cup measurement..
try to start my day every day like that ..

I like the thicker cut, slow cook, but instant oats are a lot better than some garbage out there...

yeah I am not dis'ng quick oat ... I also just prefer the more meatier old fashion oatmeal .. the finer it is the more mushy . instant can have sugar added ...I have tried steel cut... that is chewie and hardy, and not very tasty.

I remember growing up..Mom's Meatloaf was made with oatmeal ,right off the Oatmeal box .. one day she was out of oatmeal , and used Oat Bran.. oh boy that sucker was dry ..a little varnish and it would make a nice door stop...LOL

^^^lol.

they taste good. I used to eat the shit out of the maple brown sugar ones.

I like rolled oats raw with blueberries way better now. I must be getting old lol. I have to fight my 1 yr old off for it every morning lol. it's fun to feed her as I eat. I'm glad she likes oats and fruit at a young age.

I eat rolled oats almost everyday with a little bit of cinnamon and 1/4c of raisins.
