Health Nut Oatmeal - cooking recipe
Ingredients
-
3 cups old fashioned oats (not instant)
3 cups low-fat milk (cow, almond, rice or soy)
1/3 - 1/2 cup honey (or 1/2 cup brown sugar)
1 cup dried cranberries
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 cup flax seed meal
1/2 cup toasted unsalted sunflower seeds
1/2 cup grape nuts cereal (or cereal of choice)
Preparation
-
Mix the oatmeal, milk, and 4 cups of water in a large, deep saucepan and bring to a boil over medium high heat. When it boils, quickly lower heat to very low. Stir in brown sugar, dried cranberries, flaxseed meal, sunflower seeds and salt. Cook at a low simmer for 15-20 minutes, or until very thick and creamy.
Stir often to prevent burning.
Serve with additional milk and sprinkle with a tablespoon of the Grape nuts cereal if desired, or cool and refrigerate to reheat later in the week.
