Singing the praises of Oatmeal

Since its been well below zero a hot warm breakfast is the best way to start out the day. Oatmeal, what better fuel for the body. Pared with walnuts, my all time favorite or with any fresh or dried fruit with a nut. Every morning Chris, my sisters dog, and I have oatmeal, if I didn't share some with him he would whine until I give in and give him some. We have since shared oatmeal almost every morning for the past 8 years. Oatmeal has the stick to your ribs feeling until noon. You seem to be less hungry due to the fact that its high in protein. Protein makes you feel fuller, coupled with a high fiber just makes you feel good. If your on a tight budge oat meal is the way to go,its more cost effective than the store's instant brand and a lot less sugar too. It breaks down to about 12 cents a bowl. You can make it as healthy as you want. I figure for less than a $1.00 a day I can have a pretty decent breakfast. Compared to what I used to have, it was $5.00 a day, times 5 days would come out to $25 a week. I was shocked at what I was spending. Now its back to the oatmeal, and feeling better. Here is how I make my oatmeal 1/2 C oat meal 1 cup water 1 cap full of vanilla 1 table spoon of walnuts 1 table spoon of diced dates Vietnamese Cinnamon to taste Cook for a minute and forty five seconds.
