I've always been a cereal girl, but we're out of milk. There are no eggs to scramble or to make french toast, and I made waffles for dinner last night on my way out the door.
What to do? Payday is tomorrow, and hence grocery shopping day.Undaunted, I rooted around in the pantry to find something to whip together.
Who else did I find, but an old friend--it was Oatmeal to the rescue!
I'm a bit old-school and like the oats to be in a can or bag (See Bob's Red Mill), and I like to cook it over the stove.
After cooking/during cooling on the stove, I add raisins, a dash of brown sugar, and a pinch of cinnamon.
I plate it, add cream and whatever I have handy (mixed nuts in this case) and a drizzle of syrup.
It was perfect on this cool/rainy morning.
Three cheers for captain oatmeal!
I buy all things Bob. They're flour and oats are great.
ReplyDeleteThey have a cookbook, too, for unconventional breads and such. I have it, just haven't tried much out of it.
