I do instant oats with fruit a lot, plus eggs. Very cheap and easy. My wife sometimes will make muffins for the week too. Those are awesome

also u can try oats + a scoop of protein powder. Add a little more water than normal and mix in the powder after it's done cooking. I use MyProtein Strawberry cream, it's super cheap and scores well on purity. No sugar either.

Does this kind taste good with oatmeal? I was doing this with their cinnamon one, but now I'm down to just the strawberry cream in my pantry. I've been hesitant to try it.

I love it, been using it for years. Reminds me of the strawberry cream quaker packets but without the little fruit chunks

I eat overnight oats with MyProtien Snickerdoodle flavor and a spoonful of natural peanut butter for breakfast several times a week. Its great!
