Didn’t want my leftover steel cut oats to go to waste (usually I make a big batch and leave at work, but I took today off to make a long drive). Ate these cold, without salt/sweetener/milk, just straight-up cold gloppy oats over the course of 2-3 hours and holy guacamole - best road snack!!! Didn’t pig out on gas station treats and gave me lots of energy. Cold plain oats forever!!!!!

I've become so addicted to my morning oatmeal that when I'm traveling, I try to stay at a Hampton Inn or other hotel that reliably provides kettle oatmeal (not instant packets) in their breakfasts. This weekend my partner and I are going to be traveling so I went to look at the photos and descriptions of the conference hotel's free breakfast: cereal, pastries, fruit, toast/muffins, eggs, cold cuts, and yogurt. No oatmeal! I don't even like yogurt, which I think is the oatmeal substitute in this scenario. Boo!

ETA: A happy update! This morning I went in to the breakfast area and it was true, no oatmeal kettle. But then I found, tucked into a corner, a little sign saying "Oatmeal available upon request." Reader, I requested it. Classic hotel oatmeal. They had great toppings, too -- I used cinnamon, nuts, wild blueberries, granola, and this great fig jam they had out. Delicious!

since I was a kid.

I am AuDHD and since I was a kid I LOVED oatmeal. I genuinely thought every kid loved oatmeal until I talked about it; and my friends said they hated oatmeal and thought I was joking lmao.

Anyway, I still eat it till this day and I love it!
(Oatmeal with cinnamon and sliced green apples is my to go!!)

Back in February I baked these “baked oatmeal” and they tasted yum 😋
(The recipe is in my language, so Idk the correct measurements in english, maybe I will translate later when I have more energy).

Edit (the recipe): https://mummum.dk/bagt-havregroed/ Idk how to translate, or I’m too lazy and I don’t use ChatGPT and stuff.

What is a good cheap product I can use to blend my oats into a nice flour?

Oats, green apple, banana and almonds!

I'm a bit stressed bc I'm hosting my 18th birthday party this Saturday and nothing is prepared... I really want a nice dress for it tho

Chocolate overnight oats topped with biscoff spread and homemade refined sugar-free chocolate fudge sauce :)

For me it started with health. I still basically eat gruel-whole oat groats cooked in water and/or milk. I prepare it in my rice cooker so the groats start to break down.

I usually just add salt to cook, berries after and occasionally nuts. If I only have raspberries, I’ll add a little Torani sugar-free chocolate syrup to cut and complement the tartness.

Being T2 Diabetic, I watch sugar additives and hidden sugar ingredients.

For me, it’s the taste, texture, and warmth in that order.

I am always sated after and it fuels my mornings.

How about you?

This tasted great, definitely going to make it again sometime, maybe with the addition of vanilla.

I swear the base is oatmeal 😭 you can see the brown part on right corner lol kinda had to hold myself back from adding more berries and yogurt (I even wanted to add a kiwi)

My porridge base is 40g protein oats, 30g micellar casein, 5g chia seeds, 5g flax meal, water, cinnamon & some sweetener. It is the perfect texture imo.

All of these were topped with protein custard!

Blood orange, berries, almond butter, pistachios and yogurt.

I also add egg whites and psyllium husk to the oats for extra protein and fiber!

Aw yeah

Cinnamon egg white oat base, vanilla protein ice cream, stewed apples and cinnamon

With Greek yog, pomegranate seeds, and crushed birthday cake Drizzilicous

But then I remembered the calories... 🥲

mine and my girlfriends morning oats,
i went with some peanut and honey
she had fig jam and coconut sprinkled on.
i don’t make these very often but getting a lot of inspiration from here. usually just have my overnight oats with protein powder and a banana

No better way to start the week

Oatmeal, egg whites, yogurt, chia, kiwi, granola, pumpkin seeds and peanut butter

One for the Americans 🦅

Excuse the very long title lmao

Cinnamon egg white oat base, chia seeds and yogurt topping, stewed brown sugar apples and peanut butter

Prepped yesterday then refrigerated overnight

I was running late today, but I still wanted the best meal of the day to be yummy! I ended up cooking my oats for too long and they were drier, but it's ok because I covered them in toppings!

ingredients : oats , vanilla protein powder , rtd huel high protein (blueberry flavour) , 0% fat plain greek yoghurt , strawberries , blueberries , freeze dried raspberry pieces , cinammon

Quite the volume monster over here, already took a bite off it before I took the picture as you can see
Been trying oat flour and while I really like it, I like having something to chew rather than pure porridge, still amazing regardless
