This is a healthy cherry version of oatmeal...frankly, I am a fan! Ingredients:
1 cup water |
1/2 cup quick oats |
1/16 teaspoon salt |
1/8 cup dried cherries |
1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract |
1 tablespoon cherry jam |
1/8 cup low-fat milk |
2 tablespoons flax seeds (optional) |
Directions:
1. Put water, oats, salt and cherries into a medium sized saucepan. Bring to a boil, reduce the heat and simmer for about 5 minutes for Old Fashioned Oats, or 1 minute for Quick Cooking Oats. Remove from heat. Stir in the vanilla extract and cherry jam. Put into serving bowls and pour 2 tablespoons of milk over each bowl. Personally, I add the flaxseed for an extra oomph! |
