A delicious, thick bowl of oatmeal that will make you wake up hungry every morning. Ingredients:
3/4 cup quick oats |
1 cup milk |
1 large egg |
1/2 cup cottage cheese |
1/2 cup berries (optional) or 1/2 cup mashed bananas (optional) or 1/2 cup raisins (optional) or 1/2 cup canned pumpkin (optional) or 1/2 cup chopped fruit (optional) |
2 tablespoons sugar (brown sugar is nice instead, and splenda works too to keep it healthy) |
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon |
1/8 teaspoon nutmeg |
1/2 teaspoon vanilla |
2 tablespoons sliced almonds (optional) or 2 tablespoons chopped pecans (optional) or 2 tablespoons chopped walnuts (optional) |
Directions:
1. In a microwave-safe bowl, lightly beat the egg and add the oats, milk, fruit, sugar, and cottage cheese.
2. Stir well then microwave on high for 2 minutes.
3. Stir well again and microwave for another minute.
4. Keep repeating stirring and microwaving at 1 minute intervals atleast 3 times, until oatmeal becomes thick or to desired consistency. (I like mine really thick, almost pudding-like).
5. Remove and add vanilla, nuts, cinnamon, and nutmeg. (A few dashes of fround ginger and/or cloves is good too if you want to change it up).
6. Stir and enjoy!
