    I would have never thought to make my own instant oatmeal. Great idea for a quick meal. Sooo much cheaper than buying the packets. I need to work on a strawberry and cream version. Yummo!

      @R4chc0mp Před 5 měsíci

      also, for the flavor, use coffee creamer and brown sugar not white. the flavor of make-your-own is pretty different, so thats the closest I've gotten

    What a great idea!! I’m not a big oatmeal eater…but my husband loves it, and they are full of sugar and a bunch of chemicals and junk (and yes, expensive!) I’m gonna make up a jar for him with his favorite flavors! He’ll appreciate that a lot more than me saying “you know how bad that is for you…we have regular oatmeal in the pantry” 👀…. I do the same thing with yogurt for myself. Regular fruit yogurt has TONS of sugar in it!! It’s crazy! I get a large container (or the single servings, they are convenient) of Plain Greek yogurt (I prefer the texture of the Greek…it doesn’t matter) and add sugar free Jello powder or sugar free Torani syrup (along with some Splenda, depending on sourness) and voila! Your favorite flavor of yogurt. (You could put fruit in it, too, but I’m not a big fruit person.) So, 100 calorie pack of yogurt stays 100 calories (and with the only carbs/sugars coming naturally from the yogurt.) Want a mocha coffee? Drop some chocolate chips into the cup! Just a little prep, or an extra 30 seconds, and you can have really tasty things that are good for you (and less expensive…and they taste better! Okay…I will admit, sometimes you NEED the Kraft Mac n Cheese, or the Captain Crunch…mental health via some comfort food from time to time is a good thing. As Julia Child said, “Everything in moderation…including moderation.” 😁)

    Great idea Carolina to make it yourself at home. Thanks for the base recipe. It's a terrible thing when you have white chocolate that needs to be used up! That looked like a good combo with the blueberries. I like to eat mine best with brown sugar and some fruit like sliced fresh ripe strawberries when they're in season!

    Hello Carolina i think my favorite flavor is apple and cinnamon and i throw some golden raisins and pecans for a little extra extra.

  • @countrymousesfarmhouse497

    So good. We do similar but put it in a container with the measuring cup and really easy instructions written when my Bigs were younger. When my eldest daughter was learning to make breakfasts , her instant porridge was old fashioned oats done like instant. Her brothers thought it was fantastic, so she made them brekkie a lot 😂😂the old fashioned oats were still raw really , but hot . They didn't care and she was proud that they liked her creation. Lol. My favourite flavour is lamington, we make porridge and add maple syrup, desiccated coconut and cocoa . Soooo good but mostly I have just brown sugar and always eat mine with a piece of toast and Vegemite. Sweet mouthful, salty mouthful and repeat . Delicious. Always with plenty of good tea . Thank you for sharing lovely ❤

    I like to eat porridge but not sweet, so sugar is a hard no for me. I usually eat it forst thing in the morning and it needs to settle my stomach. I make eat with plant based milk in a microwave. I add some extra fibre and ground seeds and fruit mix, like flax seed, chia, goji berries. Never heard about adding butter. I tried it with fresh fruit but it's not for me, I like them separate 🤪

      1 cup of brown sugar for 15-20 packets is not much. Raisins are natural sugars not artificial and she added only a tablespoon. She is fine.
