oatmeal

[76ers#3]

I've been buying the Quaker Quick Oats. When I first bought them I compared the label with the regular Quaker oatmeal. No difference. Why are some people saying stay away from the instant, or in this case quick, oats? There isn't any sugar, so what's the problem?

Clarification...

I should have been more specific. I was refering to the Prepackaged Instant Oatmeal. You know, the flavored stuff, like Apple Cinnamon, etc... Not the Instant Quaker Oats..

No problem, Ronin. Just wanted to be sure I was buying the right stuff.

Great recipe for oatmeal and it tastes like French toast

1/4 cup dry oatmeal
4 egg whites
cinammon

nuke these in the microwave with hot water, stirring half way through
after about 45 seconds and then do another 45 seconds.

Then add 1/4 cup of natural unsweetened applesauce, stir it in and add some artificial sweetner if you like it sweeter.

Taste great
Yields are: Cals 165, Pr 17,Carb21,Fat1

You can adjust the egg whites to get more protein if you want or more oatmeal for more carbs.
ENJOY!!
