Here's what I do...

1. 1 cup of plain oats + 1.5-1.75 cups of water.
2. Microwave on high for 2 minutes.
3. Add 2 scoops of vanilla protein powder. Mix in well.
4. Microwave on high for 30-60 seconds, depending on how you like them.

Experiment...

Oh, and I add lots of splenda too. Needs to be nice and sweet.

Providing you have a blender, just throw some in.

Throw them in a blender with the rest of the ingredients. For me, it's lots of whey protein powder, two tablespoons of flax oil, half a cup of frozen blueberries, half a cup dry oatmeal, a cup of water and a teaspoon of cinnamon.

The oatmeal gives the shake a nice texture. Just make sure that you blend it for a minute or more, not just a pulse or the oatmeal won't disintegrate and the shake will be too thick.

I like adding some peanuts to my oatmeal.

For the 1-minute quacker oats, just heat up 12-oz of water by boiling or heating for 2-3 minutes in the microwave. Add the water to 1 cup of oats with cinnamon. let cool and add in sweeteners. EAT!
