what do you add to make it taste better? I've been putting it off because I find it disgusting (unless it's the instant flavored stuff, but I heard that's not as effective). So what do you put in it to make it taste good?

i am the same way, I hated oatmeal for the longest time. But when i got home from the hosp with LO my mom started making it for me. She squeezes pancake syrup into it to make it a bit sweeter. I also add raisins, they don't so much help with the taste, but it makes it more enjoyable.

With the syrup, it's actually become one of my favorite things to eat! )

Brown sugar and sometimes chopped walnuts.

The instant stuff works just as good - trust me! I just get Quaker Maple Brown Sugar. Also, starbucks sells oatmeal and you can get the packets of nuts, raisins, and brown sugar - very good! I say put whatever you want into it. I hate bland oatmeal.

I really don't care that much for oatmeal either but I love the starbucks oatmeal with all of that fruit and nuts!

Baked Oatmeal....delicious!

3 cups oats, 1 cup brown sugar, 2 tsp cinnamon, 2 tsp baking powder, 1 tsp salt - mix together

add 1 cup milk, 2 eggs, 1/4 cup melted butter, 2 tsp vanilla

optional: add favorite fruit (apples, raisins, cranberrys...)

bake at 350 for 35-40 min.

I make this on Monday and eat if for breakfast for the week.

Almond butter or peanut butter and some mixed frozen fruit (cooked with the oatmeal of course!). And I always sprinkle some raw sugar on top

I like to add coconut and raisins, sprinkled with cinnamon.

I usually make steel cut oatmeal but I used to eat a lot of regular old fashioned rolled oats.

blueberries, brown sugar, flaxseed meal

dried cranberries, brown sugar, flaxseed meal

microwaved diced apples, brown sugar, flaxseed meal

A scoop of almond butter and a small scoop of pumpkin butter

My 3yr old loves putting maple syrup on his oatmeal instead of brown sugar.

PPs have great ideas but if you are really hooked on the instant kind, make a bowl of instant and add in 1/4 cup of whole oats with 1/4 cup or so of extra water! Extra fiber, same flavor
