Jazzed Up Oatmeal Power Meal

This is a great start to the day or as a power lunch. I make simple oatmeal and add the following items for a quick meal.

• Oatmeal
• Ground Flax Seed
• Brown Sugar
• Cinnamon
• Vanilla
• Banana - sliced
• Chopped pecans or walnuts
• Splenda
• Milk
  

Make desired amount of oatmeal following given directions, I add the ground flax seed with the oatmeal, about a heaping TBLS. When oatmeal is just to boiling mix it a TBLS or so of brown sugar and sprinkle of cinnamon. When you remove from heat add vanilla then, a 1/2-1 tsp to taste, stir.


Transfer to bowl and garnish with any and all the toppings. I finish with a sprinkle of Splenda and about 1/2 cup of milk.

That was good!!!
