Baconville 578 Posted June 1, 2014 Im not sure if i mentioned this before but if i didnt i have been remise. 2 words- Savory oatmeal Look up the recipes!!! Seriously its way healthy and a great quick meal you can cook at the beginning of the week. Oatmeal is no longer just for Breakfast.< /p> here is the one i have done twice and been very very hapy with Irish steel cut oatmeal onions whole cut mushrooms soy based bacon bits olive oil low sodium soy sage rosemary garlic salt to taste ( least bit possible) pepper Cook oatmeal seperate and use a butt load of onions and mushrooms saute the mess together and add to oatmeal as the last step. You can cut up chicken fish or turkey into it. i like mine cold but you can work out the serving temp on your own Look up other recipies they are wide and vast. next week im doing an asian oatmeal and following that a middle eastern one. low cal, low fat,full of fiber and filling..with chicken or fish you get the added protien Peace out skinny people Sounds GREAT! I have found Textured Vegetable Protein (TVP) by Bob's Red Mill. I use it instead of oatmeal. You get the fiber AND the protein. I use 1/3 cup in one cup of Water and boil it down, takes about 10 minutes. I add 1/4 of skim milk and it has 19 grams of protein. I like to add some splenda sweetened vanilla Syrup and cinnamon. But you could definitely use it for what you are making. I have been thinking fresh berries would also be good, but haven't tried it yet. Thanks for sharing the recipe. I am always looking for something different! Carol Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
