I hope everyone had a lovely weekend!  I apologize for my lack of oats posting — the weather go the best of me!  However, I am going to share with you a delicious recipe that made my Friday fantastic and fabulous (and fruity!).  If you have a bowl of these berry oats, you can’t go wrong!

1/2 cup, quick-cooking whole grain oats

dash cinnamon

*optional: sweetener of choice (i.e. packet of stevia)

Directions:

Pour oats into a microwave-safe bowl.  Add water (or milk if you want a richer flavor).  Microwave on high for two minutes, letting sit in the microwave for at least 30 seconds.  Stir oats.
