Thanks! This sounds delicious - and nutritious! And perfect timing. I'm trying to get back on track. Just wondering if everyone can benefit from adding protein powder or if there are times when it might not be a good idea...

hmmm. i sooo need to be more of an oatmeal person. this recipe does sound like it has potential to taste good. 
tee hee hee!! and it seems simple enough to make. i can do this. i can!! and i do have a bunch of soy protein. use it for protein shakes. i'm assuming that will work for this, too? okay, i'll give it a go, Jman!! Debi, you first though, my sista! it's my personal challenge to you!! LOL!! 
(pm me with those results, kay? tee hee hee!)

Frisky - this is actually right up my alley. I like oatmeal - I usually make mine with skim milk and I love cinnamon - I know I have blueberries in the freezer... I just need to get some protein powder and almonds. So much nutrition in one bowl!!! Gotta love it. Tomorrow morning. Deal?

Good morning ladies.....I'm with Frisky....never been much of a oatmeal person but with almonds, blueberries and cinnamin......it does sound sweet .....and fast....just what I need. Can I use whey powder? Is that a protein? I think that's what I have at home.....

okay Frisky - I am eating my oatmeal - minus the almonds - and with only virtual protein powder - it's very good. I would not have thought of blueberries and cinnamon together but I really like it. Being the sugar junkie that I am I was tempted at first to add some sugar but after a few bites - I don't need it! This will be a regular on my breakfast table! Thanks Jessie!

I have oat meal every morning with flax seed and cinnamon and raisins and eat them while Im driving to work. That takes care of my morning breakfast (which I never ate before). Then Ill snack on something lite around 10ish.
Jessie... you said health benefits for Cinnamon. What are the benefits?

hmmm. made the oatmeal. and i think i have successfully answered my own question about the soy protein. yeah, it was... well....not.good. that's a negative on the soy protein people. and i doubt i was supposed to use cinnamon sugar, true? yeah, this whole experiment has inspired me to start a new topic: are artificial sweeteners okay?? LOL!!
seriously, though. i'm going right now to start it...

I tried this for breakfast this morning...followed the recipe. Even with blueberries in every bite, it still wasn't sweet enough for my taste. I didn't have the two sweetners you mentioned in the other discussion (agave or stevia), so I sprinkled some Splenda on it. I didn't put too much on....and I realized no matter how much other stuff you put on it, at the bottom it's still going to be oatmeal. General Mills makes a cereal called Oatmeal Crisp with almond slices....it's really good and that's probably as close to oatmeal that I'm going to get. Thanks for the recipe, I'm glad I tried it.. One good thing though..I've added blueberries to my diet..I love them!

I personally enjoy steel cut oats and have found that fresh cut bananas go a long way. If you can't cook your own, try Jamba Juice's; if there is one in your area.
