My fiance, who doesn't eat "green things" actually ate quite a large helping! Will definitely make again. Used a little extra onion then recipe called for.

This recipe was very much a hit in my family! My fiance is never quite sure about trying new recipes, but this one got rave reviews. All of our bowls were spotless after eating. The only thing I added was a bit of file powder.

To avoid burning my crockpot, I used a Reynolds turkey cooking bag and lined my crockpot with it. I made this for my husband's family and they loved it- even the avowed non-oatmeals eaters! Just because I love the spice with apples, I added cardamom to the spice mix. I tripled this recipe (I have a very large crockpot) and it held up just fine. The only thing I would do differently, when I enlarge the recipe is cut back on the cinnamon, because tripling that was way too much. I loved the combination of cranberry and nutmeg. This also reheated very very well-- after leaving my husband's family, the oatmeal sat for about and hour and half, before I plugged in the crockpot again at my parents, and it warmed back up delightfully.
