I cooked the oatmeal on the stove, added honey, flax meal, sliced almonds, almond milk, cinnamon, and nutmeg. For the first time I really enjoyed eating oatmeal for breakfast. Thank you for the idea!

Great for recipe while breastfeeding. Oatmeal is good for lactation. I did not have wheat germ so I omitted, but will next time. I used seeds instead of oil.This is my first time using soy milk since I cannot use regular milk while breastfeeding. I was a little scared of the taste because of the soy milk and this recipe not using sugar. I was surprised that the honey did the job.

This was very bland. I tried adding cinnamon and nutmeg, but it didn't seem to help. Won't make this again.

Great recipe but I use steel cut oats which are much better for you. I cook 1 cup oats to 4 cups water, once a week. Each day I take out the amount I want, zap it and add all the goodies. It's the best - ask Oprah!

I eat this almost every morning. I use 1/3 c. oatmeal and about 3/4 c water because instead of flaxseed oil, I add about 2T ground flaxseed meal and sometimes throw in some cinnamon and raisins. I always cook it in the microwave for 6 min. at 50% power. Delish!

This makes a lot of oatmeal. Next time I will not use 1/4 cup of skim milk (it made it runny). And will just add enough milk to my liking. You can add maple syrup or whatever flavor you are after that day.

This was pretty good. I didn't have flaxseed oil, I used a tablespoon of ground flax seed and just added an extra tbsp. of liquid. I used organic apple cider instead of plain water, I stirred in a half teaspoon of homemade apple pie spice and I stirred in 1 tbsp. organic honey before eating. I don't drink soy milk so I used nonfat milk. This was quite a filling breakfast. The great thing about oatmeal for breakfast is it can be different every time so play around and use whichever liquid/stir in's that sound best for you!

Great recipe - I added some cinnamon, nutmeg, and a dash of vanilla extract. Instead of topping it with soy milk, I topped it with a huge spoonful of fat free honey flavored organic greek yogurt. This was very filling and very healthy.
