Excellent easy fast breakfast. Tasty way to get beneficial flaxseed oil. I added 1 Tablespoon of dried fruit bits and used vanilla soy milk. This recipe is good AND good for you too!

I tried this recipe for the first time yesterday and liked it so much I had it again for breakfast this morning. This breakfast is suprisingly filling. A big plus to this recipe is that it is quick to make and it's easy to clean up afterward. It's healthy too.

This oatmeal really is super good! I eat it every morning and it keeps me full from 5:30 in the morning until noon! But I normally omit the soymilk.

I can never eat plain oatmeal again! My husband loves this recipe as is. I usually omit the honey and add a shake of cinnamon and sometimes some raisins. Love it!

This was delicious! I also suggest adding a tablespoon or two of flaxseeds. It gives it a nutty crunch, plus Omega 3 fatty acids.

Great recipe. Very easy to make this one your own. I added a few sprinkles of cinnamon and nutmeg, 1/2 tsp of brown sugar, and about 15 raisins. Hmmm, Hmmm good!

If you don't normally like oatmeal, you probably won't like this recipe either. For me, it isdelicious, and the wheat germ provides a wonderful texture. Use the honey at your discretion. I only use 1.5 teaspoons. This is the only way I make oatmeal now. Thanks.

Good recipe- just watch the times on your microwave. Mine was almost too done by 3 minutes. I have flax seed meal but no oil, so I used that instead, and regular skim milk. Also added a little pure maple syrup in place of some of the honey. Good and healthy! I had some fresh peaches and skim milk with this for a good filling breakfast.

This is a good base recipe, but I have had to make some changes to suit my personal tastes. My biggest problem is the flaxseed oil... it does not combine well and looks oily. Not very appetizing. So I used ground flaxseed. I also use skim milk instead of soy, since I don't like soy. Otherwise, this is certainly a good way to make oatmeal even healthier!
