    Why buy instant???

    Rated: 5 stars out of 5
    It is SO, so simple...it really is. I'm one of those folks that MUST have a recipe in front of me to cook, even oatmeal as... basic as this. I wouldn't have thought of adding the maple syrup, but it gave that extra little oomph. Rather than 2 servings, I turned this into 3 servings. Eating about 200 cals early in the morning made more room for a nice 100 cal snack and a cup of skim milk around 10 am. (I closely monitor my calorie intake). The walnuts for this should definitely be toasted. :) Enjoy. Read more
