    This recipe was great. Oatmeal usually tastes bland but this made it not even taste like oatmeal! The texture was so creamy and rich I'm glad I bought the big oatmeal box. I couldn't find dried cherries so I used fresh ones which lost a bit of flavor, but I sprinkled a few on top and it made it all the better. I also doubled the vanilla. This will be a recipe I'll make forever!

    I normally have to sweeten my oatmeal with cinnamon and sugar. This is perfect with the cherries adding just the right amount of sweetness. I cut the recipe in half to make 1 serving.

    What a great way to spice up oatmeal! I used 2/3 of the jam (raspberry and strawberry, since I didn't have cherry, and added walnuts (at least an equal amount to the cherries. Yummy!

    Great twist on an old fashioned favorite. Oatmeal is good for you but boring...this was easy to make and taste great. I make a whole lot ahead for the week...I am goign to try other dried fruits and preserves.

    This is the way I will make my oatmeal from now on. I used quick cooking oats and added a low sugar strawberry jam, a packet of sugar substitute, and chopped toasted almonds. I omitted the dried cherries because I don't like dried fruit. I also topped it with a splash of soymilk. I will make my oatmeal using this method from now on.

    Was very good. I added a little touch of splenda to it for more sweetness. I think next time I will cut up the cherries a little, mine were rather large.

    I don't really like oatmeal but gave this a try. Let me tell you, I have made it almost every morning this week. It is so good! I love this recipe!

    This is a great recipe to get oatmeal on the table again. I made this a few times, each time adding different fresh fruits, instead of just dried cherries. Fresh strawberries are my favorite so far. Perfect way to start your day!
