Dry Oatmeal Mix

This recipe came from the February/March 2003 issue of Taste of Home's Light and Tasty. I really have enjoyed this recipe and the ease of preparation. Also, very economical to have on hand. Those small packets of pre-flavored oatmeal do get pricey. 3 points per serving.

    Excellent!! I made this up in no time at all. My sons and I each had a bowl for lunch. I ended up using soya instant milk powder as that was what I have on hand. I didn't put any dried fruit into the mix as my one son doesn't like it. But I did add some raisins and some sweetened flaked coconut to my bowl. This deserves a whole bunch of stars because oatmeal usually makes me gag and yet I loved this! I could have gone back for a second bowl! The end amount is the same as you would get out two of those little, store-bought packages. In my microwave, I cooked it for 2 minutes. And I also add 2/3 a cup of water due to the raisins soaking it up. Thanks for posting!

    This is such a great idea! Those packets of pre-sweetened oatmeal do get expensive and they are overly sweet. I tried the recipe this morning and I really liked it. I didn't add the dried fruit into the whole mix though. I decided I'd just add a tablespoon of dried fruit when I'm cooking it. That way I can vary the taste from day to day by using different dried fruits! Thanks
