every morning



i have this nearly every winter morning. oatmeal with tons of toppings. it is really easy to make and tastes so good. i make it the night before and warm it up in the microwave at work - seriously, so easy.

the night before (at least 8 hours), combine the following and put it in the fridge:

.5 c rolled oats
1 c milk or water ( i do .5 c milk, .5 c water)
tiny dash of vanilla

the next morning, i microwave it for about 1-2 minutes (watch it because it can overflow) and add the topping:

1 tsp brown sugar
1 tsp ground flax seed
1 tsp whole flax seed
a sprinkle of wheat germ
about 1 walnut
tiny dash of kosher salt
a shake of cinnamon
