This is heaven in a bowl. I have converted people who claim to not like oatmeal with this. It tastes like you are eating a bowl of pie. This can just as easily be dinner. You can bet your ass this is where the leftover cranberry sauce from Thanksgiving will be going in my life.
Amazing Pumpkin Oatmeal
Serves 1 (I like breakfast to stick with me, might be too much for others...)
Ingredients
1/2 C old fashioned rolled oats
1/2 C skim milk
1/2 C water
a few blops of canned pumpkin (1/3 C perhaps)
a few spoonfuls of cranberry sauce (homemade is best)
a wee bit of brown sugar or splenda if you like oats sweet
3 pecan halves crushed
a sprinkle of pumpkin pie spice
a sliced banana if you are starving to death
Add oats, milk, and water to a small saucepan. Simmer on low. Very low. Stirring on occasion. Slice banana and put in the bowl you plan to eat out of. Once oats have come to your preferred Goldilocks consistency - not too thick, not too soupy, add pumpkin, pie spice, and sugar/splenda (if desired.) Keep heating until pumpkin is mixed well in the oats. Scoop oatmeal into bowl to top banana. Top oatmeal with a few spoonfuls of cranberry sauce. And pecan crumbles.
Devour.
