What are some good add-ins for oatmeal?

Question

Okay, so I have a tin of Quaker Oatmeal and I'm supposed to be eating it for well, forever =P I'm an athlete and nothing fills you up like oats cause they're slow to digest and are complex carbohydrates. But alone with milk they taste really bad. I'm going to Kroger in about an hour so I need good suggestions for toppings to eat with oatmeal. (I Don't eat maple syrup or any kind of liquids with my oatmeal so, something like dried fruit, nuts, anything solid)

Answer 1

Answer 7

Here are some things I put in mine:

Sliced bananas

Brown sugar

Blueberries/raspberries

Chopped Almonds or walnuts

Raisins

Dried cherries or cranberries

Answer 8

tsp of Flaxseed meal, tsp of oatbran, Stevia.  (If you do chose to add liquid,  vanilla soy milk.)

For me, oatmeal is comfort food. I love a simple hot bowl of oatmeal.

Answer 9

A touch of brown sugar sprinkled on it is good. You can also use Craisins or unsweetened, dried cranberries. Chopped, dried figs are really good also. Chopped, dried mango is another option. If you don't want the chewy dried fruit in your oatmeal, put the dried fruit in a storage dish, cover with water, put the lid on and store in your fridge overnight. In the morning drain off the water and add the reconstituted fruit to your oatmeal.

Hope this helps.
