Craisin Creamy Oatmeal

There was a definite chill in the air this AM!  Frost is already mentioned for tonight!  I guess it's time to pack away the comfy shorts and find those denim jeans.  Yes, it is mid September and it's right on schedule, but I'd rather not admit it!

While waking up to the cooler air, suddenly a bowl of creamy hot oatmeal came to mind.  O.K., last week during the 94° F day this idea would not have been good.  This AM = Yum!

Craisin Creamy Oatmeal is filled with old fashioned oats and is my fave cereal.  Adding those tasty dried cranberries to the oats along with Cinnamon, Nutmeg & Brown Sugar makes for a yummy, hearty breakfast!  Soy Milk works well for me, and also for this hot cereal.  I follow the basic directions on the Quaker Old Fashioned Oats canister, then add a little magic!  No Salt needed!

3. Heat to a boil over Medium heat.
4. Stir & cook for 5 Minutes.

***When the ingredients "sit" in the pot, the oats & Craisins soften resulting in creamy oatmeal.

Fiber & Calcium at breakfast is the best!
