Eat What You Love: Cinnamon Roll Oatmeal

Since Joel and I are moving in 11 days (yay!), we're trying HARD to eat up a lot of our food.  I had some rolled oats left over from the first time I made this oatmeal months ago, so I decided to use them up this week and make it again.

The oatmeal is adapted from Marlene Koch's Eat What You Love and is called Cinnamon Roll Oatmeal:

Cinnamon Roll Oatmeal (7 Points+)
Ingredients:

• 1/2 c. rolled oats
• 1 c. water (you made need more depending on your box's cooking instructions - read those instead)
• 2 packets of sweetener of your choice (I only used 1 packet of Sweet 'n Low this time)
• 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
• 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
• 1 tsp table salt

Optional Ingredients:

• raisins
• banana

Instructions:
Cook oats according to package directions.  Once cooked, mix in remaining ingredients. 

I also added raisins and a banana to mine, which made it delicious and very filling for me.

I hope you all have an enjoyable weekend!  I'm spending mine studying at Starbucks and hopefully getting a chance to enjoy some of this amazing weather we're having in Maryland - no humidity for the weekend after a week of upper 90-degree weather with a heat index of over 100!

I haven't decided what I'll be making this week for breakfast and lunch.  Do you plan your work-week meals?
