Easy OatmealIngredients (use vegan versions): 2/3 cup of 100% oatmeal (large flakes-no quick stuff)
approx. 1 cup of water
1/4 cup raisins
Directions:Put the oatmeal into a bowl, add the raisins. Then pour in enough water so that it covers the oatmeal completely. Cover it and place it in the fridge over night. Throughout the night, the oatmeal has soaked up the water and sweetness of the raisins. In the morning, you can enjoy a cool, fresh tasting bowl of oatmeal. Not cooking it helps it maintain its full nutrients.
Serves: One
Preparation time: 2 minutes
I can't wait to try this one, its in the fridge now!

This is SO good! I love that this is ready when I get up in the morning! And since I don't have to wait for it to warm up, my mornings feel a lot calmer now!! Thanx for a great recipe!!=) =) My variation is: Use vanilla soymilk instead of water (I like it thick so I use just enough to barely coat the oatmeal), and then in the morning add half of a smashed banana for sweetness and 2 tbsp. ground flaxseed. I also like to add a little sprinkle of sunflower seeds as well. SO yummy!! =)
