The Ultimate Oatmeal Recipe

Everyone knows that oatmeal is good for you. It is made up of slow digesting carbs, fiber, and 5g of protein per serving!
But eating plain oatmeal everyday can get boring and I must admit it doesnt taste that great.
I stumbled upon this recipe online and modified it to my liking:

1. Place 1 cup of milk (for extra protein–8g) into a pot on maximum heat.
2. Add a dash of cinamin, half a teaspoon of brown sugar and a drop of vanilla extract to the milk.
3. As soon as the milk starts to bubble lower the heat to medium.
4. Add 7 tablespoons of oatmeal.
5. Add a handful of raisins and some nuts (I prefer walnuts, but almonds work too.)
6. Stir the oatmeal for 3-5 minutes and enjoy!

Protein count: 1 cup milk-8g, 1 ounce walnuts-4g, 1/2 cup oatmeal-5g=17g of protein!! If this breakfast follows a workout add 2 hard boiled or scrambled eggs as a side for another 12g, leaving you with 29g of protein! Not too shabby. Skip the whey protein and stick to natural.
For a pleasant crunchy nutty flavor, try out steal cut oats. The ingredients stay the same but the cooking time goes up to 30 minutes–you can only add milk in the end to avoid burning.
