Today's simple musings have guided me to think about oatmeal.
Oatmeal brings simple things to mind,
Like a morning breakfast table,
Set with mismatched china,
The everyday silverware,
Carnival glasses glistening.
A lovely, vintage tablecloth
Waves gently in the breeze
From the open kitchen window.
A hot bowl of steaming oatmeal,
To which you add a dollup of
Fresh, churned butter;
A scoop of Brown Sugar,
Dizzled with Maple Syrup
Topped off with
Fresh, hand-milked cream.
Easily prepared,
Easily served,
Easily consumed.
Simply, easy oatmeal.
Btw, I found a great organic oatmeal at Sam's Club. It's called Nature's Path Organic Instant Hot Oatmeal. It is certified organic by the QAI and is made in Blaine, WA. Go to www.naturepath.com
Also, you must try MaryJanes Farm Organic Outrageous Outback Oatmeal. It's also certified organic, has soy milk, currants, sunflower seeds, and is vegan. Go to http://products.maryjanesfarm.org/pfoshop/product.asp?dept_id=231&ProductID=43004

You'll enjoy Baked Oatmeal REcipe:
thyme2cook from MaryJanes Farm!
2 ¼ cups quick cooking oats OR 2 ¾ cups old fashioned oats, uncooked (I used OLD FASHIONED OATS)
2/3 cup brown sugar (I USED 1 CUP)
¾ cup raisins, craisins, or other dried fruit (I SKIPPED THIS INGREDIENT)
1 cup chopped walnuts (I used PECANS)
1 tsp cinnamon
½ tsp salt
3 1/3 cups skim milk (I USED 2% MILK)
4 egg whites – lightly beaten
1 tsp vegetable oil
1 tsp pure vanilla extract
Milk, yogurt, fruit, etc – as desired for toppings
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Spray an 8-inch glass baking dish with cooking spray. In a large bowl, combine oats, sugar, raisins, walnuts, cinnamon and salt. Mix well. In a medium bowl, combine milk, egg whites, oil and vanilla and mix well. Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and mix until well blended. Pour into prepared baking dish. Bake at 350 degrees for 55-60 minutes or until center is set and firm to the touch. Serve topped with milk or yogurt and fruit, if desired. Store leftover oatmeal tightly covered in the refrigerator.
