Bacon and Egg Oatmeal

"A savory breakfast oatmeal with bacon and eggs. Great with salsa."

3 slices bacon, 3 eggs, 2 egg whites, 1/2 cup uncooked oatmeal (not instant), 1 cup water, dash salt, salt and pepper, 3 Tablespoons salsa

Billbo's Cheddar Oatmeal

"An unusual oatmeal concoction because it has Cheddar cheese and sugar. A blend of sweet and savory for the adventurous. So yummy."

2 cups oats, 1 chunk cheddar cheese, sugar, 1 cup milk

Cherry Cocoa Oatmeal

"I'm still in the experimental mode for this oatmeal, so it varies each time I cook it. All I know is that it combines a lot of my favorite flavors, and it has not gone wrong yet."

9 cherries - pitted with stems removed then sliced in half, 1/2 cup oats (I use Old Fashioned rolled oats), 1 cup water, 1 Tablespoon cocoa, 1/8 teaspoon almond extract, 1/2 cup vanilla yogurt

Crazy for Craisins (Oatmeal)

"This experimental recipe has become a house favorite. I sometimes cook it the night before, thus saving time to enjoy a leisurely morning."

1 cup water, 1 teaspoon vanilla, 1/2 cup Old Fasioned or quick cooking oats, 1/3 cup craisins, 1 egg (beaten), 1/2 Tablespoon white sugar, 1/2 Tablespoon brown sugar

Fried Oatmeal Patties

"If you leave oatmeal out or refrigerate it, it becomes dense and holds its shape to form patties. A quick fry-up in a non-stick pan and you'll be eating oatmeal in an all new way."

2 cups cooked oatmeal (plain or flavored), 2 Tablespoons butter, 2 Tablespoons sugar - for topping, 3/4 cup seasonal berries - for topping

Homemade Instant Oatmeal

"Save some money, have some fun and eat good!"

3 cups quick-cooking oats, 1 teaspoon salt, 8 sandwich-size plastic baggies

Irish Oatmeal Risotto

"Parmesan and nutmeg make this breakfast risotto very flavorful. Excellent with leftover vegetables."

1 cup steel-cut oats (Irish oatmeal), 3 and 1/2 cups water, 1 cup low fat milk, 4 Tablespoon butter, 1/2 cup Parmesan cheese, dash nutmeg, freshly ground pepper

Oatmeal Doggie Biscuits

"A healthy breakfast isn't just for people any more. These are edible for humans if you have the nerve."

1 and 1/2 cups whole-wheat flour, 3/4 cup uncooked oatmeal, 1/2 cup cornmeal, 1/2 cup meat drippings (bacon or sausage reccomended), 1/2 cup beef or chicken stock, 1/4 cup rye kernels, 1 egg, 3 Tablespoons liver powder, 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder, 1/2 teaspoon salt

Oatmeal With Chocolate And Coffee

"A microwave oatmeal dish made with chocolate squares (or chocolate chips), coffee and raisins."

1/2 cup quick cooking oatmeal, 2 or 3 squares Dove chocolate (or similar), 1 cup water, a drizzle of coffee, raisins (or other dried fruit)

Oatmeal With Yogurt & Pecans

"I have used many different juices such as apple or orange to give a different, sweet taste to the oatmeal. The pecans add a crunch and many health benefits. The cut up banana or shredded apple adds more fiber and makes for a very filling breakfast. I like to try different yogurt flavors to add interest and a hot/cold sensation. Cinnamon is a nice addition when using apple juice and vanilla yogurt. This is a low calorie, filling breakfast with many health benefits!"

1/2 cup dry oatmeal, 1 cup juice, handful of chopped pecans, cut up banana or shredded apple, 1/2 cup low fat yogurt

Quick & Easy Breakfast Couscous

"If you don't have both apple juice and orange juice, you can substitute any juice combination or a 1/2 cup of just one fruit juice."

1/2 cup water, 1/4 cup apple juice, 1/4 cup fresh squeezed orange juice, 1/2 cup couscous, 1 teaspoon finely grated orange zest, 2 tablespoons finely chopped blanched almonds or walnuts, 1 tablespoon honey, 1 dash cinnamon
