I'm not allowed instant. It has to be the old fashioned kind. Lol.

It's organic quick cook oatmeal. Nutritionally comparable to steel cut. No added sugar.

I like the regular, Quaker, Old Fashioned Oatmeal. I cook it with water (it says water or milk) and to make sure it's not dry, you can add a tiny bit MORE water. I add a teeny bit of Lite Butter, I mean a tiny bit.....and I use Stivia to sweeten it. You can also use spray margarine instead of butter.

The spray margarine is a good idea. Thank you.

You're more than welcome!!! Bon Appétit.

Why do you need to wait till your at goal to eat oatmeal :unsure:

I can add oatmeal on my 2 weeks out list.

I used a oatmeal/protein supplement on my pre-surgery diet and still use it as it has 15g of protein and tastes great!

It's not allowed on my plan until goal. My doctors plan is very restrictive. Every doctor is different.
