Today's oatmeal is ...
Mar. 9th, 2006 02:45 pmIn honor of Dave's return from a business trip to Washington D.C., since he likes a lot of fruit in his oatmeal,
1 c old-fashioned oatmeal
1 large Pink Lady apple, chopped
2 T chopped pecans
2 T flaxseed meal
2 T dried blueberries
2 T raisins
2 c water
pinch salt
microwave 10 minutes. Dave serves his with sliced bananas and brown sugar. I use sweetener to keep the refined sugar down. We ate it with grapefruit from our tree.

For eating, I sometimes prefer a slightly sweeter apple, like Jonagold or Gala, and I'm not so picky about texture. For putting in oatmeal, though, the tartness of the Pink Lady is divine.
Funny how apples come in fads. I remember when Granny Smiths were all the new rage and nobody wanted the surplus of Pippins. Now it's almost the reverse. I even saw some Mutsu at the health food store yesterday; hadn't seen that variety since the old Santa Monica farmers market days.
No sugar!
