Oatmeal is an easy and filling meal that is high in fiber, vitamins, and minerals.
Oatmeal is a whole grain, and when served with a source of protein, healthy fats, and fruits, it's a balanced breakfast.
Cooked and filmed by: Fernanda Nunes
1/2 cup uncooked oats
1 cup of water
Or 1 cup, milk of choice
Stove top:
Add the uncooked oats and the water in a pan or pot, turn the oven to high and cover.
When you see the water with the oats boiling, remove the top and use a spatula to mix the oats so that they don't stick to the bottom.
Continue cooking until the oatmeal reaches your desired consistency - less time for more a more moist oatmeal, and cook for longer for a dryer oatmeal.
Microwave:
Add the uncooked oats and the water to a bowl or mug and microwave for 1 minute
Keep an eye on the oatmeal as it can cook too fast and spill over the top.
After the 1 minute is over, you can cook for longer (recommended in 15 second increments) if you would like a consistency that is more dry.
Overnight-oats:
Add the oatmeal and liquid of choice (water, milk, milk alternative)
Mix them well and add toppings of choice.
Leave in refrigerator overnight, and enjoy the following morning!
