I've been using this recipe every morning for 3 1/2 years now.  It's EXCELLENT!  Not too sweet, but gives the ho-hum oatmeal just the right kick to start the day off with!  I even pack it in snack-sized baggies to take along when I'm going to be away from home.  Thanks SO much for sharing!!!

I took all the dry items and mixed, then put into snack sized bags.  Put in a cup of coffee add water til cup is 3/4 full of water and mix. Heat 2 mins in micro wave let sit 1 min. mix and mine is usually thin, so I just drink it. lol I do this at work.  I can then rinse my coffee cup out and have coffee. However, I have already had a hearty breakfast.
