I wish I could remember where I got this-it was somewhere on the Internet! But it's fabulous, filling, delicious & very nutritious! I know the ingredients seems small for one serving, but I find it to be enough. Feel free to double up, though, if you're really hungry!
Ingredients:
1/4 cup old fashioned oats
1/2 cup milk (i use skim)
1/2 banana, sliced
1/4 teaspoon vanilla
1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
2 tablespoons ground flax seeds
splenda sugar substitute, for topping (i use two packets) (optional)
Directions:
1. Mix first 5 ingredients in a microwave safe bowl.
2. Microwave on high for 2 minutes
3. Stir oatmeal, and add flaxseed (it will thicken the oatmeal so don't worry if the mixture seems thin at first!)
4. Top with optional Splenda packets. I also top mine with more sliced banana & low carb vanilla yogurt. Raisins or nuts would be good, too!
