My perfect bowl of oats used to be topped with brown sugar, a dollop of butter, a good squeeze of maple syrup and a dash of vanilla. I don't even want to know the number of calories or grams of sugar I desecrated my healthy, plain oatmeal with then. And since giving up all the good stuff I have tried all kinds of combinations and experiments with my oatmeal to no avail... until now...
This morning I tried a couple of scoops of powdered sugar free vanilla pudding in my oats. It made all the difference! I added some cut up strawberries and viola! Strawberries 'n' Cream Oatmeal! I am so excited about this it's ridiculous, but I just had to share this amazing breakthrough! The countless new possibilities are all running through my head right now and I can hardly wait to try them! Woohoo!!! Yay for oatmeal!

I usually just put my uncooked oatmeal into yogart, fat free, sugar free, if I can find it. I am totally going to try your combination, that sounds devine!
I used to LOVE oatmeal with a little butter and a huge heaping spoonful of brown sugar. Sigh. I never thought of sugar free pudding though. I wonder what else it can flavor? Yum.
Great idea.
Sugar free jams all the way!
That sounds good. I dropped sugar a while back and I love the difference it makes. I still cheat sometimes. :)
Oh Yay! I love yummy tasting recipe ideas that are low cal and no bad stuff!
That sounds soo good!
I'm so trying this...
Since I don't eat gluten and have also given up mammal products, I support your move away from processed, enriched, anything! Keep working raw and fresh foods into your diet.
