Thankful Thursday

 


I am thankful that I found a way to eat oatmeal that I really like and enjoy. Oatmeal for breakfast is NOT my thing.. I simply pour oats on a pan, sprinkled sunflower nuts and raisins and stuck it in the broiler to heat.. DO NOT MOVE from the Ninja Oven, you will burn the raisins. I burned mine a little standing there watching it. You may bake if you like, I am to impatient. I kept it in the container and ate a couple of spoons of it each morning with toast. I also make cinnamon toast this way, French bread slice and put in in the Ninja on broil. there are 3 things on my It's OK to eat IBS list of foods. 

today you can all be thankful I only have one photo and a lot less words than usual.

You are wonderfully inventive! I butter a slice of bread and sprinkle on cinnamon/sugar, and put under the broiler for cinnamon toast.

That's clever! I cook sorghum, mix it with cinnamon and raisins and store it in the refrigerator. When I eat it I sprinkle pumpkin seeds on top.

Awesome. I have never been a fan of granola because I don't care much for the seeds.

Sounds great. I like granola on my yogurt.
Take care, have a great day!

I like both granola and oatmeal - sometimes even together. Granola looks prettier. A bowl of oatmeal generally looks like something the dog threw up.

I wish I had not read David's comment...

Well I like granola and oatmeal too - not together - and they both look good!

Home-made granola sounds delicious. I'll try it.

God bless.

Looks good!! I like to eat granola on my yogurt. I buy one that is "organic", with pumpkin seeds, flax seeds, and oats. I eat it dry sprinkled on the yogurt, but hubby likes it with milk. I'm not a milk fan, so yogurt for me. I also add sliced fresh fruits like strawberries or whole blueberries when I have them. Sometimes bananas if they are not overripe. My cinnamon toast is like I saw one of your other commenters...a little butter with the cinnamon/sugar sprinkled on top and broiled in my toaster oven. Yum! Or I buy the cinnamon raisin swirl bread (Pepperidge Farm), and toast it and then add peanut butter and apple butter to the top. Now that's good! Okay, now I'm hungry for breakfast, thank you very much! Have a lovely day!

Not a big fan of oatmeal/porridge, but I eat yogurt made from oats and mix that with various fruits/berries.

I love them all but these days breakfast is the meal I leave out (stupidly perhaps) in order to fast 14-16 hours a day. When I stop working in the office, I shall return to eating breakfasts and a very late lunch (main meal) and leave out the evening meal (which just sits in the tummy when I'm trying to go to sleep anyway) - and then I will have everything - oats, buckwheat, seeds, nuts, fruit, peanut butter, chia - you name it....

Yummy home made granola...

I'm so glad you have found ways to have more variety to your diet. Granola sounds just about perfect to me.
Thankful

I love everything about this ... except for raisins. My latest trend is sprinkling chopped walnuts on everything. No reason, but like you, I like playing with my food. Never grow up!

I'm not a fan of oatmeal and I should be eating it. Sometimes I mix it in with yogurt. I need to do that again. Yours does sound yummy.

I have oatmeal several times each week with diced apples, cinnamon. Thanks for joining Angel Brian's Thankful Thursday Blog Hop!
