We had banh mi for lunch today and we’re not too hungry for dinner so we decided on oatmeal for dinner. John cooked up Bob’s Red Mill steel cut oats and then we each fixed our bowls with our favorite accompaniments. I never used to be an oatmeal fan. I am more of a cream of wheat girl but John prefers oatmeal and I have come around to liking my gloppy bowl of oatmeal once a week.

I put a lot of stuff in my bowl — a whole packet of Splenda, a couple of tablespoons of plain yogurt, cinnamon, walnuts, and blueberries. It takes some stirring to get everything mixed in. It is quite delicious and the steel cut oats are really preferable to the quicker cooking rolled oats.

I have been getting tired of our weekly eggs on Sunday. I think I may opt for oatmeal for a while!
