We thought this was lacking a lot of flavor. It was nice to have something a bit different for a weekend breakfast other than the usual bacon and egg combo but, this just wasn't our thing. Sorry. Maybe next time I would try adding some cinnamon or nutmeg to the oatmeal to add some flavor. I had already sweetened it a bit with Splenda after I first tasted it. This helped but, I don't think we'll be in a hurry to make this recipe again anytime soon.

I love cooking and always have. I learned how to cook as a young kid and I've worked as a prep cook for a catering company and for a restaurant though I am no longer working in that industry.
Being a food lover, it was an unpleasant surprise to develop major food intolerances within the past few years. I've been 100% gluten-free since 07/06 out of medical necessity and am cutting down on dairy and soy since they make me ill in large quantities. I'm also working on becoming kosher. So, you'll see reflected in my recipes my recent interest in developing recipes that are both kosher and suitable for people with food allergies, without sacrificing taste. And there's lots of good stuff in my cookbooks for those of you with no food allergies, too, of course!
My areas of specialty are gluten-free baking and cooking, dairy substitution, vegan and vegetarian dishes, and Jewish cooking.
