I'm glad to have found this great option for a quick breakfast in the morning. I didn't use bacon because I don't like it when it's crispy. The cheese (I used mozarella) gives depth to the flavor and the oatmeal is filling. The directions are a bit confusing. Steps 6 and 7 should say "fold in" the oats and cheese rather than "stir in" and step 11 should be in the notes. Despite all that, these are really worth trying.
