"I'm not sure about the amount of lemon juice; I used a fresh lemon, and squeezed it over the bowl. Adjust it to however "citrusy" a flavor you would like."

I really like the tang the lemon gives this. I doubled the blueberries and mostly followed Jen's directions. I also increased the sugar, since I used oatmeal cooked on the stove. -
This is addicting! I crave blueberries now when I wake up in the morning! I've tried it several ways and the best is to put the blueberries in the bowl by themselves, squeeze the lemon over the top and microwave for 30 seconds so they melt. Be careful...the bowl will be *very* hot! Add the other ingredients (I used 1/2 cup almond milk instead of water) and microwave for a minute or until done. -
How did you come up with this terrific combo? Eating oatmeal almost everyday, this was a great addition to my combos. It makes a great evening meal for one, as well.

I am a full-time graduate student and I also work full-time, which means that I am not likely to make labor-intensive, time-consuming recipes very often! I also struggle with anorexia, and so most of the recipes I create or try are low-calorie and fat-free. I do love to bake, though, and I'm able to do that for others right now, which is nice.
I also keep kosher; that, combined with the fact that I don't really eat meat or cheese, means that most of my recipes (or recipes that I try) are non-dairy and vegetarian, or can be easily adapted to suit that.
Kitchen gadgets are a horrible weakness of mine ... it is just so much fun to try out crazy new products that sometimes I can't help myself! Limited kitchen storage space has managed to sort of curtail that little habit.
