Very tasty oatmeal! Loved the nuttiness that the wheat germ, almonds and sunflower seeds added. I used dried cranberries for the fruit and enjoyed a great breakfast - thanks for posting the recipe!

I've been making this with a few personal changes for many years. I always add a shake of ground cinnamon in the bottom of the large cup I use. I put it in first because it seems to blend in better than putting it on top. Also, raisins are part of the deal because my other half likes them. Thanks for the starter recipe, Satisfied Kris.
