Comments
Figuring nutrition counts: Since I am tracking calories here is what I do. I pick steel cut oats (150c), toppings include cinnamon and blueberries (89c), so my breakfast is 239c.
Using oatmeal for breakfast has been around for thousands of years. I doubt there is an original recipe to source. Usually follow the instructions on the package and everything cooks well. For variation you could change the water for broth or other liquids and see how it works.
