Have oatmeal for breakfast

I Love oatmeal Porridge and eat it every morning. I like it cooked with raisins. The oatmeal, raisins, and a pinch of salt, are measured in a saucepan with the water and allowed to soak overnight. This makes the raisins fat and the porridge cooks quickly in the morning. I'm 74 years old, still working every day, and haven't had a medical checkup in 30 years.

I like oatmeal but we usually have organic pancakes and eggs for BKF. Have you tried the instant organic oatmeal packs from Sturm's? We get this at Walmart. Comes with different flavors. If your PH is fairly alkaline then you can eat all these acid foods but we still need our fruits and vegs also even at BKF if we are very acid.

Yes I eat oatmeal often. I eat a small bowl with heavy cream and peaches. I sometimes put apples and cinnamon in it or dried cranberries and nuts, or raisins. Almost any fruit is good in oatmeal. I don't use the instant kind. I have type 2 diabetes so I use the old-fashion rolled oats. They have more fiber than instant oatmeal and they are slower to digest which helps keep down the carbohydrates. I also use these oats in some of my recipes that call for bread, like meatloaf or stuffed peppers. There are a lot of ways to add oatmeal to your diet. Have a healthy day Kowgirl
