I have never really put anything unusual in it. I have put raisins in it. I have put cinammon in it and I have put bananas, and apple sauce in it. That is about all I have tried. Plain oatmeal just tastes really nasty to me. I know it is healthy but it is hard to eat. I have not tried cocoa powder that might improve it significantly I will have to give that a try.

Whoo apple sauce sounds like a good one to me.
I have not tried cinnamon - I do not like if I can taste cinnamon in things so it would have to be a tiny bit. But I put raisins all the time as well.
Also I just remembered that I have crushed biscuits into porridge before normally malted milk or digestives. I have also put Holicks in it whish is a malt drink All those ways are delicious.

It is lovely with Horlicks, try it but don't put too much horlicks otherwise it gets really sweet.

When I was pregnant with my first son, I HAD to have sweet mincemeat stirred into my porridge...it was my particular craving. Now i tend to put dried apricots, prunes, stewed apples, instant cappucino powder.... depends whats in the house - not all at the same time though!

All those sounds like good things to try, I have done chopped apple before but stewed apple will probably be much nicer. Prunes sound good too. I am not coffee person so I able to stomach the cappucino.
Are the prunes dried too or the ones you get in tins?

Hi, Ros3 
I do not know if this is unusual or not but I like to have salted eggs with my porridge.
As for my oats, I do not like anything in it except milk and sugar.
Have a nice day!

How are salted eggs made and what is the difference between porridge and oats because I use oats to make porridge so I am a bit confused :)

I like to put a spoonful, or two, of jam into my oatmeal. Lately I've been finding a bunch of different flavours at the store, even a yummy cherry jam. It's really good.
I also sometimes put frozen berries into my oatmeal, but thaw them first, otherwise the porridge gets cold.

Lol if you did not say that I would have put frozen berries in my porridge.
I have tried jam with porridge but it is good with rice pudding so I guess it will be good with porridge I will definitely try that and the thawed "frozen" berries.

I put a bit of dried fruits and apple juice in it. It will taste fresh and light.

I guess I have kinda had it with apple juice because when i make it with soya milk the milk is sweetened with apple juice :)
And the dry fruit I have try are sultanas and raisins but I am definitely going to try others after the feedback.

Well... The food I combined to it isn't very good so don't make this... I usually eat Bacon and Eggs on my breakfast and my mother says it isn't food to eat in Brazilian brakfast. So she don't buy it. I resolve to eat sausages and cheese. So I cooked it for me and she made porridge for me. We discuss for this and I resolve don't counter she. So I mixed porridge with sausage and cheese... It isn't very good and my dog ates all my breakfast...

Not too sure about that combination - sausage and cheese together sounds good but with porridge I would be scared to try it.
