I am in need of some good recipes that use Quick Oats. I have found some on the web, but nothing that really drives me crazy! Anyone have some good recipes that utilize quick oats really well? I would prefer something easy and with not tons of ingredients. Thanks

Oatmeal is proven to help lower your cholesterol, so I sneak it into our diets in meatloaf and as coating on chicken & pork. Here is a cook recipe that I use for a quick dinner.
Sausage Meatball Sub
Yields: 6 servings
INGREDIENTS:
1 pound Bob Evans or
Owens® Italian Sausage
Roll
1/2 cup oatmeal
2 eggs
1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
1 (26 ounce) jar spaghetti
sauce
6 hoagie buns
6 tablespoons grated
mozzarella cheese
DIRECTIONS:
1. In bowl, combine sausage, oatmeal, eggs and Parmesan cheese. Shape into 1 inch balls. In skillet over medium heat, cook meatballs until browned and cooked through. Reduce heat to low. Add spaghetti sauce and cook until sauce is hot. Spoon meatballs and sauce into buns and top with mozzarella cheese.

Oatmeal Scotchies were mentioned above. My kids love these when I make them to pack in school lunches. Here is the recipe that I use. (Will mention they are very rich so I cut the bars on the smaller side)
OATMEAL SCOTCHIE BARS
2 cups flour
2 tsp baking powder
1 tsp baking soda
1 tsp salt
1 cup margarine
3/4 cup sugar
3/4 cup brown sugar
2 eggs
1 1/2 cup oats
11 oz bag butterscotch chips
Preheat oven to 350ºF. Lightly butter a 9x13 baking dish. Combine flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt in a bowl and set aside. In a large mixing bowl, combine margarine, sugars and eggs. Beat until creamy. Gradually blend in the flour mixture, oats and butterscotch chips. Spread mixture into prepared pan. Bake for 25 to 35 minutes until lightly browned. Careful to not overbake.
