Oatmeal Recipe

This is one of my favourite go-to meals for breakfast. My kids love it because they can choose their own toppings and I love it because it is packed with protein and fiber. I also recently learned that hot oatmeal is called porridge by some, so if you ever wondered whether you like porridge, you will love it now!
