The Monthly Project: Who’s Recipe is Being Featured today? Hmmm?

[ 3 ] 11/23/2010 |

The Taste of the Sisterhood has been a blessing to me and my dwindling recipe repertoire if I might say so myself. I hope you’ve been trying some of our wonderful recipes and if you have, please link up here if you’ve posted about them or tell us which ones you’ve tried! That’s what this Monthly Project’s all about!

This week I’m featuring a delicious recipe I’ve been meaning to cook for a real, real long time: CROCKPOT OATMEAL!  This one comes to us from Mary over at Another Step, and Another! (Thanks Mary!!)

Every time I see a crockpot oatmeal recipe I think about how I really want to try it so I am so glad that this one ended up in my email box!! FINALLY I have done it!! And I’m glad I did, it’s delicious!

Although oatmeal just doesn’t make for great pictures, I’m just sayin. But I sure tried!

Here is the recipe:

8 c. water
2. c. steel cut oats
1/4 tsp. salt

Spray crock pot with cooking spray. I highly recommend that you do not skip this step like I mistakenly did. (I’m looking at 6-8 hours of scrubbing a crockpot.) Anyway, next up: add all ingredients. You can also add your own blend of spices, apples, almonds, raisins, whatever strikes you. Cook on low 8 hours. Can’t get much more simple than that!

Just waking up to breakfast already made was like a dream, not to mention just how yummy it was!  Photobucket I added brown sugar and topped it off with almonds, it was delicious! And the kids loved it! I’m dying to try it with apples and cinnamon!

Definitely try this recipe! Next week is our last week of the Monthly Project, so get your recipes in to me, I’m featuring ONE MORE!!! christieo@shrinkingjeans.net If your recipe is not featured, we will feature them on the ‘hood no matter what! So link up below or tell us which recipe you’ve tried! Haven’t tried any? (That’s crazytalk!) Go try some and link back up here next week!

Happy cooking!

    Sounds easy….now if I could just wrap my head around eating oatmeal in anything other than a baked goods product maybe I would try it! lol
