Hi,

I’m Half Irish half English and my favorite oatmeal is steel cut also. I buy in bulk at Sprouts. I put a little maple syrup in mine with cinnamon, golden raisins and walnuts. I make enough for 4 servings the night before and just heat up a portion in the morning and have even had it for dinner. I grew up on some type of oatmeal and my favorite cereal as a kid was cream of wheat with brown sugar. Never any cold cereal in our house.
My mom also gave me liver and bacon for breakfast on occasion. Not everyone’s cup of tea. Speaking of tea, I didn’t drink coffee until I was dating my husband in school. No sweetener, just cream. So coffee and oatmeal in the morning and tea with honey in the pm.
Steel cut oatmeal rocks!

I did an Ancestry DNA test a few years ago, and my biological mother was found, she's Belfast Northern Ireland. I've been to Ireland, but not Belfast. I drink tea, I just started coffee 2 years ago, at age 52 🙂 Why people drink coffee escapes me, but then I'm Northern Ireland genetically.

I'll try that, I could make 4 servings of steel cut oats, and warm each serving from the refrigerator. I don't know why I don't try that? I cook my 1 serving of oats, religiously, twice a week.

I eat Braunschwiger, only from Oscar Mayer. Pork liver pate'. I just love that stuff. My Dad survived to age 88 eating it, it must be ok. Do you like braunschwieger? I eat it, but I can't spell it. 🙂

@imallears I cannot believe I met the only other person that dresses their oatmeal up the exact same way I do! When I'm sick and my husband offered to make oatmeal for me this is what I envision. What I get is a motel packette with enough hot water to make a paste. Sometimes I think the packette troll visits him at night to dominate his decision-making! lol
