Usually I also cut up a banana and put that in for some taste... its pretty good.. try it

Oat meal with one scoop of vanilla protein powder, soy milk, cinnamon and a sliced apple. Everything went into the microwave (I now just burnt my toungue...) and yupti it's ready. Good breakfast, fibres, proteins, fruit everything. Yes as Leslie says, when taking your oats at night time, mix it with some proteins to control the insulin spike. Bon appetit! -------------- - Nina :o) La vie est toujours aussi belle.....

fireloard Posts: 665 Joined: 2001/03/27	2002/05/01, 03:56 PM Sounds like it might taste good.. the only thing I ever keep with diets is that 'if it tastes good its probably not good for you'....
