Meatless Monday - Extra Special Irish Oats
Extra Special Irish Oats

I'm lovin' these special oats. I suggest making a lot and just reheating it as needed throughout the week.
4 1/8 cup Water
1 cup Traditional Irish Oatmeal
2 Tbsp Ground flax seeds
2 Tbsp Maple Syrup
1 tsp Vanilla extract
1/4 tsp cinnamon
pinch salt
Combine all the ingredients in a medium saucepan and stir. Over medium/high heat bring to a boil. Stir again, then reduce heat and simmer uncovered for 30 minutes, stirring occasionally. Avoid over cooking so that they maintain that nice nutty flavor. Serve with almond milk, a little Earth Balance buttery spread. You can also add blueberries or sliced banana and nuts. Makes 4 servings.
Tid bit - Has anyone noticed how veg is going mainstream? I was happy to see that, once again, Oprah brought attention to veg life style. We all know how much clout she has.

I was enjoying the picture of your oatmeal, and decided to look at some of your holiday pictures. I ran across the Guerrilla Art. I didn't have anything to do with my day so I made beaded bookmarks, and randomly left them in books on the library shelves. My granddaughter went with me, and had a blast. We are off to another branch tomorrow!
