Oatmeal question

I am trying to lower my cholesterol and know that oatmeal helps.. But I cannot stand the taste/consistency of oatmeal.. How do you get your oatmeal in for the day? Thanks

Re: Oatmeal question

I sprinkle jello from the box on the oatmeal (sugar-free jello) I used to mix jelly in it.

Re: Oatmeal question

I had a similar problem, but found two solutions:

Oatbran muffins
Rolled oat shakes

The oat bran muffins (note: use oatbran, not oatmeal), are pretty tasty. The recipe I use is: 1.25 cups of skim milk, 1 teaspoon baking soda (aluminum free), 2 egg whites, 2.5 cups of oat bran, a bit of honey, cinnamon (I eyeball it), and one sliced apple. Cook at 425, for approx. 17 minutes.

It makes a dozen muffins, and I eat 2-3 daily. You can alter the recipe, of course... some people use brown sugar or add vegetable oil, but I find the above recipe good enough.

The other way I get oats is to make rolled oats shakes. To do this, you get rolled oats, and either grind them up and pour them into a small amount of juice, and stir. They more or less dissolve. Or... I take rolled oats, put in a liberal amount of frozen blueberries/raspberries, a bit of water, and mix it all in a blender. I can get 2-3 glasses of oat/blueberry shakes that way.
