Oatmeal for Dinner
Left the office at 3pm with about 5 hours of work to do at home. Lacking
time to really cook a meal, the thought of a steaming bowl of oatmeal came
to mind.
Toasted a cup of pinhead oatmeal and a big handful of walnut pieces on a
baking sheet. Simmered the oatmeal in half milk/half water, lightly
salted, for about 45 minutes until very thick. Mixed in a glob of butter
until melted, then poured into a bowl. This followed by a generous
sprinkling of brown sugar, the toasted walnuts, and dried cranberries.
Very tasty, filling, and satisfying. Sometimes "dinner" just isn't dinner.
