I am truly a creature of habit to the point of insanity but yesterday I decided I didn't want to have my standard oatmeal for breakfast.  I've been eating the same combination for months now but for some reason I wanted to try something different so I decided to hunt on the web for ideas.

After searching around for a few minutes, I came across a recipe which included peanut butter and jelly.  It sounds weird and I dismissed it immediately.  After searching around for a few more minutes, I couldn't find anything else so I decided to give it a shot.



I wasn't prepared so all I had available was almond butter and strawberry preserves but I thought... what the heck... let's give it a shot.  I've had it two days in a row now and I think my old oatmeal recipe has been replaced.  I LIKE IT!

It really doesn't get any easier than this...

PB and J Oatmeal

- 1/2 cup slow cook oats
- one cup of water
- one tbsp peanut or almond butter
- one tbsp strawberry (or whatever fruit you like) preserves

Combine oats and water in a medium bowl and microwave for three minutes.  Stir in nut butter and preserves.  Eat.

That's it.  Probably the easiest recipe on this site.
