Oatmeal gets a bad wrap. It’s dry. It’s bland, It’s boring. Yes. Oatmeal is all of that but it doesn’t have to be! I’ve been an avid Oatmeal eater all my life and tried many variations depending on my mood. Below is my favorite recipe created by yours truly. I hope you enjoy it as much as I do.

• 1 cup of oats
• 1/4 cup of raisins
• 1/4 teaspoon of cinnamon
• 1/4 teaspoon of organic Madagascar vanilla

• When contents begin to boil, bring heat down to a simmer
