Oatmeal 5 ways
Phases (see below) | Serves: 4 on P1 and 8 on P3
Prep time: 2 minutes | Total time: 10 minutes
INGREDIENTS
- 1 cup steel-cut oats
- 4 cups water
DIRECTIONS
- Combine the oats and water in a large saucepan. Boil 1 minute. Turn off the heat, cover the pan and let it stand overnight at room temperature.
- In the morning, remove the lid and bring the oats to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer, stirring often, until the oats are creamy yet still a little bit chewy, about 7 to 10 minutes.
- Cooked oats will keep in the fridge for a week. You can just spoon out a serving (1 cup for Phase 1 or 1/2 cup for Phase 3), add a little water and reheat in the microwave for a minute or two. Or, you can make a huge batch and freeze single servings.
- Then, add your favorite mix-ins (per 1 cup of oatmeal on Phase 1 and 1/2 cup on Phase 3)
