Holy yum, you guys!

I’d fallen out of the breakfast habit, so in an effort to get back into eating the most important meal of the day, I decided to whip up a bowl of oatmeal after my run this morning. The thing is, it’s cold. It’s cold and also I didn’t want just a boring bowl of oatmeal, even with a handful of golden raisins. This warm, spiced bowl of goodness might just be the dish that gets me back to breakfast!

Chai Spice Oatmeal
1/2c instant oats
1c water or almond milk
1 small handful golden raisins
1/4t cinnamon
1 pinch each of ground ginger, cloves, and ground cardamom
1T brown sugar

In a large bowl, combine all of the ingredients and microwave according to the oatmeal’s package directions.

That’s it!

Do you guys have any other fun, oatmeal ideas? I definitely want to make this again, but I also want to make sure I’m not making the same thing every morning.

I first started making this in college, when I’d worked my schedule to only have class on Tuesday and Thursday. The rest of the week was fantastical, but those two days were so packed with classes, I needed something to hold me over for a long time.

This is a good, cheap, filling breakfast. Perfect recession worthy food, as Jess over at Cupcake Punk would call it!

I’ve got directions for making this with steel cut or with rolled oats. I’ve been on a steel cut oats kick lately, but they take a bit longer to make. What you use is up to you!
