Oats can go far. Grab a big bag of steel cut oats and the possibilities are endless. Stir some peanut butter in after the oats are done cooking, throw some fruits on top, maybe some protein powder and you've got a cheap filling breakfast. You can also go savory, if you like oats you'll find a ton of good combo ideas on google.
Depending on where you are, a lot of grocery store rotisserie chickens go on sale something like 2 or 3 hours after they were made so you can get a half price chicken if you pick one up past dinner hours. A quarter chicken with rice and some greens will fill you up nicely. Use the carcass for chicken broth and you can cook oats in that too.
Previously I couldn't eat oats because of the texture, but soaking them overnight in whole milk makes it way better for me. I do frozen fruit layered with oatmeal, raisins, a bit of honey, and cinnamon. A spoon of jelly if I'll want it to be sweeter.
Ya I find a lot of people don't like oats simply because of the way they make them
Grain oats, only can be healthy! Just oats it is just calories. Rotisserie chickens - healthy food, hope you are not kidding.
I'll be honest, I have no idea what your comment is trying to say. Could you please rewrite this so I can understand it?
I think they are saying oats can be healthy. But oats by themselves are empty calories.
I thought oats were pretty healthy while also having a good source of fiber...
Me too. I'm just guessing what they meant.
