[whatkuwait]

I know this was posted like 12312313 times but I am sick of the boiled oatmeal and whated to know how the rest here do theirs.

I saw a guy adding it to his shake but isn't it too dry and large to swallow?

Thank you.

my favorite is adding almond butter/cinnamon/truvia/WF caramel dip...

other ways i've had it were ground up into a chocolate banana protein shake, proats (bunch of diff ways...), homemade cookies (followed online recipes but used wheat flower instead of white), pancakes, etc.

oats+1 scoop of whey+some PB+1/2 banana= WIN.

hey man, how can you swallow oats? I tried it but I almost throw up, I think because they were still dry.

Oh Im talkin about mixing it all up and cooking - proatmeal (with water). Cook the oats first then mix the rest.

Could do it like a shake too and just blend it all.

i wosh that i can rep u guys

[Lueszu]

I use, Cinnamon, Dried cloves and apples with a little (a little) of brown sugar. been taking it that way since i was 4 years old XD

[king_james15]

milk, protein, pb, oats in a blender. they go right down. 900 cals plus

[Eiros27]

Ugh I tried it with some Nutella and some organic PB, almost vomited, **** was disgusting. I just eat it without any sugar with some sliced bananas and blueberries (blueberry season by the way, a lot cheaper at the store).

If you wanna drink it in your protein shake this is what I do for my post-workout shake. I grind up the oatmeal in a blender (I keep mine an old 1 lb. protein container so I don't have to make it each time and do a batch all at once) like a Magic Bullet or any other small food processor.

I mean i've added just the regular oatmeal to a shake before in a quick rush...but it's WAY to hard to swallow as you said.

As far as eating it cooked regular. For breakfast I just add the water (try different amounts as it changes the texture, I like a little water barely covering the oats) and nuke it in the microwave, add one serving of natural peanut butter, 1 serving of flax seed oil, and a dash of cinnamon. Thats how I have my oatmeal when cooked along with the rest of my breakfast. Hope that helps.

put your oatmeal in a blender and it becomes fine powder

[MikeK46]

Today I added sweet potato puree & cinnamon, and a little bit of splenda...awesome.

no homo?

Do you put them in raw when mixing in a shake?

As part of my breakfast, I slice a banana and add a handful of dried blueberry/cranberry/raisins before microwaving it. The fruit adds plenty of sweetness, and I "water" it down with skim milk to help the texture before eating.

[tommyboy81]

milk, protein, pb, oats in a blender. they go right down. 900 cals plus

This is what I do... otherwise I can't eat all that oats at once. I just blend in 2 cups or so with whey and anythign else I feel like making. With milk after workout .


I am not a huge fan of oatmeal and if you aren't either I suggest doing this method as well

I just go raw in a blender. The protein powder gives it plenty of "sweetness". Can't really taste oats at all.

Yeah this. It takes me like 5 minutes to drink and don't even feel that full afterwards. But if I were to cook the oatmeal I'd puke trying to finish it, srs

[JohnnyB21]

I use Quaker Quick Oats. I cook in the microwave and then add about a 1 cup of frozen berries. Usually blueberries, but other kinds work too...raspberries, strawberries, etc... The frozen fruit cool the oatmeal enough so that you can eat it without waiting for it to cool down! Good stuff!!

[Los_Diablo]

I use quick oats too.

Add water and nuke in microwave for 2 minutes. Take out and add 1/4 cup strawberries or blueberries, 2 tbspns peanut butter, and a little splenda


I switch back and forth between oats and oatbran and the set up is pretty much the same except with oatbran I opt for sliced almonds in place of the peanut butter.

[ALI2K9]

depends.. usually I mix it with my protein shake..

1. Whey Protein
2. Peanut Butter
3. Oats
4. a fruit..

or i'll eat it dry.

[AlwaysTryin]

1 cup oats in microwave for 2 minutes

Add 5 egg whites in microwave for 3 minutes

Mmmmmm

even add vegemite then sometimes and melt that in for a salty taste

[richie83]

3/4 cup oatmeal
3/4 cup milk
1 tsp cinnamon pwdr
splenda
raisins or blueberries
microwave

[stanzione1017]

i usualy will mix mine with water and microwave it..

i sometimes will eat it cold like cerial in milk

sometimes, if i have alot of time on my hands, il mix it into eggs realy thick, and then cook them as little pancakes in a pan..

[Jeclavad]

oats + eggs + fruits + cinamon + any kind of nut butter or flax seeds

Basically, ground them and put them instead of flour in the recipes
Pancakes
Cookies
Crepes
...

I also add them in shakes.

You can try some sour recipes as well.

[deadliftsnmilk]

i just put oats in blender say 1/2 cup and then double up milk so 1 cup milk and blend it together agian and chug pretty good

[BigBoyGoFit]

Oats, coconut shavings, lots of cinnamon, sweetener and bam in a bowl with hot water. Priceless taste.

[JOSEF RAKICH]

Sometimes i cook it in the microwave with water, then cut up some banana through it in add some cinnamon then mix it all up, tastes good.

I also add it into my protein shake for post-workout.

[whatkuwait]

thank you all for the great help, I mean there is many ways to do it and I dont know which to choose for my cut.

I did a lil testing yesterday, and here is what I did
3/4 cup of oats
1/2 cup of skimmed milk
1 tsp of pb
1 tsp cinnamon
1 artificial sweetener

turned out to be great, but there were some areas that tastes like ****. I think because I cooked it too fast.

Anyway, what I did tastes so good and might have alot of cals which is not right for my diet, I am cutting as you know. So could you tell me the best recp for oats on a cutting diet?

Yeah, please mind my crappy English.
