Mixed Berry Oatmeal

[erin]

This is my favorite breakfast. I like it because it is filling, tastes good, and is good for me. I hope you like it too.

I make 1/2 C quick cooking oats in a scant 1 C water on the stovetop (prefer the texture, but you can microwave it).

Then, I make a mixed berry sauce with:
1 package of frozen mixed berries (you could totally do fresh berries since they are in season)
1/4 C water
1/4 C sugar
2 T cornstarch mixed in 2 T cold water
First put the berries, water & sugar in a saucepan. Cover & bring to a simmer. When it is all thawed and heated through, bring to a boil and add the cornstarch mixture while stirring. Stir till thickened.

Serve 1/2 C of berry sauce over oatmeal. The sauce makes enough for 4 days/servings. I like it cold from the fridge on hot oatmeal. It cools the oats down.
I hope you enjoy it!

PS - I'm off to grocery shop - out of berries and was a little lost this morning wondering what to eat.

Sounds yummy - I have a package of frozen mixed berries in my freezer right now I might have to try that this week. Oatmeal sounds pretty good! - How many points is that? Probably not much since there isn't any fat in the sauce! I don't like oatmeal in the microwave either!
