Breakfast
Recipe Ingredients:
- 1/2
cup oatmeal (Quick oats)
- 1/4
cup Carnation low fat powdered milk
- 1/3
cup raisins 1/3 cup mixed nuts
(chopped walnuts & sliced almonds) - a
dash of shelled sunflower seeds (unsalted is best)
- 1
tablespoon of brown sugar
Cooking instructions:
Mix ingredients thoroughly in a bowl and pour contents into a baggy.
When ready
to eat breakfast all you have to do is dump contents from the baggy into
a pot
and add 2 cups boiling water. Let contents sit for two minutes, then
serve.
Variations/Hints:
I also like to add dehydrated fruit like apples and peaches.
