What can I do with left over pinhead oatmeal?!


Question: I live alone. I'd like to make pinhead oatmeal in my slow cooker overnight, but it won't work on too small a quantity. So what should I do with the left-overs?

I love slow-cooked oatmeal so I do this all the time:

Make a batch of oatmeal. Cool completely, then divide into serving-sized portions and store in the refrigerator.

Reheating: Place a serving into a microwavable bowl witha small amount of milk or water; cover loosely to allow steam to vent. Heat for a minute, stir, add flavoring to taste. Heat for another minute or so to achieve the desired consistency.

You can also add some protein powder -- you'll need more liquid, and it will make the oatmeal stickier anyway but you'll get more nutrition.

Enjoy.

Invite someone to spend the night.

The birds will love you for it!...:)

Unless you use a lot of water your left over oatmeal should get thick once it cools. If it's runny put it in a sieve and let it drain. You can try frying up what's left, but I don't know if it'll work well with oatmeal- worth a shot I guess.
