Yummy Oatmeal!

Who doesn't love a nice, warm, stick-to-your ribs breakfast
when it feels like winter may never end?

I found this recipe when I was pregnant, perhaps in one of the pregnancy books in which I was living at the time. This makes one generous serving: creamy, filling, delicious and comforting. A triple batch will more than feed our little family of four, but if you have older kids, you'll probably need to make more.

Also, I get the ingredients all ready while the water is coming to a boil. Just measure the oats and wheat germ into a cereal bowl, and sprinkle with salt. Measure the dry milk into another cereal bowl. I then use these bowls for serving the oatmeal so there are less dishes to wash.

We serve ours with brown sugar, milk, and seasonal fruit. You can also add raisins or chopped dried fruit about halfway through the cooking time.
