Flax Oatmeal

Total Time: 8 mins Preparation Time: 5 mins Cook Time: 3 mins

Ingredients

• Servings: 1
• 1/4 cup old fashioned oats
• 1/2 cup milk (i use skim)
• 1/2 banana, sliced
• 1/4 teaspoon vanilla
• 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
• 2 tablespoons ground flax seeds
• splenda sugar substitute, for topping (i use two packets) (optional)

Recipe

• 1 mix first 5 ingredients in a microwave safe bowl.
• 2 microwave on high for 2 minutes
• 3 stir oatmeal, and add flaxseed (it will thicken the oatmeal so don't worry if the mixture seems thin at first!)
• 4 top with optional splenda packets. i also top mine with more sliced banana & low carb vanilla yogurt. raisins or nuts would be good, too!
