Oatmeal - I don't like it..help

[ch3mical]

Ok, IM not a huge fan on oatmeal, I duno if its the texture or what but it fuckin gags me But it's part of a diet I have made up therefore,..every morning I have a smoothie with my breakfasrt, just some berries and banana done up in my magic bullet, so could i just mix the packet of oatmeal in with that when I blend it up? or does it have to be cooked in order to be any good for me?

I was in the same boat too buddy. What I found was putting in 1/3 cup of oatmeal in my protein shakes, and then letting it sit for a while so they soften up, makes it super easy and tolerable to drink! I also highly recommend using a vanilla flavoured protein powder, since I found it tastes way better that way.

BTW, another cool things about having oats in your shake is that I was able to use water instead of milk and it actually ended up being just as thick and creamy as if I did use milk.

Good luck!

Thanks all,

I've found a good morning shake if anyone is interested...

THE NIGHT BEFORE!!!

Put a handful of frozen berries
2/3 cup of oatmeal
1 scoop of protein (only 1 scoop because I get a lot of protein from my eggs)
put in about half a cup of OJ and then some water


Leave it sit for the night, blend it up in the morning, fuckin delicious


I use the MAGIC BULLET for this btw, so amazing. lol

You could try putting some natty Peanut butter in your oatmeal if your diet permits it, tastes good.

It doesnt have to be cooked! I mix about a cups worth with fat free yogurt, wheat germ, flax seed and cottage cheese. Add a couple table spoons of skim milk (to make it a bit liquid) and 1/2 a cup cereal (your choice). Add fruit if youd like (i prefer bananas, for the pottasium) and voila! Deliciousness in a cup!

nibble on my ass cutthroat lol I'm just not a fan of the texture and thats that! I like my eggs in the morning having it with oatmeal ruins them, therefore I will be putting them in my shake so I still get them.

Oatmeal kind of makes my stomach upset, bloated, and gassey. It can be ok when mixed and made into pancakes or cookies (made with oatmeal, eggwhites, and protein mix).

For breakfast I use plain instant oatmeal, just add boiling water...

Post workout shake; add the Quaker oates to the blender with whatever other ingredients (usually water & protein)

~EZ

how does that make the shake taste? milk / oatlmeal / protein....i'll try that tonight.

Add 3 table spoons of oats and pour 2 cups of water, stir and cook for 4-5 minutes. Add some milk, dry fruits & nuts like raisins, dates, almonds, walnuts or anything you like. You’ll love it for sure, this has been my breakfast for more than a year and i’ve reduced considerable weight.
