This is as easy to make as instant oatmeal, but much more nutritious and cost effective. It has a wholesome, nutty taste. I eat it almost every day for breakfast, since I can make it quickly and easily at work. I just pour some of this hot cereal and water in my bowl without actually measuring but still trying to following the proportions in the label (1:3), and then I microwave it for 3 minutes. I usually add a little milk and top it with some fruit, like banana or raspberries. Sometimes right after cooking I stir in a little natural almond butter or peanut butter, which goes great with banana.
