I’m determined to make myself like oatmeal. And I’ve had tons of tips from friends and fellow fitness seekers on ways to make the stuff more palatable.
I got an e-mail recently from my friend Alice who offered me an intriguing oatmeal possibility. I haven’t tried the recipe yet, but plan to try it this weekend.
The recipe comes from Bill Phillips’ book, “Body for Life.”
Body for Life Pancakes
1/2 cup uncooked oats
3 egg whites
1/2 cup fat-free cottage cheese
1/4 teaspoon vanilla flavoring
1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
2 packages sugar substitute
Combine all ingredients in a blender and blend until smooth. Pour in hot skillet. Cook, turning once.
Top with warm light maple syrup or fresh fruit.
That sounds delicious. I’m going to try it, too.
I’m getting a little tired of my old recipee. I have now switched to a cereal called Basic 4, which I love.
