Instant Oatmeal Packets
List of Ingredients
3 Cups Quick-Cooking Oats
Salt
8 Plastic Sandwich Bags
1/4 cup instant dry coffee creamer (devided between the 8 sandwich bags)
Recipe
Put 1/2 C. oats in a blender and whirl at high speed until powdery; reserve in a small bowl and repeat procedure with an additional 1/2 C. oats.
If you're using a food processor, powder the 1 C. of oats in one motion. Into each sandwich bag put 1/4 C. unpowdered oats, 2 T. powdered oats, and a scant 1/4 t. salt. Store in a box or airtight container.
To serve: Empty packet into a bowl. Add 3/4 C. boiling water; stir and let stand for 2 minutes. For thicker oatmeal, use less water; for thinner, use more water. (I microwave for 1 1/2 - 2 1/2 minutes or until done on high)

To each packet add 1 T. sugar, 1/4 t. cinnamon, and 2T. chopped dried apples.
SWEETENED OATMEAL
To each packet add 1 T. sugar
CINNAMON-SPICE OATMEAL
To each packet add 1 T. sugar, 1/4 t. cinnamon, and a scant 1/8 t. nutmeg.

To each packet add 1 T. packed brown sugar and 1 T. raisins.
WHEAT GERM OATMEAL
To each packet add 2 T. any kind of wheat germ
FRUIT AND CREAM (This is my own to satisfy the kids) To each packet add 1T. dry milk and 2T dried fruit or fresh fruit after cooking or jam.
