Want something simple yet elegant?  Here’s a recipe we made by accident.  I’m not a real fan of oatmeal.  I don’t like sugar in it, either.  John always asks me if I want some of his.  I usually don’t, but this one day I did.  I wasn’t ready to eat it when he was so he put it back on the burner.  We love fresh frozen blueberries  heated up in it and I love bananas in it, too, but usually just added on top after served.  He had added the bananas and put it back on the burner on low.  I ate it about 1/2 hour later.  The bananas caramelized  & tasted like plaintains!  Oh, the oatmeal was so good!  Mmm, warm oatmeal heated w/blueberries and caramelized bananas!  Here’s the recipe:

• 1 C quick cooking oats
• 3 C water
• 1/4 C blueberries, frozen or fresh
• 1 T flax seeds
• 1 T chia seeds
• 1 medium-sized banana

Directions

• Add water to the oatmeal.  Add the flax and chia seeds.   Bring mixture to a rolling boil and boil 1 minute.
• Turn burner to low and add blueberries and bananas.
• Cover pan.
• Cook on low for 5-10 minutes until bananas are caramelized.
