Oatmeal is one of the best meals for breakfast when you are on a budget. It's cheap, one box will make lots of meals and it is incredible versatile. I still had a couple of apples left so I decide to make apple cinnamon oatmeal. Sure they sell that already prepacked,but this method is cheaper, tastier and still only takes less than minutes.
1) Prepare oatmeal according to package. (I am really into McCann's Irish oatmeal for its hearty flavor)
2) Core and slice half of an apple (whatever you have is fine) and finely dice. (You can do this by hand but I have a nifty chopper I use)
3) When oatmeal is finished add the finely diced apple and add anywhere from 1/8-1/4 of ground cinnamon powder. Stir well and you are finished! Easy enough and much tastier than prepackaged oatmeal. Ten minutes max.
The sweetness of the apple you use will determine how sweet the oatmeal is. You could add a touch of honey or brown sugar but I am trying to stay away from sweets and the apple adds just the right amount of sweetness for me.
