(I always go looking for Chinese soup when I get sick: wonton or Hot & Sour.)

(35,643 posts)I didn't know you were a bread baker. Oatmeal bread sounds delicious--and healthy, too.
Last night I made a healthy cookie recipe using oatmeal--and bananas and and dates. No sugar needed because the dates provided the sweetness. I baked them a little too long but I will experiment with this recipe and do it right next time. They were still good (not burnt--just a little too brown) and the RG and I ate them all. I halved the recipe, so it didn't make much.
This morning I'm having blueberries and mandarins with rice pudding. I also made a breakfast sandwich with rosemary ham and wasabi mustard on brioche. Blueberry kombucha.
Thanks for starting the thread, MissMillie.
Feel better, Ohiogal.

I keep flour and yeast on-hand so that if we run out of bread near the end of the month, I can make a loaf of bread or two. We always have oatmeal in the house, and the other ingredients are butter, salt, sugar and water. It's pretty easy, and it comes out pretty good. The bread toasts beautifully.
