VANILLA SPICE OATMEAL

Steps:

• In a medium saucepan, bring the water and salt to a boil. Stir in the oats and raisins, reduce the heat to low and simmer, stirring occasionally, uncovered, for 5 minutes.
• In the meantime, place nuts, if using, in a dry skillet over a medium-high flame, and toast, stirring frequently, until golden and fragrant, about 5 minutes. Set aside.
• When the oats are cooked remove pan from the flame and stir in the vanilla and nutmeg. Swirl in the brown sugar and place the oatmeal in serving bowls. Pour 1/4 cup of milk on top of each bowl, and top with toasted nuts and a sprinkle of cinnamon.

VANILLA - CINNAMON OATMEAL

Steps:

• Add the cinnamon, cardamom, and ginger powder to the water to boil. Some people add their oatmeal to the water after it begins to boil, but I find that adding the oatmeal at the same time, before it begins to boil, actually gives the oatmeal a very smooth, rich flavor. Once you boil the oatmeal for about fifteen minutes and it boils down into a porridge, add a fruit of your choice. Great fruits to add are strawberries, blueberries, apples, or bananas while it's still warm so that it cooks into the oatmeal. You may also add golden raisins and/or almonds. This adds a little crunchy texture to it. Other things that you can add to your oatmeal are granola and flax seeds or wheat germ. Again, that adds somewhat of a nutty taste to it and adds a little bit of texture.
