Strawberry Oatmeal

(4 servings)

  • 2 cups quick-cooking oats
  • 1 pint strawberries (thawed if frozen)
  • 1 and 3/4 cups milk
  • 1 and 3/4 cups water
  • 4 Tablespoons sour cream or yogurt
  • 2 or 3 Tablespoons brown sugar
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
Prepare strawberries. The should be hulled and sliced.

In a medium bowl, combine strawberries and brown sugar and gently stir until all strawberries have sugar on them. Set aside.

In a medium saucepan over medium heat, bring water and milk and salt to a boil. Immediately add the oats and reduce heat to medium-low. Stirring occasionally, allow oats to cook 5 to 6 minutes to desired texture.

Fill four serving bowls with oatmeal, leaving room for the topping. Spoon 1 Tablespoon of sour cream on each bowl followed by 1/4 of the strawberries.


A lot more lively than instant oatmeal. And we all know how good oatmeal is for us. Try different flavored yogurts to make this recipe different every time.
