Creamy Cinnamon Oatmeal (1 serving) 1/2 cup quick oats 1/2 cup water 1/2 cup milk dash salt 2 packets of Splenda cinnamon (to taste) This is almost as quick to make as oatmeal from a packet and it tastes better.

I used 1 Tablespoon of sugar instead of the Splenda and 1/2 teaspoon of cinnamon which I mixed in with the oats instead of adding it like a garnish.
