As I mentioned before, I bought some Instant Oatmeal this week at the grocery store. When I was contemplating the decision, I thought about purchasing the Apple Cinnamon flavor. Then, I looked at the nutrition label:
13 g of Sugar? Seriously? I decided to just get the original flavor of oatmeal and add in any fruit that I wanted. So this morning, I created my own Apple Cinnamon Oatmeal.
Ingredients:
- 1 packet Quaker Instant Oatmeal: Original
- 2/3 cup milk
- 1/4 apple, sliced and cut into pieces
- 1 tsp cinnamon
The result was a tasty breakfast! I had been adding strawberries to my oatmeal, but the apple pieces and cinnamon made a cohesive taste to meal, which ties nicely in to the fall season! The great thing about this meal is that, according to MyFitnessPal, it only has 6 grams of sugar from the apple slices. That saves 7 grams of sugar from the packet of Apples and Cinnamon Oatmeal you could buy at the store. I bet it has more flavor, too.
