Whats for breakfast?

Actually, based on posts here, I bought a waffle maker since my son, who is temporarily living with us, loves waffles. After about 3 or 4 such meals, he lost interest. However, my wife and I.......
 
I'm trying to eat healthier, so for the last two weeks I've had Whole Foods bulk oatmeal every morning (with a touch of Brown sugar).

I love oatmeal, so I don't mind this healthy change.
 
Enjoy the cholesterol and high blood pressure! No need to knock someone for making seemingly healthier choices.

Yep, I too am doing the stone ground oatmeal and brown sugar 2-3 times per week...switched fromt he instant Quaker processed oatmeal w/brown sugar...much better.
 
I like the Irish Steel Cut Oatmeal...

Porridge...

What brand of oatmeal?
I buy two kinds...and it's actually steel cut. Just like HD, I like McCann's Steel Cut Irish Oatmeal. I usually soak these overnight and it cooks-up in 10-12 minutes...otherwise it would take 30-minutes. The other brand I buy is Millville "Quick Cook" Steel Cut Oats...which doesn't need to be soaked and cooks much faster. Both are good...just a bit different - like the difference between grits and quick grits, I suppose. I prefer McCann's (coarser), but others prefer the "quick cut" (which are creamier).

Interesting tidbit: I've always heard the term "porridge" and have always equated it to being a form of lumpy cream of wheat that was force-fed to all the orphans. Well, I recently discovered (at age 46) that porridge was, for the most part, steel cut oatmeal and milk. However, there is just something so very wrong with telling people that I am eating porridge for breakfast. ;)

Anyway, enjoy your porridge. :)

Interesting, when I was growing up, we always called it porridge at home but I never hear that anymore, its always oatmeal. I'm going to have to try some of these brand names I haven't heard of before,
 
While not an actual breakfast because of my working midnights I had a nice big bowl of chicken salsa soup yesterday that my wife made and damn was it good.
