how to cook Oats

[SamWelly]

Whats this not eating oats on a cut???! You need carbs in the morning man! You must do no excersize at all if oats makes you chubby.

I have mine with blueberrys, almonds, and water. Cereal is like cake mix these days!

Clean Bulking oats:

I am not allowed to go near the oats in the morning... my partner is the champion of cooking them and he holds his technique very close to his heart!

When I break him down I will let you know his secret.

Tip to try: If you want to reduce your cooking time in the morning let the oats stand overnight in some of the water you will cook it with,next morning it is already soaked and cooks a bit faster.

Man I love breakfast...

1/2 cup oats + 1 cup water into the microwave for about 1.5-2mins

Stir then add 1 or 2 scoops protein powder.

**More oats = more water needed

VOILA! All done.

Sometimes I add blueberries or substitute the water for skim milk. Sometimes I even skip the microwave altogether and just eat the oats as they are + skim milk + protein powder... its still nice.

**NOTE: Unless you've got your timing down to a T (or a really deep bowl), keep an eye on the porridge while its warming up... cleaning out the insides of a microwave covered in oats SUCKS :madman:

yeah I agree, 1/2 to 1 cp water, microwave for 1 &1/2-2 mins then I use 3 quarters scoop of BSN syntha in moccha or banana-awesome...lthick and creamy like a pudding :clap:

I am thinking of soaking my oats over night dose the GI index increase while my oats are soaking over night?

I doubt it. Don't know why you would want them all slushy tho. I would say the nutrient value is reduced when left in water for long periods... I guess if you don't drain the water it should be sweet.

Anything is better than the cake mix they call cereal. :doh:

Well to answer your question 2guns, some of the nutrients would escape into the water, leaving the oats less nutritious, the water more nutritious and overall just as nutritious, unless of course sunshine were to evaporate some of the water, but i guess that would leave the nutrients behind. so no real change, did that help you? \:D/

wanker, if it was left over night there would be no sunshine.

Come to think of it I am going to take a pass on that thought of letting my oats soak overnight plus my oats wouldnt taste all that nice.

[frogie2001]

me, i'm a meat and vege kind of guy. 2:1 ratio of water to oats. microwave. add protein and some canned pineapple mix up and rock on.

an alternative i have tired is oat pancakes, can't remember the recipe but they weighed a ton.

Home made toasted muesli, nuts, dried fruit, throw it all in the oven and grill

[modernvalkyrie]

oats + tuna in olive oil and garlic = top knotch :nod: :nod: :nod:

nothin wrong with savoury oats. This one time I ran out of rice and used oats instead :nod:

See the recipe on oatcakes ... you can even turn them into 'bread'...lol

The way that I cook my oats is on the stove. I put in one cup water then wait for the water to boil then I cook my oats for one minute.I put my oats in my All Blacks bowl with one 1tsp of flaxseed along with one egg,banana and 150ml of yougart then I mix it up.
