Oatmeal Packets

How many do you use?
I bring them to work for breakfast, but 1 packet seems to make nothing. I usuallly have to put in 2.
Anyone else?

Re: Oatmeal Packets

I only use one. But I'm always sad when my bowl is empty... and then I want another one...

I like to put blueberries and raspberries in my oatmeal. It helps make it feel more fulfilling.

Re: Oatmeal Packets

1 and a half is enough for me, then I add some dried fruit or apples.

Re: Oatmeal Packets

I use one and add either blueberries or half a banana.

You might want to look into high-fiber ones - they'll keep you full for a long time.

I use one, and then add plain quick oats (in the big round container) to make more. It's more filling, less sweet....

Re: Oatmeal Packets

I use one plain with a sugar cube and some fruit. It fills me up until snack time.

Re: Oatmeal Packets

I use one. I make it with milk and add a banana (small) and a teaspoon of peanut butter. It is very filling and satisfying. The best flavor to do this with is blueberry.

That's what I do too.
That way I can decide exactly how much I want.

one if I have a banana or piece of fruit to go with it. two packets if that's all I get to eat. I keep a box of the packets in my desk drawer at work :)

Re: Oatmeal Packets

I like my oatmeal VERY dry so if I use one, it barely coats the bottom of the bowl -- always use 2!
