Karen in Breakfast, Oatmeal Challenge, Vegetarian

Mmm. Oatmeal.
Ok, this isn't something I'd usually say. I do like oatmeal, but only on the occasional, 'can't think of anything else to have for breakfast' day. Besides this, I'm not accustomed to having a regular breakfast time, and often breakfast becomes brunch, or is simply missed. As I said previously, one of my resolutions this year is to actually eat breakfast on a daily basis. To cement this as a habit in my life, I've begun the 30 Day Oatmeal Challenge, found on the Live Well 360° Blog.
As my family and I were at dear friend s' home for New Year's, overnight, I am beginning my challenge today. (Though I did have breakfast there! MMM...cinnamon rolls!)
I changed all stevia references in the original recipe to sugar, and added a bit of extra flaxseed meal, on account of my grinding too much.  I also was out of walnuts, and so used pecans, but other than that, it's not really too different from the original. Delicious!
