    This is an excellent breakfast. I add dates in place of the raisins or dried cherries and use cherry concentrate in place of the sugar. Thank you for sharing! - 12/10/11

    I used cinnamon instead of vanilla and less sugar...still good and healthy. - 6/14/10

    Loved this! and so did my 2 year old daughter. I made hers with raspberries and honey and mine using the above recipe. I also used half vanilla almond milk instead of brown sugar and half water. I will definitely be making this on a regular basis. Highly recommended. - 7/25/09

    Also try dried cranberries, a 'spark' of flavor! - 12/14/08

    This tasted great. Thank you for suggesting Hodgson Mill brand. It is so much better in taste and texture than other brands of oat brand. I highly recommend this easy recipe. - 12/11/08
