Ingredients
1 3/4 cup Water1 Cup Quick Oats1/4 cup Dried Cherries, roughly chopped1/2 tsp Vanilla Extract2 Tbs Black Cherry fruit spread
Directions
Place small pot on med heat and add water, oats and dried cherries. When it come to boil turn down and cook 1 minute. Remove from heat and add vanilla extract and Cherry Fruit Spread. Makes two servings.

Note: I substitue milk for water so I can get my dairy in as I don't like to drink milk unless I'm dunking a cookie in it. Also Ellie's recipe doesn't call for chopping the cherries but I like to get one in every bite and this way it distributes them more evenly.

    I've made this for myself and my husband and we both LOVE it. It is very tasty and very satisfying. I will definitely be making this again (and again!) - 4/17/09
