When daughter Kate and grandson David were here, I stirred together Summer Oats – Greek yogurt and uncooked oats. There were too many other things to eat for breakfast, and most of it was still sitting in the refrigerator when they left. Tonight I stirred in milk, sprinkled some chocolate chips on top, and heated some in the microwave. It was not a hardship to eat it for supper.

Such a treat when something is already made ahead of time and waiting to be discovered in the fridge!

Are summer oats different from winter oats?

Summer oats aren’t cooked, only soaked in Greek yogurt. You can add nuts, fruit, and chocolate chips to dress it up. I like hot oatmeal, but I never cook it for myself.

I have never had overnight oats, but have hot oatmeal every morning for breakfast. I used to cook it on the stove after I gave my microwave to Marge. (I had to keep it in the basement as I have no countertop space and I went downstairs to use it and a big spider was walking on the top and disappeared behind it – it was in a darkish corner of the basement.) So, back to my comment … I like hot oatmeal and didn’t want to cook it, so I buy the Old-Fashioned Quaker Oats and just get hot water from the tap, after letting it run a few minutes – voila. I put raisins in it beforehand and mix in some powdered creamer and also a scoop of peanut butter.

It sounds like you have a very posh version of oatmeal.

Ha ha – no, just a simpler way to do it … really, if you like hot oatmeal, just try the hot water in the bowl as it works. A fellow blogger put peanut butter in her oatmeal and I thought “why?” Then I tried it – I love peanut butter and I use crunchy, so it gives it even more texture. If I go on a long walk, my breakfast sticks with me and is not down in my toes.

Yes, sometimes I may be gone for hours, like today when I went to Elizabeth Park.

Sounds great. I have oatmeal just about every morning with fruit and nuts. Such a great way to start the day. I would have it for supper too if I was stuck for ideas. But hubby doesn’t like it.
