Maple & Brown Sugar Oatmeal

Okay, this isn't super innovative, but we've really gotten in the habit of trying to eat a little healthier on the weekends. One of our current favorites is this homemade maple & brown sugar oatmeal.

Ingredients:

1 tablespoon butter

1.5 cup old fashion oats

2.5 cups boiling water

1/4 cup lowfat milk

1/4 c sugar free maple syrup

2 tablespoons brown sugar

1/2 teaspoon salt

1/4 c. chopped pecans

Instructions:

1. Bring water and salt to a boil, then add oats.

2. Cook per manufacturer's instructions.

3. Remove from heat. Add butter, milk, sugar, and syrup and stir. Let sit 5 minutes to cool before serving. Top with pecans. Enjoy!

This served both us us with a little left over. Yum!
