Don’t know if this qualifies as a hack, but I love this version of premade oatmeal:
1/2 cup thick rolled oats (I used Bobs Red Mill or Wessex)
2/3 – 3/4 cup Silk Coconut Milk (depends upon how “runny” you like your oatmeal)
1 – 2 tablespoons of dried fruit
1 teaspoon unsalted almonds or pecans or walnuts
3 – 5 shakes of Garam Masala
Place it all in a microwave safe container and let sit at least overnight. Place in the microwave in the AM for 1.5 – 2 minutes. Completely awesome and amazingly satisfying.
I think that the hack here is that you can make this up ahead of time and let a few bowls sit in your fridge so you almost have “instant” oatmeal, but tastier. And periodically I have to give away a couple of bowls to my workout buddy and people at work. It is good!
