Oatmeal

Quick blog, no picture. I just discovered a way to make oatmeal that even my husband enjoys...usually he just tolerates oatmeal so he can have a hot breakfast instead of cold cereal.

1 cup Old Fashioned Oats
1 3/4 cup water
2 pinches salt
1 tsp vanilla---the "secret" ingredient
4 Tbl brown sugar
optional:butter

• Put oats, water, and salt into pan. Bring to boil
• Turn off heat, but keep the pan on the burner until most of the liquid is absorbed.
• Remove from heat. Add vanilla and sugar....and if desired, butter....Stir
• Cover until ready to serve
