Just had the oatmeal. I love breakfast late at night. And I love our oatmeal. I picked up the bulk bag from the Marquette Food Co-op where I am an "owner"; organic, slow cook, just the way we like it.
We toss the big flakes of organic oatmeal into the boiling water with a dash of kosher salt, and set the timer. While that's simmering, we chop up the Michigan apples, toss them in with dried tart cherries from Shoreline Fruit in cherry country Michigan, and sprinkle some cinnamon. We'll toss in some pecan halves if you'd like. Now we serve it up with a big pat of butter on the plate beneath the bowl, a pitcher of milk (soy is available), and a jug of pure local maple syrup from Rock River Sugar Bush. We use syrup rather than brown sugar because it's local, and it's so darn good. It's a big bowl. You're full when you leave.
What pairs well with it? A big glass of DeBacker Family Dairy milk, poured from a glass jug, and a laptop signed into the WIFI.
