Put one cup of oats and four cups of water in a pot. Bring to a boil, stir, turn off, cover and leave on stove top. Oatmeal is ready to be heated up in the morning.

Hmm, I thought oatmeal had to be actually cooked for a while or it makes everyone really gassy. That's why we don't do Muesli, too.

My husband, daughter and I have been eating steel cut oats prepared this way every weekday for years. It's never caused excessive gas for us. I think the oats cook in the hot water over night.

Not quite the same, but Quaker makes one-minute oats (not the sugary instant kind, but plain oatmeal in a canister) that can be microwaved. I think it's a perfectly reasonable weekday substitute for the overnight steel cut oats.

Agree, plus it is very easy to sneak healthy extras into oatmeal, like ground flaxseed, wheat bran, quinoa flakes, etc.

My 6yo likes Kashi GoLean Crunch. And it's so funny b/c if my DH or I eat it, we get horrible digestive, umm, troubles. But she apparently is fine with it! My DH also adds a dallop of p.b. into her cereal bowl.
