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.

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.
