directions

  • Mix the water and frozen apple juice in a small sauce pan, and bring it to a boil.
  • Add in the 1/2 cup of oatmeal ( I use one-minute ). Remove from heat after it's cooked according to directions on box. Let it stand for a few minutes to thicken and cool a little, if you like it the way I do.
  • Add in the cinnamon and pecans; and also stir as you're adding in the pieces of fruit, so they don't stick together.
  • I prefer to wait till the oatmeal is cool before adding in the fruit, to preserve more vitamins; plus I like it thick and cold, like cookie dough. I also like saving some for an afternoon snack later in the day, straight from the icebox without heating it.
  • This is great little snack for kids too!

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY

I'm a 54 yr old male. I started taking an interest in cooking after I was diagnosed with ADD, and learned about all of the things that I cannot eat. So now I try to be in complete control of what is in my food. I like to focus on healthy recipes that don't require much, if any, cooking.
