Quick Apple-Cranberry Oatmeal


Quick Apple-Cranberry Oatmeal

Serves 2 / Oatmeal has long been the breakfast of camp-ions because it's light to carry and packs a fiber-filled, complex-carb punch. This version is rich and tart and tastes great with a side of sausage. Substitute any diced fruit for the cranberries.

Camp Tip: Skip the yogurt if refrigeration is limited. Boxed soy milk needs no refrigeration before opening.

1 cup regular rolled oats
1 cup apple juice
1 cup enriched soy milk
2 tablespoons plain nonfat yogurt
1 tablespoon honey
1/4 cup dried cranberries
Pinch of cinnamon

1. Combine oats, apple juice, and soy milk in a pan and cook over high heat, simmering but not boiling. Stir often, until oats are soft but not mushy, about 6-8 minutes.

2. Remove from heat and add yogurt, honey, cranberries, and cinnamon. Serve hot.
