These will be perfect for my grandmother. She's about to turn 106 and still living on her own. It will feel like she is still cooking for herself but make it so much easier and safer for her to do so. I think I'll just make hers in a batch in quart jars so she can make as little or as much as she likes.
I've added dates, nuts, and figs to the list. Can you do more DIY recipes to help us cut down on prepacked and processed goods? 🙏🏽
I would like more DIY recipes also.
I bet such recipes are on their way!
me too please
Me also. And raisins.
Oh, figs would be good!
I use sugar free vanilla powdered coffee creamer as a sweetener with a few canned peaches, it makes a nice peaches and cream oatmeal!
Thank you! My husband is diabetic and I wasn't sure how to incorporate a sweetener into a homemade oatmeal (he refuses to do the packaged sweeteners like stevia or splenda) this will work really well! Thank you so much!
Those glasses with tops are available at the dollar store for $1.25 each. I purchased them there for years. You have a choice of white covers or red covers.
Really love this idea and I’ll be making up my oatmeal breakfast for the next week today. Thank you.
Yes, we are making more, too. Jim
I thought I saw them at Dollar Tree…thanks!
My husband likes to add PB powder and mini chocolate chips. He says it’s like eating a warm no bake cookie lol.
Wow I never thought ab that! A healthy chocolate chip oatmeal "cookie" for breakfast sounds like a great idea!😊
Peanut butter powder and chocolate chip. Love the blender and powder milk idea. Thanks
As a person with Celiacs in order for it to be certified gluten free it has to be grown on land that has never had wheat, rye or barley grown previously. Otherwise, even though oats are gluten free if there are seeds that grow from previous gluten grains it can be cross contaminated.
Additionally, most commercially processed oats, come from factories that also process other gluten containing grains creating again, risk for cross contamination. I believe I read that Quaker for example has only one certified gluten free facility in the US ( which is one reason their GF oats are higher priced and have limited availability). The GF “fad” diet has only made things more difficult for those of us who have no choice.
Plus there is a chance for cross contamination while growing with water runoff and wind drifting 🤷🏻♀️
Yes, I don’t have celiacs but I have severe intolerance. It breaks out my face with hives and itchy red patches, stomach pain and feeling extremely I’ll for several days 😩.
@@donnad57I’m so glad you posted this. I came here to correct her, too. Thank you!!
Have you ever been poor? Poor people can't afford to be allergic to gluten
Wal-Mart has 1 oz packets of various freeze dried fruit for $3.28. They also had blue berries that were dried, but they were soft like raisins. These were the same price but you get 3oz. The reason we care what process they use is shelf life. For my purposes i think any of the dried items will be fine. In addition to oatmeal cup ingredients, i got a spray bottle for steramine and two dark finished, large sized heavy duty bread pans. 😊
You showed up like an angel my friend! Walked into the kitchen to find oatmeal and brown sugar scattered on the counter from the kids this morning and thought, 'There's got to be a better way!' Thank you so much!!!! I love this new series!!!!
I have been making a similar recipe using zip bags. I add slivered almonds to all my varieties. I make a lot of the combinations you did, but one of my favorites is Almond Joy using almonds, coconut, and chocolate chips.
Great idea! I would add a bit more milk - milk proteins make the cereal creamy too. I love the prospect of NOT using plastic or styrofoam for these! Note: If you sew at all, there are several YT vids for making an easy-to-make small quilted bowl/cup cosy for hot bowls. I like “Crafty Gemini”, and “Crafty Grrl”.
The bowl cozies are wonderful and very easy to sew. I made a variety of sizes for myself as well as gifts for others. They also are nice to use when placing hot bowls or plates on the table or counter, and even eating a bowl of ice cream because you can hold the bowl without freezing your hands ☺️
@@donnad57 My friend made a set of bowl cozies for me. They are adorable! I use one every time I eat an oatmeal cup!
Yum, just started doing this. Using zip lock bags, less expensive then buying and taste great. Thanks for doing this. My son does the overnight oatmeal and adds flavored protein powder, this is our breakfast when I come to visit.
Thank you for this fantastic idea! Our grandson stays with us during the week. He loves oatmeal, but those packages aren't that healthy. I'll definitely be making these.
I'd add freeze-dried pumpkin puree, pumpkin pie spice, and roasted pecans. Freeze dried apple and apple pie spice. Freeze-dried peaches and roasted pecans or almond slices.
Sounds delcious!
This simple breakfast recipe is one of my all- time favorites. I just made another batch. I have added chopped almonds or walnuts, as well as pumpkin seeds or sunflower seeds to what ever fruit I have used.
Sounds great! Jim
THANK YOU, THANK YOU!!!! I finally got these made (GF), my son has Celiac and hasn’t had instant oatmeal since diagnosed a few years ago. He tried one this AM & I got the thumbs up! Thank you for helping to bring back a part of normal food for him. I’m still learning this GF life for him & appreciate something I could easily convert for him. Thanks for your time & efforts to teach & inspire food security!
Made 12 jars for storage. Used desiccant with them. Opened two and added sliced pecans, apples, and dates. So good!!
That sounds great! Jim
Your timing is perfect. I was actually searching for a recipe for oatmeal packets when you video notification came through! I made this up for my husband right away. He prefers only raisins or cranberries. The mix is in a 1/2 gallon jar with a scoop so he can make his serving size as desired and add a few pieces of fruit if he wants.
I love your idea of storing in a large jar, which also sounds convenient! A mason jar could be vaccum-sealed to ensure longer-term freshness. Going to give this a try.
I also would like some walnut pieces in mine. With a tsp of maple syrup instead of brown sugar.
This is such a money saver over those packaged cups. I got those exact glass containers at dollar tree! Love them. I also grind my rolled oats in blender until coarse.
I thought about going there for them then read your post. 😂
Thanks so much for the idea of getting the glasses at Dollar Tree!
My celiac 9 year old great grandson needs GF oats If you have been to a mill, you know there is dust everywhere Gluten free us processed in a plant where NO wheat is processed Completely gluten free. If he eats straight oatmeal, he doubles over with pain . We use Bobs Red Mill Gluten Free Old Fashion oats for our granola and we will use it in this wonderful recipe. Thanks for the idea!
Well, I feel like a dolt! Why didn't I think of this? I make overnight oats all the time with sugar and spices, nuts, and/or dehydrated fruit. But like you, I sometimes buy the ridiculously expensive prepackaged commercial stuff. What a clever girl you are! This will save me bunches of $$! Thank you. Looking forward to the rest of your vids on this topic.
I eat Oatmeal for breakfast often. The pineapple and coconut sounds delicious.I went to Walmart and got pineapple tidbits and coconut flaces.
I make overnight oatmeal with oats, chia seeds, milk, honey, and Greek yogurt. Then just add fruit on top. So good.
I like making overnight oats (not shelf stable) using steel cut oats, uncooked. I use half pint canning jars. Add diced apple, Craisins, chopped pecans ( or walnuts), cinnamon and sugar. Top it off with milk ... Half and Half is so delicious ... Stir and refrigerate overnight. I make up several of these at a time to have throughout the week. Oh, I don't heat them (but I suppose you could), just eat them out of the jar. So yummy!
I do heat them in the winter @@danniemcdonald7675
I adore Chia seeds and Kefir.
Great video. I add powdered almonds. I measure my oats by weight & have at least 50g per day to help lower cholesterol. You mentioned dried apricots. I usually add these as well for the taste & the potassium content. Supposed to help lower high blood pressure. I tend to soak my oats overnight & eat them at room temperature for breakfast with a little bit of maple syrup or honey. This video will inspire me to try a wider variety of dried fruits. Thankyou!
You are so welcome. Thanks for your comment!
Another suggestion is to use frozen fruit, just p😮it in after microwaving the oatmeal. The coolness cools down the oatmeal so it can be eaten comfortably
Yes, Pam is adding more fruits to the oatmeals packages. Jim
I use the same ingredients to make overnight oats. I just add milk to the jar before I go to bed and stick it in the refrigerator. The next morning, breakfast is ready. I can eat it cold or heat it in the microwave. I usually eat it cold. It is so good!
Great tip! Thanks.
Going to make some of these with my dehydrated rhubarb and strawberry as toppers.
I love this preparedness activity. What a time and money saver! NOTE: IF someone chooses to use Styrofoam please DO NOT use Styrofoam in the microwave. I have been told fumes are put off in microwave heating. Styrofoam is not marked microwave safe.
Thank you I didn't know that
I would not even put those plastic lids in the microwave. When plastics say microwave safe, they are referring mostly to the bowl, LOL, not our human bodies. There are too many plastics leaching chemicals into our foods.
Great idea for healthy instant breakfasts. I like my porridge quite creamy so I think I would lightly blitz the 4 cups of oats (+ grind the single cup). I think this would also help to cook it more quickly. Loved your enthusiasm 🥰
I might start eating breakfast now. Quick and easy, and cheap. I have everything to make them. Thanks
I make something very similar. I got the recipe from an old "Company's Coming" cookbook years ago. I like it more plain so I leave out the brown sugar and cinnamon, then I can add whatever toppings I want. I think I add a bit more powdered milk as well. I also grind the chia seeds with the oatmeal and a bit of oat bran together. I usually make a huge batch and split it with my brother. So yummy!! Dried apricots with a tiny bit of almond flavoring is just awesome.
Never thought to grind the seeds! Great idea👍
Your variations sound very good. Jim
This was so much fun to watch! Perfect timing as it is getting quite cold here in Minnesota. You and Jim are so adorable! 👴❣👵
We did this for my daughter’s sleepover birthday party breakfast years ago. The kids had a blast mixing up their options 😊
How fun! Great idea.
Walnuts with oats are yummy and nutritious. Thank you for all your videos. I’m new at canning and learning everything from you!
This is right up my ally. These cups are a go-to in my pantry, but so expensive. Can't wait to do this
I couldn't imagine learning from this, seemed so simple, I only watched because YOU are so careful and smart, I was curious.
Mind blown...this is amazingly delicious.
I never thought to pulverize the oats, and adding some whole oats, so yum!!!
Once again you are helping me get away from money wasting. I’m so doin this
Love! Love! Love this. They are delicious. Thank you.
I Love this idea!! Thank you for sharing this!
Thank you for this idea. They sound like they could be a good snack or even dessert at times. I’d try dates and nuts too.
You've done it again! I'm super stoked about this one!!! My oldest son LOVES oatmeal. His birthday is Halloween but we are celebrating it this next Saturday (Oct. 21, 2023). He & his family will be here for his supper he got to pick out and I'm going to give him this oatmeal concoction to take back home with him (he may have to share with his kids so I will give him plenty. Oh Pam & Jim........I wish I could express how much of a blessing/enlightenment you have been in my life. You get me sooooo EXCITED about doing stuff!!!!!! I also love when you take us on rides with you guys. You are going far beyond your scope of duties regarding facebook and I so love you guys for it. I see things I otherwise wouldn't get to see. I'm 72 and don't like to travel anymore ever since the bed bugs and come back and now I have to haul so many medical things with me that it's just not worth it to me. Not complaining, I'm completely happy doing what I do get to do......which is so much more than a lot of people even younger than me get to do. Okay, enuf. I could go on & on about you two but this is already probably more than you like to get into. Thank you again & don't EVER think we don't appreciate EVERYTHING you do for us. Love You!!!!!
Looks so good! Thank you!
Wow! Thank you so much for this video. So easy!
This is awesome! We are trying to get away from packaged foods and you have come along just in time. Thank you, thank you.
Oh I love this!! When our children were school aged.. I kept a few glass cookie jars of various flavored oatmeals on the "low counter" for them to serve themselves breakfast. We also have a hot/cold electric water dispenser that holds the 5 gallon jugs...still have it. What a nice Labor Day tradition to mix up various flavored oatmeals for the start of the new school year. I would also use maple extract for maple and brown sugar oatmeal. Fond memories.. thank you!
OH MY❗️ Your enthusiasm is infectious! Helping people save and having fun doing it! I love it! If you use chia seeds they soak up 10 times their weight, you can make jams/jelly out of chia and fresh, mashed blueberries or strawberries, it is also yummy! I love maple/brown sugar, hmmmm, cranberry apple? Now you've done it, lol... This was a fun one! Thank you both, NHNancy 🍏🍐🍋🍊🍉🍇🫐🍒🍍🥥......
Oh this is good for me. I love this type of items and easy home made items on my shelf. You are the best thanks!
You are so good at all of this, I'm learning so much!! Love this idea, please keep all these wonderful ideas coming. Thank you thank you & Jim you're great.
Thank you for sharing this! This absolutely is an amazing idea! I will definitely have to give this a try! Raspberries, Blackberries, Triple Berries, etc. They all sound so delicious!
❤ LOVE❤ I can't wait to make this! Wonderful warm breakfast for winter that is right around the corner!
Love this thank you so very much Pam and Jim!!!
Oh, my! I have those jars and lids. So easy, quick and healthy. TY! 🤗
I have a canister with 1 minute oatmeal and raisins. I put 1/2 cup in a bowl. Add sugar, salt, cinnamon, butter, and 1/4 cup water and cook in the microwave 1 1/2 min. I do not like milk but you could put milk after and leave out butter. You could add dry milk, salt, sugar, and cinnamon to the oatmeal and raisin canister and just add the water as you use it.
This is great! And, I might add a spoonful of natural peanut butter to the banana cup when adding hot water 👍🏼. Thank you!!!
Would it work to add dried PB2 peanut butter powder to the dry mix?
@@maryschmidt6945 great idea- I'll try it.
I love the idea, I always have dried fruit, nuts etc on hand. Will definitely incorporate these in my menu planning.
love this idea
I love those ideas!!! I'll be making some!
Thanks for this excellent idea! We'll save a fortune!
I just had old-fashioned oatmeal with blueberries and walnuts. It was delicious. I can't wait to make up mixes. These will be grat when camping. Thank you so much for this video.
Thank you so much! I've been looking for something like this!!
My favorite is dehydrated raspberries and dark chocolate chips ... which I am now making. Haha
I just love you Pam! You are so helpful,AND, funny! That slow and very stated “PERIOD” made me laugh😂! Thank you for all you and John do‼️❣️
Last year I found a recipe for a hot cereal mix that adds cream of wheat, chia, and quinoa to oatmeal, which I ate throughout the winter with pecans and my dehydrated cherries. The quinoa gave it a surprisingly fresh taste that I loved, so I'll be doing that again this winter. I like the idea of added instant milk powder to it.
Love the cherries idea! Sounds delicious! We'll do cherry too!
❤❤❤
Oh I love this! Oatmeal has been a favorite food of mine for many years (grits are a favorite as well), and I will confess that I do buy the Quaker box of packets that you can get at the grocery store. It will be so much fun to create my own oatmeal packets. Thank you so much!
I love this idea. Great for even kids, for breakfast before school. So many great add ins.
Sooooooo looking forward to more of these!! Love this!! Thank you so much 💓
My husband loves oatmeal but I don't have time in the mornings to fix it so these will be wonderful . Thank you so much.
Thank you so much for this recipe. I've been wanting to do this for a while but just didn't know how😊
Ooh, yummy! I love oatmeal. Thanks for the ideas.
I sure loved your enthusiasm after tasting your oatmeal with pineapple and coconut!
It us very good! Jim
I really enjoyed this video. Thank you.
What a great idea! Convenience wins! Having these made up ahead of time would help us to reach for healthier foods.
How have I never thought of this. I will be making this today. I even have dehydrated diced apples. Your precision is fantastic ❤
So glad you like the idea. Dried apples work great--I just one like that this morning!
Pam What a excellent experiment! Brilliant. I will be adding almonds. pumpkin seeds and sunflower seeds to mine with a touch of honey. Thank you so much for all you do!
Oatmeal is very often cross contaminated with gluten depending on the facility where it is processed which can make Celiac sufferers ill. It is labeled gluten free because it is processed in a gluten free facility.
Then don't use it. Not rocket science.
@@kathymc234OP was responding to Roses comment in the vid
Thank you for sharing.
Thank you.
Welcome! Jim
Thank you. I've been doing this w Frosted Flakes to keep Hubby from buying the individual cups. Take care
Thank you for sharing your ideas on quick and easy prepping! I think my family will love these. Can’t wait to put some together.
You are so welcome! Jim
Great idea, making them now for the up going week. Thank you for this great idea. I am going add nuts
Well, well, well. I want to THANK YOU for this video. I made this with my flaked oatmeal. I actually bought the jars and was curious about the pineapple/coconut combination-DELIGHTFUL. Thanks so much
I like this idea. I’ve only done it as overnight oats making up several days in advance. Yummy. Thank you.
Love this idea. So simple
Glad you like it!
I finally made mine! It tastes just like the packets. I only had ground chianti seeds on hand. I ate my test one plain. I have freeze dried peaches, apples, bananas, strawberries, and I bought myself some crasians. Thank you!
I made the oatmeal cups today and it is delicious! I found the perfect bowl with lid at my dollar tree.
Fantastic!
What a wonderful idea for the prepped pantry and money saver. I would add freeze dried mango.
We eat oatmeal for dessert. Thank you both. Love your channel. ❤
I have been having an oatmeal cup for the past week or so, not everyday, but enough to notice a decent drop in my morning blood glucose reading. I have used many recipes and canning hints from your channel. Thanks for all you do. (I was eating the prepared oatmeal packets and they didn't have the same effect)
Thank you for the great idea!!
You have made me so hungry with the pineapple and coconut comb. Thanks Pam & Jim.
I would make peaches and cream, plus pumpkin spice as things to add. Thank you for all you do and share.
Always helpful to make life simpler. We love raisins, walnuts & brown sugar. I can't resist a big pat of butter.Tks😊
❤THANKYOU THIS IS FANTASTIC...!
Love this idea. Thank you
You are so welcome! Jim
This is great! Thanks for sharing.
I was looking to do this thank you for sharing
What a fantastic idea! Processed foods- not only expensive but so deleterious to our Health!
❤❤❤
Agree!
Love it. Will do it soon as I get to store. Coconut with any fruit would be good.
I love this idea! I would think that previously used jelly jars, or other commercially bought jars of similar size would work great too. Thanks for all you do!
You are very welcome. Yes, there are many options for packaging. I am just a sucker for pretty glassware!
This is great! I try to make as much homemade as possible, especially since there has been an increase in Bioengineered ingredients in things. I'd love more of these mixes/ideas. Maybe pancake mix or baking mix(like Jiffy or Bisquick), Brownie mix or cake/cookie mixes, ranch or seasonings, also really would liie to figure out a cream of mushroom for our Holiday tradition of Green bean casserole as now there is Bioengineered ingredients in it. Thanks for you great ideas!
Several months ago, I cooked a few big pots of the old-fashioned oatmeal, then added a little salt, butter, brown sugar, and heavy cream or half and half. I divided it into several bowls and made apple cinnamon in one, peaches and cream in one, blueberry in one, and strawberry in one. I freeze dried each batch, then broke them into big chunks and put them in mason jars or mylar bags. I sealed them, and they will be breakfasts for years to come. These will also be great for camping. If I were eating them within a few months, I would add pecans and/or raisins. I was going more for long term storage. Thanks for the idea (credit to Bob's Red Mill, too) to add chia seeds! I must try the pineapple and coconut next time!
This was fun. I already packaged oatmeal ready for hot water. Now I will add the flavors at the time I cook them. you have great ideas .
Sounds great! Jim
