Oatmeal Substitute I found....

[gumbo]

Hey gang,

I've been pretty sick of eating oatmeal 2-3 times per day.....I recently was shopping at "Trader Joe's" (natural/unique food supermarket) and came across a blend of Oats, Rye, Barley, and Wheat (nothing else added). It looks just like and cooks just like regular oatmeal, but tastes much better in my opinion.
Does this sound like an equal or better substitute to plain oatmeal?

I also add a couple tablespoons of Flax seeds to the mix and it still tastes great.

Do you grind your flax seeds first?

 

[gumbo]

yeah....I grind them up and just mix them right in.

I tried the Flax powder from Protein Factory, but didn't like the taste or consistency. I find that grinding up the seeds taste better.

I personally like cream of wheat much better than oatmeal, I know oatmeal is a better choice since is a whole grain, but I can't stand it anymore.
