Perfect Oatmeal

on

A perfect way to start the day! And who would have thought that a bowl of oatmeal could provide over half of the daily value for those hard-to-find omega-3 fatty acids as well as 109% of the daily value for manganese. Enjoy!


Serves 2

Prep and Cook Time: 15 minutes

Ingredients:
  • 2 1/4 cups water
