I thought I'd start something new here...

and share some of our favorite recipes!

Here's a good breakfast one - it can easily be made vegan too.

Baked Oatmeal
2 cups oatmeal (don't use steel cut oats -- it won't work the same)
2 cups milk (or soy milk, almond milk or water)
2 cups boiling water
generous pinch of sea salt (maybe 1/2 tsp)
2/3 cup chopped dried apricots
1/4 cup raisins
3 small apples chopped well
3T brown sugar or other sweetener of choice (I used maple syrup)
1/2 t cinnamon or to taste
pinch of nutmeg

Preheat oven to 350. Mix oats, milk, water and salt in a casserole dish with a lid and let it set for 5 minutes. Put everything else in, stir well, cover and bake for 45 minutes. Remove cover for last 5 minutes. Serve with milk or butter as desired.
