• 3 cups regular rolled oats
  • 3 cups whole-grain cereal flakes or coarsely ground hot cereal (low-sodium or sodium-free)
  • 1 cup chopped dried dates
  • 1 cup chopped dried apples
  • 1 cup chopped walnuts
  • 1/2 cup stevia or monk fruit sweetener
  • 2 tablespoons ground cinnamon
  • 1 tablespoon ground ginger
  • 1 teaspoon ground turmeric
  • 1 teaspoon ground cloves

Preparation:

  1. 1. In a large container (at least 2 1/2 qt.) with a lid, combine oats, cereal, dates, apples, walnuts, natural sweetener, cinnamon, ginger, turmeric, and cloves.
  2. 2. For each serving, in a 1- to 2-quart pan, bring 1 cup water to a boil over high heat. (Or, in a microwave oven in a 2- to 3-cup bowl or glass measuring cup, heat 1 cup water on full power [100%] until boiling, about 2 minutes.) Stir in 3/4 cup spiced oatmeal mix. Remove from heat, cover, and let stand for 5 to 10 minutes, until it’s as thick as you like.
