    alternatives to oatmeal

    hey do you guys know of any good sources of complex carbs that have the nutritional value relatively close to that of oatmeal, but are easy to make and wouldnt take a lot of preperation?

    im a college student and dont exactly have the time to be cooking fancy meals all the time and am tryin to find an alternative to just eating oatmeal


    maybe brown rice cakes?

    anyways if you guys know of anything thats low sugar and low salt id like to know

    thanks

    Swolecat is right on. Get the old fasioned oats in the largest container they sell. Put 1/2 cup in a cereal bowl, add water. Put it into the microwave for 80 seconds and you are done. Doesn't get any easier than that. Add a pack of splenda if your diet allows for it.

    Brown rice, Sweet potatoes, Wheat bread (if you must)... Honestly, bro, just suck it up and eat your oats like the rest of us.
