All About Oatmeal - I LOVE OATMEAL!

Today's information is all about Oatmeal. That versatile, lovely food that can be used for breakfast, lunch, dinner and dessert.

I'll start with Cooking with Food Storage Ingredients. This 61 page cookbook was created by Adrie Roberts Cache County Extension and Utah State University. This book has a section on Wheat and Wheat berries. The recipes include meat that can be substituted or eliminated. The oatmeal recipes begin on page 32, so for the purposes of this post you skip to there and begin reading.

5 Reasons Raw Soaked Oats are a Must-Try
1. They're much easier to digest
2. They are higher in resistant starch
3. They save you time
4. They're versatile
5. They taste like dessert
Remember that rolled oats are higher in fiber than instant or quick oats and will stick with you longer.











Next is a 6 page (no author) All About Oatmeal, informational handout that talks about everything from food to cosmetics. It covers 
  • Forms of Oats
  • Recipes
  • Beyond Food

Also including oatmeal is this Sample 3-Month Food Storage Supply list from PreparedLDSFamily. Check out their website at preparedldsfamily.blogspot.com. This supply list states that it can be printed for private and church use. For a 3 month supply for 1 person they recommend 5 pounds. So for 1 year that would be 20 pounds. Personally, I have more, because I enjoy oatmeal a lot.

Hope you enjoyed visiting today.




Update 11/17/17: There is the added problem of deciding what to store for hard times. It's a good thing I love beans so much.
Happy posting. Glenda
