I'm slowly getting the hang of making quite delicious oatmeal. I'm still using the Bob's Red Mill 10 grain cereal (new food rule in the house, don't open a new package/different brand etc... until the old one is finished!) and I add different things depending on the morning.
- flax seed
- wheat germ
- psyllium husk
- banana
- unsweetened coconut
- walnuts
and this morning I even put in 5 mini chocolate chips. And I love that you can change it up every day depending on what you feel like. I haven't gotten around to trying to add milk (soy?) to the mixture, I'm fine with just the water. I get enough dairy during the day (yogurt and cottage cheese) that I don't feel like I am lacking. Although I guess I don't drink milk otherwise. Maybe I should start adding a glass of milk with dinner.
When do YOU get in your milk during the day? Or is yogurt and cottage cheese enough. See - this is why I need one of those online tracker things so I know I'm getting in what I need.

I love Cottage cheese, it's usually what I count on for my dairy, plus I have milk in my cereal each morning.
I just signed up for Sparkpeople last week and I love it. It's easy and super convenient. Plus it has definitely showed me what I am doing wrong and where I need some work (less carbs, more protein)
yogurt and cottage cheese is usually enough for me to get in enough dairy.
I'm not sure I do get enough Dairy...I don't like milk. I don't drink milk. I always hope that the yogurt that I eat is enough to make the difference (that and the green leafy veggies!)
