I’ve been looking to make my meals more cost effective and less processed. So lately, I’ve been focusing on cheap ingredient and seeing how many ways I can use it. My ingredient of choice to do this project is Oatmeal. I’ve had oatmeal in many forms but there were two forms that were my favorite and made the best meal prep breakfasts.
