Apple Cinnamon Oatmeal

I'm not a fan of the packaged apple cinnamon oatmeal, but when we had peeled apples that needed to be used, I gave this recipe a try.

Boil 1 c. water in a saucepan and add:
1/8 c. dry apple OR 1/2 grated apple
2/3 c. rolled oats
1/4 t. vanilla
1/4 t. cinnamon
Bring back to a boil. Cover pan with a lid and turn off heat. Let sit 5 minutes, stirring once. Serve with milk and salt and sweetener to taste. Serves 2.

I put a little bit of brown sugar on Parker's and some honey and raisins on mine. It was pretty yummy...
It says that there are only 109 calories per serving. Obviously adding stuff to it will increase that number, but wow. A healthy breakfast that keeps you full for longer under 200 calories? Suh-weet!
