This is it cooking in the pot. It looks good- kind of like no bake cookies but let me tell you that is not what it tastes like. I'll have to do some more experimentation, but not when I'm hungry for breakfast.

Experiment Gone Bad
So I tried my chocolate oatmeal experiment and let me say it was not successful. I cooked it according to other people's suggestions and recipes but it was really bitter. I even sweetened it with no-calorie sweetener but to no avail. Some of the recipes recommended cooking it with milk instead of water so maybe that would have helped the bitterness of it? Here's the picture of it. I decided to put apples in with it which turned out to be the only good part of this whole experiment.

We would have chocolate oatmeal at Evergreen all the time - and it was awesome. We would make the oatmeal, and then add tiny pieces of chopped apples, chopped walnuts, and mini semi-sweet chocolate chips. Really good. (But maybe not as healthy as you're trying to be...)
ReplyDeleteEven though you didn't like how your creation tasted, your pictures are pretty! (which is awesome for your blog!)
