Lovely way of adding variation to your oatmeal or other hot cereal! I used old-fashioned oatmeal and a cherry-black currant tea, which added great colour and taste! Also I used some cinnamon for the spices. Mmmm! I, too made this on the stove top and it came together very quickly and easily. I cant wait to try other types of tea and cereal using this concept. :) THANKS SO MUCH for sharing your yummy recipe with us, nomnom! Made and reviewed for Comfort Cafe-Snow Queen Round-January 2010.

This is a fabulous concept for hot cereal! I used a mint green tea bag and steeped it using water from my steaming hot water dispenser (one gadget I love!). Then I added the instant cream of wheat and cooked it on the stove top. It had a lovely mint flavor. I added a sprinkling of splenda to sweeten it a tad, but it would have been fine on its own. I loved how it was easy to get some more green tea into me! Thanks Jessica!

Been several years since I was last active and experimenting, but I'm coming back into it.
I used to be vegetarian (even had a touch of the veganism), and I still love me my veggies, but I also love me my meat. I will never stop liking tofu no matter what. Don't knock until you try it cooked PROPERLY. Tofu is so easy to mess up.
