Pumpkin Oatmeal

I'm extremely thankful to have a gas stove because it really came in handy during the electricity outage.  We would have been reduced to crackers, chips & who knows what other snacks that may be lurking around in the pantry.  But with the stove, we were able to maintain a relatively normal diet. 


On Day One of our outage (or Day Five of our snow in), we decided to warm ourselves up with yummy & hearty pumpkin oatmeal.  Yum, yum!  

Pumpkin Oatmeal

1 cup oats
2 cups milk
1/2 cup pumpkin puree
Toppings of your choice
Makes 2 servings.

- Heat milk & pumpkin puree on medium-low heat, stirring constantly to prevent burning or film forming on top.
- Add oatmeal once the liquid begins to simmer, stir constantly for about 10 minutes.
- Serve with toppings.
