Easy Protein Packed Oatmeal

Most people I talk to about oatmeal either love it or hate it. I grew up on oatmeal and absolutely love it because my grandmother used to make the best oatmeal! It was always full of delicious ingredients and topped with brown sugar and cream. Although my oatmeal looks a little healthier than it did back then it still rocks! This oatmeal is also a perfect post workout meal.
