Note: This recipe appears in the WW in 20 Minutes Cookbook. If you love oatmeal, this dish is for you. This oatmeal is quick, easy and delicious and you can make this for breakfast, lunch or dinner any day or night of the week and people will be happy. You can use granulated brown sugar for a sweeter and much heavenlier flavor to go with the cinnamon and nutmeg. You can use any kind of berry such as raspberry, strawberry, blackberry, cranberry, or even cherry and it will still be delicious. You can even use apples, raisins or dried apricots along with the berries but it will add the point value to the oatmeal but it will quickly fill you up. It's even better the next day for breakfast.
