A healthy, hearty breakfast makes a big difference in this house. We were recently given some Irish cut oats. They were good, but took forever to cook. Then I found this recipe....
Prep Time: 12 hours
Cook time: 15 minutes
Serves: 8-10
Cost: approx. $3.50
4 cups Irish oats ($1.50)
5 cups milk ($2.00)
vanilla
cinnamon
Mix 4 cups of Irish oats in 5 cups of milk. Cover and let soak overnight in fridge.
In heavy saucepan bring oats, milk, 2 tsp. vanilla to a boil. Reduce heat and let simmer 10 minutes or until oats have softened stirring often. Add in 1/4-1/2 cup brown sugar and simmer 5 more minutes. Sprinkle with cinnamon and serve.

I am enjoying your blog for I am need of learning how to make my food budget stretch even more, since I have recently left my outside job. I found you through your comment you left on my blog, I am so glad you stopped by. Talk to you again, April.
So were the better that "American" oats?
Sniz, they are not better, but just different. Smaller sized oats with kind of a nutty flavor. It's a nice change from the Quaker Oats guy.
