WFMW: My Morning Oatmeal
Today’s Works for Me Wednesday Tip comes from my kitchen!
I don’t do that- I have a much yummier alternative. After I dice up the apple, I put it into a container and then fill it with orange juice. The apple chunks “steep” in the juice over night and do not brown. Then all I do is drain them before adding the chunks to the oatmeal. It adds a wonderful hint of orange to the apple. As an added bonus- I sprinkle brown sugar in the oatmeal.
Oh, Yum.
Not only do I streamline breakfast prep but add a little bit extra that makes the kiddos feel special.
Side note: Today I added a few cranberries to the oatmeal too and thought perhaps next time I will try steeping the diced apple in cranberry juice.
And that’s what’s working here today. Check out the dozens upon double dozens of other great Works For Me Wednesday Tips over at Shannon’s.
Have a Great Day!

11:39 AM, 2007-Sep-12 .. Posted by AnonymousGreat tip! I've heard you can use pineapple juice, too, but I think we would like o.j. better! Thanks for the info.

7:46 AM, 2007-Sep-13 .. Posted by AnonymousMom2fur of Sortafrugal.blogspot.com here. Great idea! It's the acid in the orange juice that does the trick, so I think cranberry juice would work fine, too. Sometimes, if I only use half an apple for something, I rub the other half with a little lemon juice to keep it white. I've also heard of letting the apple pieces sit in water with a little vinegar, but yuck, I can't help thinking they'd taste like vinegar, LOL!
