Do you usually start your day with overnight oatmeal or cooked oatmeal? We all know that oats are natural ingredients that offer a range of long-term health benefits. So, having a nutritious bowl of healthy oatmeal is definitely an amazing idea. It’s no wonder that many swear by this simple yet versatile health food that’s packed with protein and a host of vitamins and minerals like iron, zinc, and phosphorus that boost immunity. Oatmeal is also great for gut health, as it’s a good source of fiber. In addition, research has shown that oats are effective in lowering total blood cholesterol, which may reduce the risk of heart disease. It’s safe to say that oatmeal is great for your overall well-being!
Now, if you’re a big fan of oatmeal, you would definitely have tried Quaker oatmeal. Quaker has 3 types of oatmeal: instant oatmeal, quick cooking, rolled oatmeal, and they can all be made into delicious treats, aside from your basic overnight oatmeal or cooked oatmeal. Now, are you excited about all the great things you can do with Quaker oatmeal? Well, sure you do.
Granola

It’s easy to make and store, and certainly makes for a hassle-free, convenient, and enjoyable breakfast item.
