Porridge... during the lockdown I rediscovered it and now eat it almost every day.

I made Gordon Ramsays apple pie porridge this morning! OMG it was lovely.
proper stove top milk and oats, caramelised the apple with some butter and cinnamon

I've just started eating porridge. I never liked it before, but it turns out that adding a bit of salt makes all the difference! I make it with water and add salt, honey, almonds, raisins and sultanas.

Yeah, the seasoning for porridge can really transform it. The oats are just a base then you can add what you like.

Funnily enough I have stopped making porridge for the last couple of months and am just eating oats, milk and honey instead (left to soak and soften for 30 mins). I think I just hit porridge overload and now I need a mental break from it.

I'm pretty boring with porridge. 50g oats + 300ml milk - done slowly in a pan on the hob.

Drizzle over some local honey and enjoy

I've been eating a lot of porridge recently now that it's back on my diet plan. 100g of nice chunky oats, 220ml water, 220ml milk, 2tbs sweetener and then 5 minutes in the microwave. Comes out lovely and creamy.

You realise a rough portion is around 50g, so you're eating double that? Seems odd considering you mentioned being on a diet. Also, sweeteners? Bleurgh..

If that scares you I won't mention the pile of eggs and toast I eat alongside it.

Eat (pr)oats on the daily.

Mixed a Christmas Pudding into mine today.

Are you bulking or something?

No I'm just a relatively heavy guy doing a lot of cardio/weights alongside my eating.

Love porridge. I have mine with milk, microwaved then sprinkled with dried banana slices.

Add some crunchy peanut butter whilst cooking and sprinkle some cinnamon on before tucking in, thank me later.

If a hell exists, you are surely going there.

A pile of eggs and toast... every day?

You're going to make me blush

I wouldn't go that far but I am slightly bigger than your usual IT department bloke.
