Yummy oatmeal with raisins: affordable, easy & hearty breakfast (recipe)

Oatmeal with raisins is an easy hot breakfast and tastes like oatmeal cookies and milk in a bowl. :p

3 cups water

1/2 tsp salt (optional)

1-1/3 cups quick oats

2/3 cups raisins

1/2 tsp cinnamon

Bring water (with salt) to a boil.  Add oats and raisins. Reduce heat to a simmer. Stir to get rid of any lumps.  Add cinnamon. After 3 minutes (longer if NOT using quick oats), remove from heat and cover for a minute.  

Serve in 4 bowls. Top with cold milk and maple syrup or brown sugar.  Delicious!
