How to Make Banana Oatmeal

  1. Break 1 ripe banana into chunks and place in a small blender jar.
  2. Add 1/2 cup of skim milk (or your preferred milk) to the blender jar.
  3. Blend until completely smooth and creamy.
  4. Pour 1/2 cup of dry rolled oats into a microwave-safe bowl.
  5. Pour the banana mixture over the oats.
  6. Stir well to ensure all the oats are thoroughly coated.
  7. Microwave on high for 90 seconds.
  8. Remove from microwave and stir well.
