I've had a cylinder of steel cut oats in my pantry for months, but had not used it due to sheer laziness.  Steel cut oats are meant for a weekend breakfast when you've got a little extra time to sip coffee and let them cook.The beautiful thing about them though, is you can make a lot ahead of time and reheat them the next day.  The recipe I made makes 4 servings, but you can keep them plain and add in what you want to make them more interesting.  Below is what I came up with this morning.  Delightful!Ingredients:1 cup steel cut oats4 cups water2 tsp. cinnamon2 tsp. ginger paste2 tsp. real maple syrup1/2 cup chopped almonds Directions:Boil water then add 1 cup steel cut oats and boil for 5 minutes.Turn heat down and cook oats uncovered for another 25-30 minutes until the water is all soaked up.Stir in ginger paste, cinnamon, maple syrup and almonds before serving.Makes 4 servings.  Nutrition facts per serving: 180 calories, 7.9 grams fat, 22 grams carbohydrate, 6.3 grams protein, 3.9 grams fiber, 0 mg cholesterol, 4.7 mg sodium.
