Instructions

  1. Step 1

    In a medium saucepan, combine 1 cup rolled oats, 2 cups water, 1 cup milk, and 0.25 tsp salt. Bring to a boil over high heat, then reduce to medium-low.

  2. Step 2

    Simmer uncovered, stirring occasionally, until the oats are tender and the mixture is creamy, about 8-10 minutes. The oatmeal should thicken and look glossy.

  3. Step 3

    While the oats cook, hull and slice 1 cup strawberries into bite-sized pieces.

  4. Step 4

    Once the oatmeal is done, remove from heat and stir in 2 tbsp honey. Adjust sweetness to taste.

  5. Step 5

    Divide the oatmeal between two bowls and top each with half of the sliced strawberries. Serve warm.
