The Most Important Meal of the Day (Revisited, Again)

ThirdAge has some ideas for a healthy breakfast -

• A bowl of steel-cut oatmeal topped with fruit and walnuts.
• A bowl of high-fiber, whole-grain cereal such as Fiber One, Shredded Wheat, or Cheerios with milk and sliced banana, strawberries, blueberries or other fruit.
• Six or 8 ounces of 1 percent yogurt with blueberries and sunflower seeds.
• A whole-grain English muffin with peanut butter.
• A one egg plus one egg white or egg substitute omelet with whole-grain toast and orange slices.

I guess it's important to cut your oatmeal with steel, so if you do it yourself, check your tools. I'm weird and just buy Quaker Oats at the supermarket. Thanks to the internet, I just looked up what "steel-cut oats" are -

What are Steel Cut Oats and how are they different from other types of Quaker® Oats?

Steel Cut Oats are whole oats that have not been rolled into flakes. Instead, they are cut approximately into thirds. Cooking time is 30 minutes and the texture is heartier than rolled oats. Steel Cut Oats are also known as Scotch Oats, Pinhead Oats (in Great Britain because they resemble the size and shape of the head of large pin) and Irish Oats.

Quaker® Old Fashioned Oats are whole oats that have been rolled to flatten them. Quick Quaker® Oats and Quaker® Instant Oats are made from Steel Cut Oats that have been rolled a little thinner than Old Fashioned Oats so they cook faster.

All forms of Quaker® Oats, including Steel Cut, Old Fashioned, Quick, and Instant Oats are whole grains. That means they are equally nutritious because they supply all parts of the oat grain including the bran, endosperm and germ. The different size and shape of the oats only affects the cooking time and texture.
