I love love love Mickey D's Oatmeal...its one of the best oatmeals I have ever had. I always think of oatmeal as a comfort food kind of breakfast.. Warming, filling, and just down right good.. Well in my quest to make my own oatmeal kinda like Mickey D's I found this recipe that I tried recently.. and loved..
