Microwave Instructions:
Add the rolled oats and milk into a medium microwave-safe bowl. Stir and make sure all oats have been submerged in milk.
Cook in the microwave on high for 2 - 3 minutes. Then, to avoid spillage, add one or two additional 15-second intervals until the oatmeal puffs up. If you are using quick oats: microwave for 1 minute 30 seconds.

Can substitute fresh egg white with 2 - 3 tablespoon of liquid boxed egg whites.Can use quick oats, but the texture will be softer. COOK TIME WILL DECREASE (read my instructions closely).
