Question re European breakfast - hot cereal
Weird, I know. But when my husband and I have traveled (mostly Finland and Russia) it seems a standard hot breakfast cereal has been on offer in the hotels, and it is not oatmeal (or at least not the 'normal' oatmeal you find from Quaker Oats). Nor is it some sort of cream of wheat.

My husband loves the stuff. Can anyone help me find a recipe for it, if you know what I'm talking about? :hi:

I'm going to cross-post this in the food section...

1. I prefer hardtack and a cup of black coffee with no sugar.

4. It may actually be oatmeal but not the Quaker Oats kind
Try McCann's steal cut oat meal. Big difference from Quaker's. Most good super markets carry it.

and quinoa to mix together...
