To prepare, empty the contents of the packet into a bowl. Add about 1 cup of boiling water or milk. Stir well and let it stand for a few minutes until the oatmeal reaches your desired consistency. You can adjust the amount of liquid to make it thicker or thinner. Some people prefer to microwave it; if so, add the packet contents to a microwave-safe bowl with the liquid and heat on high for 1 to 2 minutes, stirring halfway through.
