Oats & More Rolled Oats
What it is
Oats & More Rolled Oats are a versatile pantry staple made from whole grain oats. They are a good source of carbohydrates and are often used as a base for breakfast meals. The oats are processed by steaming and then rolling them flat, which helps them cook more evenly and quickly than steel-cut oats. This makes them a convenient choice for busy mornings.

To prepare a simple bowl of oatmeal, combine one part rolled oats with two parts liquid, such as water or milk, in a saucepan.
