Showing Original Post only (View all)Oatmeal - I hate it but I'm gonna have to eat it [View all]
Just found out that my bad cholesterol is high and my good cholesterol is low. I've been vegetarian since I was 16 (42 now), I don't eat butter, I don't drink milk (I use soy or almond milk), I use extra virgin olive oil when I saute, I eat a lot of garlic... point is, I have to start incorporating even more good cholesterol foods into my diet and one of those is oatmeal. I have food issues when it comes to texture and oatmeal is one of those foods I can't stand because of the texture. Is there a good replacement or a way to make it better?
Any tips would be appreciated.

Sorry... I had always thought it was non-dairy. Pretty far down on its list of ingredient is this --
