Notes

Want to soak your oats for improved nutrition?  No problem.  Omit the milk and replace it with 1 cup of water.  The night before or 12 hours before preparing the dish, mix the oats, water, kefir, or yogurt and stir well to guarantee all the oats are moist.  Cover with a towel and let soak in a warm place.
