    Agree 100% on DIY Instant oatmeal. The sodium content of 2 pks (1 serving in my house) is outrageous, IMO. For medical reasons we must maintain a low sodium diet. A FWIW …. Here's my approach. There may be something it it that's worthwhile.
    4 cups rolled oats
    4 cups rolled oats, ground in an electric blender
    1 cup brown sugar
    1 1/2 cup instant non-fat dry milk
    1/2 tsp salt (I omit)

    To prepare, empty contents into a cereal bowl. Fill the jar to the bottom of the rings with water. Empty into the bowl. Stir. Heat in microwave for 90 seconds. (Your time may vary based on your microwave) Remove from microwave. Add any additional ingredients that you prefer. Add maple syrup or any other sweetener that you prefer. Add fruits, nuts, jello powder flavors, etc. Stir well for creamy consistency. Enjoy!

    Add whole rolled oats to a large mixing bowl. Add the brown sugar next and mix well. (Adding at this point helps prevent clumping that happens if the other dry ingredients are added first.) Add ground oats, mix well. Add milk powder and mix well.
    Add 2 heaping 1/3 cups to a half pint mason jar. Recipe fills a dozen (case) of those jars.

    Notes: Initially make 24 jars (2 cases) of the mix. Stack the 2 cases on a pantry shelf. As jars are emptied, return dry jars to case on top. When the 1st 12 jars are used, set aside for refilling. After being refilled, place under the case currently being refilled.

    Keep all sorts of dry ingredients beside your jar stack. I don't pre-mix, as I may want raisins and someone else wants slices of banana on any given day.

    Hope this is useful for someone.

    I know I’ve said this before but boy I wish you’d put the recipes in the drop-down box. I don’t have time to search all over to write these down. Do you have a great videos and I think you’d have more subscribers if you put the recipes were there more accessible for people to use it to find.
