Here’s an easy one for you:
If you eat oatmeal regularly, this is simply a great one to have in your repertoire. It’s super easy, undeniably tasty, and can be made with minimal ingredients. In a desperate situation, you could prepare this with just three ingredients: water, oats, and bananas. That version might be slightly boring, but it would certainly get the job done.

Variations:
Peanut Butter & Banana: Okay, so this is already listed as a variation of Peanut Butter Oatmeal. It’s so good, I’ll list it twice.
Chocolate Banana: Replace milk with chocolate milk (like Silk Dark Chocolate Almond Milk) OR stir in a couple spoonfuls of cocoa powder. Omit cinnamon.
Banana Raisin: Add raisins.
Jammin’ Banana: Swirl in your favorite jam when serving.
Coconut Banana: Use coconut milk for your liquid. Top with shredded coconut when serving.
Honey-Nut Banana: Add peanut butter and honey when serving.
Banana + [insert other fruit here]: Banana pairs well with several kinds of fruits, like strawberries or blueberries.
Spiced Banana: Replace cinnamon with pumpkin pie or apple pie spices (or simply use nutmeg, allspice, etc.). 1/4 a teaspoon would probably work best.
Loaded Banana Oatmeal: Can’t make up your mind? Top it with EVERYTHING.
