Ingredients:
1 cup oats
2 cups water
2 tablespoons crystallized ginger or 2 tablespoons candied ginger, fine diced
1 cup canned peaches in juice
sugar (optional) or sugar substitute, to taste (optional)
milk (optional) or yogurt (optional) or cream, to taste (optional)
Directions:
Bring water to boil in a small saucepan; add oatmeal and cook 1 minute (if you want you can use the peach juice as part of your 2 cups of liquid).
Add finely chopped ginger to the pot (be sure to cut small as it swells quite a bit); continue to cook another 2-3 minutes.
Add peaches and cook oatmeal until desired doneness, about 2-4 minutes depending on your grain and eating preferences.
Serve topped with sweetener, milk, yogurt or cream, again according to your tastes.
