Orange Oatmeal

Okay, I know this is kinda weird, but it worked!

I made some Quaker Oats oatmeal today for a quick lunch, and as usual, it was too thick. Figures.
I was peeling an orange for my daughter when the oatmeal came out of the microwave, so I thought, "Hmm, I guess I'll add some orange juice to loosen it up a little."

And so, I did. I squeezed about half an orange on the oatmeal, mixed it up.
It was the perfect thickness!
I was afraid that it would taste nasty, but it didn't.
It hid the bland taste of the oatmeal, with just a little taste of the orange.
I may actually be able to tolerate oatmeal now!

I tossed the pulp to my daughter, who doesn't like oatmeal (honestly, I don't blame her).
Perfect exchange!

Note to self: Try with other fresh juices!
 Note to you: You should try it!
