Baked Oatmeal
Waking up on the weekend should feel luxurious. But that kind of goes out the window when you’ve got play dates to set up and swimming lessons, gymnastics and karate class to get to. But once in while, if you’re lucky, there are aunts, uncles or grandparents that pick the kids up for a sleepover. Those are the mornings you get to indulge your passion for slow baked oatmeal in vanilla and brown sugar. Sure, you miss the kids but they’ll be back – so you might as well get in all the luxury you can before they’re home.

- 2 eggs or 1/2 cup egg substitute, lightly beaten
- 3 eggs, lightly beaten
- 2 teaspoon vanilla
- 1/3 cup firmly packed brown sugar
How to make it:
- Heat oven to 350º F. Spray 8‑inch square glass baking dish with cooking spray.
