"This is perfect for a lazy Saturday morning breakfast. As I didn't have (nor do we care for) the wheat germ or flax seeds, I left them out. Also made it with self-rising flour, as I was out of plain, so I eliminated the baking powder, baking, soda, and salt. This coffee cake is everything I hoped it would be: chocked full of blueberries, subtle flavor of bananas, with a hint of cinnamon. Who could ask for more?" — Sloopie1

Like many risotto recipes, this recipe (can we just call it ris-oat-to?) contains Parmigiano-Reggiano, butter, white wine, chicken stock, garlic, and spring onions. The process and results aren't very different, either. "Very flavorful, and, while labor-intensive with the standing and stirring, it was not at all hard to make. Will be making again," reviewer IvyK says.

I played around with this recipe, and it is quite forgiving," Buckwheat Queen says. "Any way you cook them, fried or baked, they come out perfectly. Fried was just more flavourful.

"The best waffle I have ever tasted," Laurie Audia says. "Crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. I always make extra and freeze them separately once they are completely cooled off. When I'm ready to eat another waffle at a later time, I place it in my toaster at the lowest setting and defrost mode. Once it pops up, I flip the waffle upside down and toast at the lowest heat setting. It's absolutely perfect each time!"

This recipe calls on quinoa, chickpeas, and oat bran to stretch ground chicken. But, for our purposes, ground oats work just as well as oat bran, says Linda T.

"This is the best meatloaf I ever made. I love the fact that it doesn't have flour or milk in it," reviewer fitbyforty says. "I haven't made meatloaf in probably three to five years, but this will be on the menu again soon. Love it!"

"This seemed like a pretty strange dish, but I saw the other ratings and decided to give it a shot. I left out the walnuts, but I love this recipe and have made it several times in the past few weeks, including for other family members," Ceola says. "The seaweed and the extra miso are pretty essential for a bit of seasoning. It's great for the single cook, or for using up an avocado."

"We absolutely loved this breakfast! I put it together last night and took it out of the refrigerator this morning while the oven was heating. I didn't have strawberries, so used blueberries both on the bottom and top," Tami says.
