Watermelon and oatmeal- two entirely different temperatures and textures, yet blend so deliciously together. Watermelon, rather, watermelon juice is a refreshing, light strawberry-kiwi flavor that we used to cook rolled oats. The extra juice from cut-up watermelon this morning served as inspiration as we were contemplating what liquid to use to boil the oats in the stove-top pot. Water, juice, tea, or even coffee have all flavored oats well. If you don't have extra juice, pureeing the watermelon itself would work as well. Hmm, how would canteloupe do? Maybe a little thicker? Tomorrow's culinary experiment.
Watermelon Oatmeal
1/2 c rolled oats
1 c watermelon juice
1 sweetener
dash of cardamom
- Pour oats and juice in a stove pot pan. Bring to a boil, remove from and let thicken for several minutes. Add sweetener. Divide between two bowls and sprinkle on cardamom.
