RECIPE NOTES

  1. In accordance with Armed Forces food safety protocol, reference the Produce Guideline Card for specific wash, sanitize, rinse and handling instructions for each fruit/vegetable in the recipe; this is critically important to ensure the safety of this food.
  2. It is pertinent that the oatmeal ingredients be chilled at least 3 hours to insure that the oats absorb the moisture, to blend flavors fully and to obtain proper consistency. Allowing the oatmeal set overnight is preferable.
  3. Overnight oatmeal is a cold cereal that can be served chilled on the breakfast line in a steam table pan or as individual servings for grab and go.
  4. Serving Suggestion: This item would make a great grab and go option. In a single serve plastic cup, add ¾ cup of the chilled oatmeal and top with 1 tablespoon of almond slices and/or sprinkle of cinnamon.
