Cranberry-Almond Oatmeal
POINTS® Value: 4 / Servings: 4

2 Tbsp slivered almonds
4 cups water
2 cup uncooked old-fashioned oats
1/2 cup dried cranberries (or dried cherries)
1/2 tsp ground cinnamon

Place almonds in a medium saucepan and set pan over medium-high heat. Cook, shaking the pan frequently, until the almonds are golden brown, about 2 to 3 minutes. Add the remaining ingredients and bring mixture to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer until the liquid is absorbed, about 3 minutes. Yields about 1 cup per serving.
