Witht the Winter fast approaching and the mornings becoming darker and more cold, this is the time of year I like to eat something warm for breakfast to get me going in the morning. I have eaten Quaker's Oats so Simple for a couple of years now and the Golden Syrup are by far my favourite.

There are 10 sachets of porridge in every box and a box typically costs around £2. However, its very rare to find that these are not on special offer and I almost always manage to get these on a buy 1 get 1 free.

£2 is quite expensive when you think how much a bag of porridge oats is from the supermarket. However, I find that the sachets are so convenient and ensure that you end up with the right amount of porridge each time. Many a time I have used my own oats and have ended up with either too much or too little. The sachet can be used to measure the correct amount of milk so that you don't end up with your porridge being too runny or too thick either.

So, take a sachet from the box and rip of the top, Fill the milk up to just below the line as I find filling to the line makes the porridge too runny, and pop in the microwave for about 2 minutes. It really couldn't be easier! I find that I have to leave the porridge to cool for at least a minute or I burn my mouth, so I normally go and make the bed while the porridge is cooling.

You will find one sachet contains the following:

Calories - 216
Sugar - 16g
Fat - 5g
Saturates - 2g
Salt 0.5g

I think there are few things better to have for breakfast in the morning and I can't rate them highly enough. I wasn't a huge porridge fan before I started eating these, but they definitely have me turned. I believe a slightly healthier option would be to go for the Original flavour and add your own Golden Syrup, I find the oats too bland on their own.
