Sounds really good, went to sainsburys and they had mullerlight 6 packs for £1.49 and just happened to pick up some porridge oats so going to do that for breckie in the morning.

I tried it this morning with toffee muller.
I added chopped bananas and it was really yummy. I was so full, I actually left some!
I actually felt so full that I could only eat fruit for lunch and left my quiche!
Tomorrow I am going to do it with cherry yoghurt.
Thanks again Donnie.

Just had it for breakfast and used a vanilla yogurt with cherry sauce and it was delicious even though I had to count the sins for the yogurt was just the same as having jam! Was really greedy and had a banana sliced on it as well...
Yes, you could, but it is an expensive way of doing things. I just checked one supermarket website - Oats So Simple, plain, family pack, worked out at 46.1p per 100g. A large bag of supermarket own brand rolled oats was 8p per 100g.
The only difference in the ingredients is that Oats So Simple has lecithin added as a stabiliser to stop it boiling over in the microwave.
Years ago I used to make the original Bircher-Benner muesli - this consisted of oats soaked in water overnight, then a grated apple and some condensed milk added.
If you look up muesli in Wikipedia you can see something about how the recipe came about.
More recently I made a SW version of it with Total instead of the condensed milk and a chopped apple (grating an apple is just too messy and takes too long!).
Now I am definitely going to try this idea - sounds great!!

Slow but sure....
I ran out of Mullerlite yoghurts - so I mixed the porridge oats with VLF natural yoghurt and mixed in a heaped teaspoon of lemon curd - delicious, not quite as sweet but it had a nice sharp, lemony tartness, lovely....
I counted 1½ syns for the lemon curd.
You could also add a little sweetner if you prefer your porridge a bit sweeter.

You can use 28g of Ready Brek Original but you should have 1 Ryvita Dark Rye/Original/ Sesame Crispbread to make up the fibre content.
But, I don't think the porridge will be as thick because Ready Break is such a thin porridge to start with - it's best to use 'proper' porridge oats really.
