DIY Microwave Oatmeal

Ingredients:
oats
cranberries, dried, sweetened
nuts, almonds
sugars, brown
spices, cinnamon, ground

Directions:
Put the oats, dried fruit, nuts, brown sugar, and cinnamon into a large jar, storage container, or Ziplock bag.
Shake well until all of the ingredients are thoroughly mixed together.
To cook a bowl of oatmeal, first give your jar a hearty shake to mix any ingredients that have settled to the bottom of the container.
Pour a rounded 1/3 cup of the oatmeal mixture into a deep cereal bowl.
If the bowl is too shallow, the oatmeal may overflow in the microwave.
Pour 2/3 cup of water into the bowl and stir well.
Microwave on high until the water is absorbed and the oats are tender, about 2 minutes.
Remove from the microwave and stir.
The oatmeal will thicken as it cools.
Add milk if desired.
Oats mixture makes about 7 individual servings of oatmeal.
