SUPER FOODS FOR IMMUNE/RAINS: OAT BRAN AND OATMEAL
OAT BRAN
A bowl of oat bran in the morning is a great way to start the day. You get fiber and complex carbohydrates, plus oat bran's anti-cholesterol power. You can eat oat bran by itself, or mixed with oatmeal or other grains. I like a mixture of oat bran and Scottish oats, seasoned with a little cinnamon powder. Sometimes I add just a little apple juice for a different taste.
To cook oat bran, bring 1 cup of water to a boil, stir in 1/2 cup of*oat bran. Cook over low heat for 5 to 10 minutes, or to taste. Stir occasionally, watch closely and add water if necessary.
OATMEAL
Like oat bran, oatmeal is great by itself or mixed with other grains. Use old-fashioned oats or raw oats from a health food store. Stay away from precooked oats. Experiment with the different varieties of oatmeal and find the one you like best. To cook oatmeal, bring 1 cup of water to a boil, stir in 1/2 cup of oatmeal. Cook over low heat for 3 to 5 minutes, or to taste. Stir occasionally, and add water if necessary. If you like a dryer, firmer oatmeal, cook for just a few minutes over a higher heat, stirring frequently. If you like a more souplike oatmeal, use more water and cook longer. Try mixing your oatmeal with cornmeal or couscous.
