Rainy, Cold Saturdays

It's rainy and cold outside today- the perfect makeup for an oatmeal creation. I'm thinking of "Got the Blues". It really is such a great combo of blueberries and streusel. I always add just a little milk to mine...
Ok, so now with some nutritious food in my system, my brain has turned on.... And in my classic routine of multi-tasking, I am working on our new product launch... Visions of loaded baked potaotes have been dancing in my head as of late!
So, picture this...We have over 40 toppings for cereal, parfaits and oatmeal- How about lots of toppings for potatoes. Chorizo, cheese, sour cream and green chilis for one. Chicken, Ranch dressing, bacon and green onion for another. Truly, the list could be exhaustive!
Don't even get me started on sweet potaotes...A customer suggestion was Cinnamon Toast Crunch on top- add a little maple syrup and maybe some pecans. WOW! Nutella on a sweet potato? I'm taking that one to the test kitchen.
Stayed tuned for more scrumptious ideas....
