    This recipe is a lifesaver! I made it savory with some roasted vegetables and it was a filling and healthy dinner.

  • Demetris Sengermclaughlin

    I never thought something so simple could be so delicious! I added a pinch of brown sugar and some berries – perfect!

  • Germaine Buckridge

    The key is to stir constantly! Mine stuck to the bottom the first time, but it was perfect the second time around.
