Finally delicious I can eat!
I am unlucky enough to have many medical issues including stage 4 kidney disease from a rare autoimmune disease. I can’t eat much but I am a full-time rv-er and outdoor enthusiast. Finding this “breakfast” has been a lifesaving calorie meal. It’s more perfect than you’ll ever know! I balance between too much and too little potassium but I love bananas so much. This meal (2 meals for me) allows me luxury you can’t possibly imagine! Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!
Oatmeal!
I usually do grocery store instant oatmeal packs, I thought I'd fancy it up and it was a great choice! Much less work and tasted a lot better than grocery store brand (name withheld ;) ). I did really like peanut butter sachet but would have preferred bigger banana chunks.

Satisfying, hearty - but “BYOM”, bring your own milk
I enjoyed this oatmeal- I reordered it because it’s a nice breakfast both in terms of calories and taste. Banana flavor very mild, I almost didn’t notice it. Easy to make and the portion size is right for one person. Directions were accurate- I made this oatmeal while camped out to climb Middle Sister in Oregon. My campsite was at an altitude of 6400 feet. However, I kind of wish this oatmeal came with milk powder the way the granola does. Can be kind of gummy unless you add extra water since it’s oats plus you squeeze a packet of peanut butter into it! I brought milk powder (Nestle Nido) which is my go-to for all backpacking cooking involving milk. I reconstituted my milk powder and poured it in the pouch with this oatmeal since I like my oatmeal with some milk or nondairy milk to give it some liquid for easier, less viscous texture and to help me hydrate.

Thank you for the review, Gabrielle! We are so glad you enjoyed our Peanut Butter & Banana Oatmeal. We try to accommodate a range of dietary restrictions when creating our recipes, hence the lack of milk in this meal. Adding milk powder is a great idea though! We will certainly be sharing that food hack!
Delicious
