Haven't tried this yet, but I'm interested to do so:

Homemade Instant Oatmeal Packets

1/4 c. instant ("Minute Oats") oatmeal
1/8 tsp. salt
1/2 tsp. sweetener such as sugar, to taste (optional)

Add to plastic baggie, shake to mix, and you have an "instant oatmeal packet." Prepare as you would commercial instant oatmeal packets - place in bowl, add 1/2 c. boiling water, and allow to steep for 5 minutes.

For different flavors, the author suggests:

Cinnamon and Raisins:
Add 1/4 tsp. cinnamon and 2 doz. raisins per bag.

Blueberries and Cream:
Add 1 Tbs. non-dairy creamer and 1 1/2 doz. dried blueberries per bag.
