All the fruit at this time of year! I love stone fruits like cherries, apricots and peaches. It makes me sad that I only get to enjoy them for a few months out of the year (I know, I can always eat frozen and canned fruit, but it isn’t really the same!! Fresh cherries, fresh peaches are where it’s at in the summertime.)
Baked oatmeal is my favorite thing ever because it’s convenient, filling, and easy to meal prep. I wouldn’t bother to eat a relatively-wholesome breakfast if it wasn’t already prepared, in the fridge, ready to go first thing in the morning.
I don’t ever reheat this — I just grab it from the fridge and eat it cold. You, however, can reheat this if you want. I suspect that baked oatmeal reheats particularly well.
