Oatmeal on the Cheap

I don't even know if I have mentioned it before, but a big savings in our monthly grocery budget is oatmeal. A big 1 kilo bag of it is between 5 and 6 bucks and will last a month. Considering that a box of cereal is the same price and will last a week, oatmeal is a good idea, even every few days.
Here is our tried and tested recipe:

Burton Oatmeal
(1 serving)
1/2 cup quick oats
1/2 cup milk
1/2 cup water
Handful of raisins or cranberrys (optional)

mix in a microwavable glass bowl (make sure you've room to spare because oatmeal grows). Microwave uncovered for 3 minutes, then stir. Microwave for 3 more minutes. Stir again and let sit for a minute or so.

We eat it with brown sugar and milk, but I've been tempted to try honey... mmmmm....
