Rating : - We use it as Oatmeal helper
My wife and I ate oatmeal every day, then took a cue from our in-laws and now use Red River in conjunction with "steel-cut" oatmeal (also called "pinhead" oatmeal)--the kind that takes 30 minutes to cook.

We make five servings (a weeks worth of breakfast for one of us) by boiling 5 cups of water to which we add 1 cup of steel-cut oatmeal. After boiling for five minutes (no cover) we then add 1/3 cup of Red River and cook on low heat for 30 more minutes.

At that ratio you can still taste the oatmeal and the Red River flavor is also equality present. The mixed cereal is also "creamier" than the Red River, but not as creamy as the oatmeal by itself. We love the addition of the other grains for the flavor, the texture, the taste and even the appearance.

We get McCann's Steel Cut Oatmeal, Traditional, 28-Ounce Tins (Pack of 4) on Amazon, but get the Red River from Canadasfood.com where they sell it by the case and shipping is only [$..] a case.
