any way to make this microwaveable?
You can leave out the dried milk or use something in its place like organic powdered almond milk.
Sure! Just put the water and oatmeal in a bowl and microwave for about 1-2 minutes on high or until it thickens.
I left out the milk and use hot Almond milk instead of water.
