This recipe sounds so good…I didn’t have any pomegranates so I tweaked it a bit. I used fresh blueberries and Celestial Seasonings True Blueberry tea. The orange peel tastes so good with the blueberries. I also added a little cinnamon but its fine without it. Thanks for the recipe I love pomegranate so I can’t wait to try it.

I think both are contenders but I’m leaning more towards your first creation.

I think both look really good, but the trail blazin oats seems more “accessible”–the ingredients are all easy to find whereever and whenever, the ingredients are less expensive, and I think the recipe will appeal to more populations (i.e. kids).

I think both should be in your cookbook though! YUM!

This one is super creative and I can’t wait to try it. I called mine “Oat of the Ordinary”–had to go with an oat pun!

Hey Mo! Can I call you Mo? :~P
I went with this one. It was tastier, lighter and more seasonal. Plus it got more votes on twitter. :~)

Lemon poppy is genius! I hope they collect and shoot out all the ideas so we can see them.

What did you end up submitting? I didn’t come by to stalk your recipes until I was done–I only had one idea, lemon poppyseed “muffin” oatmeal: just lemon juice, sugar, poppy seeds, and almond extract. Tasty! But yours were very creative and beautifully photographed!

I’m sure you mean “squeeze” rather than “squeezing.” You probably didn’t realize you were cutting and pasting a typo from your previous post.

I vote for this one, especially since the health benefits of pomegranates have been reported all over the place lately. Seems to make a good pairing with the health benefits from oatmeal. Good luck!

Definitely the trailblazin’ one… though I think this one looks YUMMY too!

I vote for this one, Roni. Pomegranates are “in” these days so that will give it the popular appeal, and it looks beautiful. I’m sure it tastes wonderful too! And wasn’t the other one more points? So that is also appealing to me about this one.

Ahh the oranges went into the toddler’s lunch! There’s no WAY I’m wasting an orange just for the peel! LOL

And it’s got that color appeal too — just gorgeous. I’d serve orange slices on the side, so not to waste.

I haven’t tried either one, but this one sounds more original. The pomegranate, orange peel, and mint sounds really tasty, I’m going to have to give this a try.
