Oatmeal

Lately I've been enjoying steel cut oats.  Here is the recipe:
Ingredients:  1 heaping cup of steel cut oats (looks kinda like grit for the birds), 1 cup water, 1 cup milk, 1 tsp. salt, 3 or 4 apples peeled and cut into chunks, 1/2 cup chopped walnuts, 1 TB cinnamon, 1 tsp vanilla extract.
Spray the inside of your crock pot with non-stick cooking spray.  Do it.  Do it or you'll be sorry later.  Add all ingredients.  Stir.  Cook on low for 7 or 8 hours.  My crock pot runs hot so I cook it for 6 hours.  If you cook it overnight you will wake up to a wonderful cinnamon and apple aroma.  Makes 6 servings.  Serve with sweeter and milk.  This oatmeal is so hearty you will not get hungry again for at least 6 hours.
