I make rolled old-fashioned oatmeal - quickly. I boil a cup of water in the microwave, then dump in 1/2 - 3/4 cup of old fashioned oats. A minute or so later, it's ready to eat. No actual cook time needed. (Since I don't carefully measure the oats, but dump it in from a heaped scoop, the thickness of my result varies. I should pay more attention, but I guess I don't care enough.) Add a little butter and brown sugar (and a dash of salt) and voila! Instant breakfast.
