how many of you guys put plain dry oatmeal straight from the box into you protein shakes? does the state of it being not cooked decrease the amount of carbs it will give? so.. its like your drinking pieces of dry oatmeal?> is this recommended for people who need those extra carbs?

The quaker oats site says that it is fine to eat the oats as they are in their dry form. Before putting it in your shake you will probably want to blend the oatmeal into a fine powder as well as you can. And its a little more convienent to drink down if you can deal with the consistancy.

by doing this dont stir your protein shake by fork or spoon, after you blend the oats into a fine powder toss into a blender with your scoop of protein and 2 cups of milk and blend. that way it alleviates the clumps and thick consistancy.

I use a coffee grinder to powder my oatmeal. I powder like 1-2lbs at a time. This is so I can just grab and go.
