  My love for this recipe all started years ago when we would grab breakfast at this little placed called Coffee Mill in Lake Geneva, WI.  They have a baked oatmeal on their menu that we fell in love with.  What we loved about it is that is came in a mug topped with greek yogurt and cranberries.  The oatmeal also was a “drier” texture.   The yogurt on top of the oatmeal balanced out the dry texture making it PERFECT.  We attempted to make this same recipe at home and kept on failing at getting the texture just like the Coffee Mill.  I have tried over and ..read more

Last week we decided last minute we wanted to BBQ.  We didn’t have much time so ins ..read more
