You'll love waking up to this creamy cereal. You may need to alter the amount of water slightly to work with your slow cooker.

1 cup rolled oats
4 cups water
1/4 teaspoon sea salt

Cover and set to low. Cook overnight (10 to 12 hours).<br /><br /> Makes 3 to 4 servings.<br /><br /> Variation: Substitute steel cut oats for rolled oats and use 4 1/2 to 5 cups water.</p>
