[Sca-cooks] oatmeal/hot cereal?

[Anne-Marie Rousseau]

hi!

has anyone had success making oatmeal/hot cereal on the fire? I'm hoping to find a 
method that involves real oats (not the rolled kind, etc) that I can start a fire, 
set it burbling and ignore for a bit while I chop up dried fruit, etc

1. what kind of oats/grains did you use?
2. what were your favorite add ins?
3. I remember vaguly a recipe for a hot cereal dish from le menagier? maybe? anyone 
have access to their books who can look it up?

bascially I'm looking for an easy breakfast dish to do during a weeklong re-
enactment event. the rest of camp may be happy living off smoked fish, hard boiled 
eggs and such but me, I needs me some fiber ;)

thanks!
