Homemade Instant Oatmeal Packets

To prepare 6 baggies, first combine 4 cups old fashioned oats (NOT quick cooking) and 3/4 tsp salt in a food processor OR blender and grind them (in 2 batches if necessary) to the consistency of wheat germ.
Scoop 1/2 cup portions into separate ziploc baggies. Flavor each one (MIX INS BELOW), then seal and shake to mix. You can mark each one with a perma marker if you'd like.

ADD INS:
Cinnamon Raisin: 1 tsp sugar, 1 Tbsp raisins, dash of cinnamon.
Brown Sugar Spice: 1 tsp packed brown sugar, a dash each of ground cinnamon, nutmeg, & clove.
Apple Pie: 1 tsp apple pie spice, and 2 Tbsp chopped dried apple.
