Great Stuff!! have bought this multiple times from Amazon and plan to keep buying it. Add a few raisins, a table spoon of real maple syrup, some cinnamon, chopped walnuts... its great... For something extra, add a chopped banana or chopped apple. Recommend this!

The John McCanns Irish Oats are great to cook overnight in a slow cooker with apples, raisins, cinnamon, maple syrup or any combination of dried fruit. It falls in three categories ease of preparation, filling and tasty.

I love a healthy nutritious breakfast but hate spending any time on preparation. I was delighted to find McCann's Steel Cut Irish Oatmeal, Quick and Easy since I prefer steel cut to rolled oats. I have this every morning (I posted a picture of the nutritional label) and prepare 3/8 of a cup of oatmeal with 3/4 cup of water in the microwave for 5 minutes but at 40% power to prevent over boiling. It gives me a really good consistency and I add Splenda, lots of cinnamon and canned pumpkin puree along with whatever fresh fruit I have around. It's delicious and for just over 300 calories, prepared this way, I have a breakfast that doesn't play havoc with my blood sugar and keeps me satisfied till lunch. I will admit that my little dog stands in line for her fair share of a couple of spoonfuls in her dish. She loves it and I think it is a nutritious way to start her day too.

This is the best fast cooking steel cut oatmeal on the market. I’ve tried them all in my 79 years as an oatmeal eater. All other 5 minute oatmeal pales in comparison to the texture, the nutrition and especially the taste of McCann’s Steel Cut Irish Oatmeal. It is the very best. I buy it by the case so I never run out!

Have always loved this oatmeal and especially the tin. The tin packaging keeps the oatmeal as fresh as possible. Highly recommend!

I've been having oatmeal for breakfast for years. Since my cholesterol is not excitingly high, I take oatmeal only on most weekdays, and have heartier breakfast on weekends. After reading some great reviews about Steel Cut oatmeal, I decided to give McCANN'S Steel Cut Irish Oatmeal, Quick & Easy, a try. Well it sure is different from the old fashioned rolled oats. It's quicker to cook (claim to take only 5 min). However, since I don't want to spend time watching oatmeal on the stove or microwave, I cook the McCANN's Quick & Easy version the same way I cook the old fashion oatmeal: in the previous night, add oatmeal and hot water to a pot, bring to a boil, them turn the stove off and cover the pot. The next morning reheat it in a bowl in the microwave for 2 min. This way it's quick, and it never boils over. The Steel Cut oat has finer but crunchier texture than the old fashioned rolled oats. It also tastes nuttier. Some people prefer the steel cut. I actually prefer the old fashion because it is gummier and mix better with some sweet addition such as fruits and jam. But since I usually just add maple syrup for a quick breakfast, the steel cut irish oatmeal is almost just as good. After all, one needs some change when having the same oat 200 days a year.

If you like oatmeal, you will love this!
