Right after I posted my Pinterest Fail with refrigerator Oatmeal, my sister-in-law Jackie told me she had made a really good version of of it that I had to try. Of course I was skeptical because of my last attempt, plus, this required me to use fresh raspberries. Raspberries are a precious commodity to me especially this time of year, so putting so many of them in a recipe I was afraid might fail worried me. So it took me several months before I was able to get my courage up (and to convince Bill who greatly disliked the last version).
Turns out they were WAY better than the first one. We both ate the entire serving and Bill even wondered the next morning if I had made more. So if you are going to try refrigerator oatmeal I strongly suggest this one over all the others!
