Also known as Irish or Scottish Oatmeal, steel-cut oatmeal, takes longer to cook than rolled oats or instant oatmeal, but its nutty flavor and chewy texture are well worth the time. This version, topped with orange marmalade and toasted pecans, is very tasty and is packed with healthy vitamins. What a warming way to start an active day!

• 1 tablespoon orange marmalade
• 1 tablespoon toasted pecans, chopped
