coconut milk and shredded coconut
diced apples and cinnamon
raisins and cinnamon

That sounds really good and conforting. I love Earth Balance too, but I can't get it at my local grocery store anymore. Or at least I can't get it at the grocery store that is closet to my house. Do you think this cold be made in a crock pot over night?
I don't see why not!
I used to hate to make oatmeal because I either burned the bottom waiting for it to cook in a pot, or had to stir and microwave several times in small batches. This requires no effort in the morning and that is the time I need that benefit most!
We get our Earth Balance through the co-op. I order a case about every other month. If you're interested in that, Frankferd Farms sells it by the tub or case and will ship it to you. I don't know how I would do it if I didn't have wholsesale, case lot pricing! I've just switched everyone to it because it is easier and there is no worry about someone getting the wrong piece of toast.
