This recipe is incredibly delicious, but it assumes that you have access to a microwave oven on the road.
1. Using a disposable plastic spoon1, add a heaping spoonful of mango relish2 to a 20-oz. microwaveable paper bowl1.
2. Add approximately ⅓ cup of instant oatmeal3.
3. Add approximately ¼ cup of powdered milk3. (optional)
4. Add approximately ¼ stick of soft butter4.
5. Including the liquid, add a 15-oz. can of sweet peas5.
6. Mix.
7. Microwave on high for 2 minutes. (It's okay to leave the plastic spoon in the bowl while microwaving.)
8. Mix.
9. Serve while still hot including the disposable plastic spoon.
1 At Wal-Mart®, I’ve purchased Dixie® brand 20-oz. microwavable paper bowls in packages of 30 for US$3.38 and Diamond® brand plastic spoons in packages of 48 for US$1.14.
2 Available at East Indian grocery stores.
3 Approximately ⅓ cup of instant cream-of-wheat, or instant grits could be substituted for the Instant oatmeal. Among my favorites are dark red kidney beans / instant grits and diced potatoes / instant cream-of-wheat. Instant rice approximately equal to the amount of liquid in the can could also be substituted, in which case the preparation should be allowed to sit for 5 minutes after microwaving so that the rice has time to absorb the liquid after which you may want to microwave it again for 30 seconds to reheat it.
4 For a good method for dispensing butter while traveling, see “Fresh Butter on the Road” (http://LLBest.com/ButterOnTheRoad.htm).
5 A 15-oz. can of almost any other type of vegetable could be substituted for the potatoes.
