Chocolate Oatmeal Brownies

 Best thing about oatmeal is, it is really good for you.  Use it in place of bread crumbs in meatloaf.  Have a bowl of cooked oatmeal, add a little brown sugar and raisins or stir in some chopped prunes, chopped nuts, fresh fruit etc… Oatmeal can easily be ground up to a flour, to use as a replacement in part of the flour in recipes, like pancakes.
