1 cup (dry) old fashioned oats
1/8 cup dried cherries
1 scoop Bavarian Chocolate Pro-Rated protein powder
1 packet Splenda

cook the oatmeal
stir in the cherries and powders
eat

Technically, I used dried cherries (no sugar added), not black cherries, but Cherry Chocolate Oatmeal doesn't sound as good...

In case you can't find the nutrition info for the cherries:

1/4 cup Dried Cherries provides:
136 calories, 1 g protein, 0 g fat, 27 g sugar, 1 g fibre, 30% DV vitamin A.

I only used about half of that portion. Plus, I get mine at Whole Foods, where they are JUST dried cherries, nothing else. Many have added sugar, so take the above nutrition as a worst case, just in case.
