Directions:

Put 7 cups of the oats into a large bowl. Blend the remaining 3 cups of oats in a blender until powdery, then add to the 7 cups of oats. Add salt, brown sugar, and creamer to the oats. Stir until well mixed. Measure 1/2 cup of the oatmeal mixture into each snack-sized plastic baggie and seal. Makes approximately 24 servings.
