This recipe is adapted Alton Browns recipe on Food Network.  http://www.foodnetwork.com/recipes/alton-brown/overnight-oatmeal-recipe/reviews/index.html.
I have been trying to help my husband get healthier by eating oatmeal. I found that the quick oats where giving me stomach cramps and my cousin told me to switch to Steel Cut Oats. John even liked the texture and taste of these better.  I have tried to get up in time to fix him oatmeal before he goes to work. I have not had much success in waking up when he does.  I seem to wake up just as he is leaving most times.  So when I saw this recipes I said to myself this is the answer to my dilemma.

Make sure you use Steel Cut Oats. Steel Cut Oats are hardier. They hold up better to the long cooking time.
In the morning remove oats and add whatever "toppings" you prefer. Just note that dried fruit adds a little sugar to the oats. So tastes to measure how much you add.
