Ok, so just to clarify, if I wanted to make the meatloaf with mushroom
gravy, that is in another thread here - where it calls for oatmeal, I use
rolled oats? Where I mainly see this term is for baked goods and the
finished pictures actually make it difficult to see the actual oat pieces.
The term oat flakes used here would have me thinking of something like
Kelloggs Corn Flakes, only oats. :-))
