[Oat recipes(With sprites!)]

One shift when the botany department were busy growing lube melons i decided to help the poor chef out by growing some much needed wheat in the garden.

My attempts at improving the potency of my wheat crop instead resulted in me gazing upon a few stalks of the humble oat; Avena sativa.

To my dismay the chefs employed by Nanotrasen seem to have never seen an oat in their lives and have no idea how to cook even a simple oatmeal porridge!

I suggest adding a few oat based recipes as well as an oatmeal reagent produced by grinding the oats.

Here are the two recipes i had in mind:

Oatmeal porridge 

Suggested recipe:

• 10u Oatmeal
• 5u Water
• 1u Salt

Suggested machine: Microwave

Oatmeal balls

This recipe might not be all that familiar to players outside of Scandinavia, but it is a classic oat based pastry around these parts. It's the perfect food item to make when a radiation storm blesses you with the delightful Swedish accent, bork bork!

Here is a snippet from wikipedia:

Quote

Oatmeal ball (Danish: Havregrynskugle, Swedish: Chokladboll) is a type of unbaked pastry that is a popular Danish and Swedish confectionery.

The Oatmeal ball is usually slightly smaller than a golf ball and consists of oatmeal, sugar, cocoa,[1] vanilla sugar, butter, and sometimes a small amount of coffee (some like to mix in a splash of cream to make them creamier and softer), which is mixed to a compact mass. Balls are formed and then rolled in nib sugar, shredded coconut,[1] or sprinkles.

Suggested recipe:

• 10u Oatmeal
• 5u Sugar
• 5u Cocoa 
• 5u Coffee

Suggested machine: Candy maker

It's also might also be worth considering adding a bag of 30u oatmeal to the flour locker at roundstart so the chef may cook a few bowls of oatmeal porridge for breakfast. The bag could be a simple palette swapped flour bag(like the rice bag currently is), or i could create a new sprite.

Do you have thoughts about my suggestion, critique of my sprites or perhaps another great oat recipes you'd like to suggest? Post below!
