In a medium saucepan, combine the rolled oats, milk, and a pinch of salt.

Place the saucepan over medium heat and bring the mixture to a gentle boil, stirring occasionally.

Reduce the heat to low and let it simmer for about 5-7 minutes until the oats are tender.

Stir in the honey or maple syrup and vanilla extract.

Slice the fresh strawberries while the oats cook.

Divide the oatmeal into bowls and top with sliced strawberries.

If desired, add a dollop of whipped cream on top.

Enjoy your strawberries and cream oatmeal!
