I love shopping at this little grocery store in my town that sells food for super cheap prices. It’s a store where some of the products might be outdated or the packaging is damaged. Nothing major and all of the food is still very good.
Just because something is outdated doesn’t mean that it’s bad or rotten. In fact, expiration dates really don’t mean much at all. Anyhoo, I purchased this gigantic 5-pound bag of oatmeal because it was only $3.00.
I wasn’t sure what I was going to do with all of that oatmeal but, hey, it was $3.00! I also found a few jars of Smuckers Caramel Sauce for $.50 a piece! Yep. I totally hit the jackpot that day.
So, as you have probably already imagined, I was looking for things to make with oatmeal and caramel sauce, and boy did I ever find something amazing. Caramel oatmeal bars, aka. caramelitas!
