Oatmeal Soap Balls recipe

1 cup instant Quaker oatmeal
1 bar mild soap, such as Ivory
1/4 cup water
Food coloring (optional)

Grate oatmeal or use a mini-processor oatmeal. Put into a bowl. Do the same with the soap.

Add the water and blend well. If adding food coloring, add it to the water for even consistency. Shape into balls and put on wax paper to dry.

Balls can be put into containers or wrapped with plastic wrap and tied with raffia. A gift tag can be attached to the raffia.
