In a medium saucepan, combine the rolled oats, low-fat milk, water, and salt. Stir the mixture to blend the ingredients uniformly.
Place the saucepan over medium heat and bring the mixture to a gentle boil, stirring occasionally to avoid the oatmeal sticking to the bottom of the pan.
Once boiling, reduce the heat to low and let the oats simmer for about 5 to 7 minutes, stirring regularly, until the mixture thickens and the oats are tender and creamy.
Remove the saucepan from the heat and stir in the vanilla extract and honey until fully incorporated.
Divide the oatmeal into two bowls. Top each serving with slices of banana, strawberries, and a generous sprinkle of blueberries.
Serve the low-fat creamy oatmeal immediately, enjoying it while warm and fresh.
