Place milk and salt in a medium saucepan, cover, and begin heating over high heat.
Stir in orange juice concentrate and nut butter. Stir in quick-cooking oats.
Bring to boil. Reduce heat, cover, and cook at a very low boil for 12 minutes, stirring occasionally to prevent oats from sticking to the bottom of the pan. (If you forget to stir and oats do stick, simply turn off the burner for about 5 minutes. Cereal should scrape off the bottom of pan easily now. Resume cooking.)
After 12 minutes, stir in maple syrup (if desired), 1 cup strawberries, and vanilla. Mix well and continue to cook for a minute or two, or until thoroughly heated. Remove from heat.
Spoon into 2 bowls. Top with chopped strawberries, chopped almonds, and other fruit as desired. Serve immediately.
