Oatmeal

Oatmeal is so boring and I think its super gross plain. So I came up with a list of different ways to spice up your plain oatmeal, but still keep it healthy.

Add a Fruit or Vegetable:
Cranberries
Raisins
Strawberries
Flax Seed
Craisins
Banana
Pumpkin

Cherries
Applesauce
Blueberries
Rasberries
Peaches
Chopped Apples
Dates
Dried Fruit
Walnuts Or Almonds


Add a Flavor or Spice: 
Peanut butter
Chopped Nuts
Cinnamon
Nutmeg
Ginger
Honey
Maple Syrup
Cocoa Powder
Vanilla
Fruit Jam
Protein Powder
Almond or Coconut Butter

Add a Liquid thats not just water or skim milk: 

Almond Milk
Coconut Milk
Yogurt

Mix and match all of these! A couple ideas:

  • Peanut butter and Cocoa, 
  • Pumpkin, Nutmeg and Cinnamon  topped with Almond milk. 
  • Strawberries, Vanilla, and Yogurt. 
  • Flax Seed, Raisins, and Almond Milk, Sprinkled with Cinnamon. 
Because of all these new ways to eat oatmeal, it is my new favorite breakfast. Tell me how you like your oatmeal, I'd love to hear another new creation! Enjoy!
