I try to eat oatmeal for breakfast everyday. I usually like to eat it raw, just mixed in with yogurt, but I will cook it if I am making it for the family. Here are some of the ways we enjoy eating it...

| Plain Yogurt with Blueberries, Raw Oatmeal & Walnuts ~ My favorite way to eat oatmeal is to add it straight from the canister & just sprinkle it over my yogurt. I like to add different fruits to my yogurt (blueberries fresh/frozen, shredded/diced apple, mashed/sliced banana or fresh strawberries) & I always include some ground flax/flax oil, along with a handful of walnuts & a dash of cinnamon. Sometimes I'll add a touch of honey, but often I'll skip the sweetener all together. If I have fresh lemons/limes around, I'll give it a little squeeze of juice, it really brightens it up. |

| Bircher Muesli ~ Such an easy & healthy way
to have breakfast. You just add milk or juice to the uncooked oatmeal
& let it soak overnight. In the morning - add some grated apple,
yogurt, honey, fruit & nuts. Learn about Dr. Bircher, ~ interesting how
even back in the early 1900's people were already on the raw/health
food band wagon. |

| Oat Bran ~ I REALLY like Quaker Oat Oat Bran, it's the best I've found. Oat bran is such a change from regular oatmeal, completely different texture. I will sometimes sprinkle it raw over my yogurt, but mostly I cook it as the box directs. This picture is a spin on the basic recipe that I like to make from the blog ~ Peas &
Thank You. |
