Not Boring...Take 2

(pumpkin oatmeal with brown sugar and almond milk)

(oatmeal ice cream...so creamy!)
 
Back on the boring conversation.  Another food that I eat a lot of is oatmeal.

(oatgurt banana split with no sugar added strawberry preserves and cashew butter-thanks HEAB!)

I put oatmeal in so many things.  If there was one food that I could not live without...it would be my oats.  I was asked by a friend of mine one time about how many servings of oats I have in a day.  I would say probably 3 on a normal day...don't judge me! 

(black eyed pea burgers...I love bean burgers)

I have oatmeal for breakfast everyday.  It makes me feel good and it starts my day off feeling very nourished and satisfied!

(egg white oats with cinnamon and almond milk)

The combinations for your morning oats are endless.

(sweet potato oats with brown sugar and almond milk)

(blueberry oats with flax meal)

(oatmeal pancakes with apple puree)

(homemade low fat, low sugar ginger granola)

I love seeing what other people do with theirs.  I could never get bored with this stuff!  I eat it for breakfast, I bake with it (pizza dough) and I have it for dessert!
