I’m beyond amazed by both of these breakfast bowls.
Honestly, I didn’t anticipate loving them this much, but they pleasantly surprised me and now I want to eat them every single day. I’m not sure whether it’s the comforting flavor combo of the toppings or the incredible creaminess of the oats. It also doesn’t hurt that one serving of oats packs 6 grams of protein, 4 grams of fiber, only 150 calories and adding fiber and antioxidant-rich fruit, heart healthy fats, and super food hemp seeds into the mix guarantees that you’ll be full and energized until lunch rolls around.
Truly little bowls of heaven.
Please don’t hesitate to use these oatmeal recipes as a base and get crazy with different flavor combinations. I’m thinking an apple-cinnamon version would be fab, as would pumpkin-pecan, and blueberry-pie.
Variety is the spice of life.
