Eat Oats Every Day

Breakfast is the most important meal of the day! I am obsessed with oats and love making them look pretty every day. We eat with our eyes! Take an extra few minutes to give your meals a pretty presentation. 

Use my recipe as a guideline and recreate your own!!

3 tablespoons liquid egg whites

1 banana, sliced

3 strawberries, sliced 

5 raspberries, halved 

1 tablespoon nut butter of choice 

1 teaspoon hemp seeds (hemp hearts)

THE METHOD:

1. Add the water, chia seeds, and porridge oats to a small pot on medium high heat. Bring to a boil and reduce to a simmer, whisking constantly. Add the liquid egg whites and cook to desired consistency. Pour into a serving bowl and set aside.

2. Slice the fruit and arange on top of your oats along with the nut butter. Make it pretty! Sprinkle with hemp seeds.

3. DEVOUR! 

You can top your oats with any fruits you like! Enjoy!

1/4 cup plain nonfat Greek yogurt

1 banana, sliced

4 strawberries, sliced

6-8 raspberries

1 TBS goji berries

You can top with any fruits you like! I don't like very sweet meals but you can sprinkle in a bit of natural sugar, like coconut sugar, if you prefer!! Enjoy!
