Good morning everyone! I hope you slept well! It’s weird that I slept less hours last night than I normally do, but slept better than I have in a while, plus I have tons of energy this morning! Maybe the trick is less hours, hehe.
Breakfast
I went to sleep last night DREAMING about what oatmeal I was going to have this morning. I’m usually obsessed with oatmeal and eat it everyday, but lately cereal has replaced this tradition. Not this morning, though! The oatmeal is back!
In my oatmeal: 1/4 cup water, 1/3 cup almond milk, 1/2 cup oats, 1/2 a banana, 1/2 tbsp. chia seeds, 1/2 tbsp. hemp seeds, and about 1/8 cup chopped walnuts.
To toast the walnuts, I put them in the microwave for about 1 min and 30 seconds. Thank you for the idea Kath Eats Real Food!
To make my oatmeal, I put the water, almond milk, and chunks of banana in the pot on medium heat until it was creamy.
Then I headed my chia seeds and hemp seeds for about 30 seconds in the microwave, just to take the chill of the fridge off
Next, I put everything into a bowl, and sprinkled the seeds and walnuts on top
The last step was to get a teaspoon of almond butter, and plop it right there on top!
Delicious! I love having the almond butter on the spoon too. I personally don’t mix it in because I like to get just a little with each bite.
There you have it! My healthy, delicious bowl of oatmeal. I was definitely inspired by Kath this morning (and last night when I was digging through her blog- check it out!)
