I'm a firm believer that breakfast is the most important meal of the day, one that should never be skipped. After a long and intense addiction to cereal, I was finally able to kick my sugary habit for a much healthier, and cheaper alternative. This is now my go to breakfast - simple, quick, healthy and filling and easy to prepare. For those of you with little time to spare each morning, it can be made the night before. Just add milk!
Ingredients*
- 1 1/2 cups oats
- 1/3 cup raisins
- 1/3 cup crushed salted almonds
- 1/3 fresh blueberries
- 1 1/2 cups skim milk
Add all the ingredients to a small bowl and simply add milk.
* Feel free to add or replace anything that you think will make this recipe better. Remember, food is subjective - It's only good if YOU think it's good! Some ideas for substitutions are: Fresh fruit - bananas, berries, peaches, mango; Nuts - I like salted almonds because the salt provides a contrast to the sweet raisins. Others include walnuts, pecans, macadamias, pistachios; Dried fruits - apricots, banana chips, craisins; Honey, coconut flakes, brown sugar.
