Sometimes, especially when I’m running late (and my stomach’s growling), I can’t help but pick up a gooey muffin or buttery bagel from the nearest coffee chain on my way to work. So, in an attempt to clean up my breakfast routine, I bought a few extra large, combo packs of Quaker instant oatmeal a few months ago.
Packed with soluble fibre and whole grains, oats can help prevent heart disease and lower cholesterol. And you’ll be proud to know that my oatmeal kick is still going strong! But as anyone that eats plain oatmeal for breakfast, day in and day out, can attest: it can get pretty boring.
That’s why I’ve been brainstorming new ways to take it from ho-hum to heavenly. Here are 3 ways to spice up your oatmeal (and stay fueled until lunch):
1. A teaspoon of peanut butter is my latest discovery. It will seriously transform your oatmeal in just a spoonful.
2. With a drizzle of maple syrup or honey, you can give your morning a super sweet start.
3. The possibilities are endless when adding in dried or fresh fruit and chopped nuts. There are so many options to play with, from dried cranberries and walnuts to freshly chopped strawberries, that you can create a new mix each time.
