Apple Spiced Oatmeal (237kcal)
- 1/4 c. instant oats (75 kcal)
- 1/4 c. multi-grain hot cereal (65 kcal)
- 3 grams chia seeds (15 kcal)
- 3 grams ground flax seeds (16 kcal)
- 1 small apple, finely diced (66 kcal)
- 2 tea bags
- 3 cups of water
- sweetener if desired
Steep your teabags in hot water for at least 5 minutes. Add all ingedients and microwave 2-4 minutes. Stir until oatmeal thickens.
I make this at my office with only the microwave and water cooler/heater. I pre-measure my chia and flax at home. The tea I use is Good Earth Original which is outrageous. I love it so much - it is super strong, sweet and spicy. Notice that I use an inordinate amount of water - 3 times the amount called for for the serving of oats. I microwave for 4 minutes on top of using hot tea to begin with, and then I stir stir STIR as it cools, I end up with a super fluffy almost parfait-like bowl of porridge. It's amazing
You can add all sorts of things to this to add more nutrients and flavor. Try:
1/4 c. pumpkin honey seeds dried fruits chopped nuts... just be careful of calories!
