This is a fantastic breakfast you can make before you go to bed and it's ready when you wake up. It's made to eat cold but I'm not a big fan of cold oatmeal so I pop it in the microwave for 45 seconds to take the chill off. It's not too bad cold, though! This recipe was adapted from MyFitnessPal blog. I was able to save almost 100 calories and cut down on the fat. It's also loaded with potassium, calcium and iron. What helped save calories and fat? I used Premium Chocolate Peanut Butter (PB2). It's powdered peanut butter that you add a little water to and you've got yourself some peanut butter with a lot less fat. It's terrific in smoothies too!
What you need:
2 TB Premium Chocolate Peanut Butter (PB2)
1/2 cup oatmeal
1/3 cup Kefir Lifeway yogurt, plain (or any flavor you have)
1/3 cup Cashew Milk
1/3 cup apple slices, chopped (smaller the better)
1/4 cup walnuts
1/4 tsp. (or more!) apple pie spice and/or cinnamon
What to do:
Combine all ingredients in a small mason jar and stir well. Cover and refrigerate at least 8 hours or overnight. Grab a spoon when you're on the run!
