Food Friday - Boost Your Oatmeal

by Thea Mangels
Looking for a healthy way to start the day?  Oatmeal has long been a stand-by in many homes.  Here are a few ways to boost the nutritional power of your oatmeal.
Start with steel cut oats - you can make them ahead, or use the instant type that take several minutes in the microwave. 

Nutty Oatmeal

Start with regular (unflavored) oatmeal, and add about two tablespoons of your favorite nut-butter (peanut-butter, almond-butter, pistachio-butter...).  This adds protein and a fun flavor to your oatmeal. 
For those who like it a little sweeter, drizzle a little honey over the top, or add 1 teaspoon, to 1 tablespoon Vanilla Profit protein powder and stir. 

Sweet and Fruity

Start with regular (unflavored) oatmeal, add 1 table-spoon Vanilla Profit protein powder and dried fruit of your choice.  Enjoy.

Peanut Butter and Jelly

Start with the Nutty Oatmeal, add 1 scoop of Berry Greens (or 1/2 packet Greens-on-the-Go Berry).  This gives you about 4 servings of fruits and vegetables along with your oatmeal. 
Peanut-butter and Chocolate
Start with the Nutty Oatmeal, add 1 tablespoon of Rich Chocolate Profit protein powder.  Enjoy!
