I got up this morning and felt a little tired and hungry from working out last night. I relaxed a bit on the couch and ate a bit of breakfast then did a 20 Minute Yoga Quickie with a nice woman on the beach on YouTube. It felt pretty great to stretch like that in the morning. Got my heart pumping and was even a little sweaty!
At about 10am, after my green tea, I had my second breakfast and since then I've only eaten a pear and a bit of that potato salad. What is this magic breakfast that kept me so full?
Overnight Banana Oatmeal!
I don't know why I didn't do this sooner. It's the quickest and easiest breakfast ever! Not to mention delicious. And as usual this dish can be modified to include your favourite ingredients.
Unfortunately, I didn't get a picture of it. But, I used this Banana-Blueberry recipe as a guide and she's got a nice picture that doesn't just look like brown mush!
Get a load of how easy this is.
Ingredients
1/3 cup of steel-cut oats
1/3 overflowing cup of milk
1/3 cup of plain Greek yogurt
1 mashed banana
1/4t of cinnamon (or to taste)
Directions
Mash the banana, then mix everything together in a sealable bowl or container. Pop it in the fridge overnight. In the morning trow it in the microwave for 1 minute and and enjoy! You can top it with more fresh fruit, granola, almonds or cereal if you're feeling really hungry :)
This is a new favourite for sure, and I've been telling everyone about it today. I just can't believe how easy it is. I loved that I could take it to work and top it with almonds and not even think about it!
You can experiment with all flavours here too. Add some honey, peanut butter, raisins or flax seed. Use chia seeds and non-dairy milk to make it vegan. Some apple slices or strawberries would also be great! This is definitely a recipe you can play with.
