a new posting series | favorite meals no.1
my favorite meal of the day is breakfast. what better way to start off the day with something delicious? (the biggest meal of your day should be breakfast!) you burn off the calories you've eaten the rest of the day (!!!) could that be more motivating?
the best way of making oatmeal (in my opinion) is simple: light brown sugar (1tbs= 15cals), whole milk, a pinch of cinnamon and the occasional sliced banana if i'm feelin it. oatmeal keeps me full for hours and i'm a happy camper! ever since i was a wee one, my mom would ask me every morning "Andrea, what do you want for breakfast?" my reply, "Chocolate milk and oatmeal!" (i'm a chocolate milk lover, but lately have kept that obsession tightly reigned)

DeleteI've never been able to get into oatmeal...but then again, these pictures make it look so fun + delicious I may have to try again! How do you cook your oatmeal so it doesn't get slimy? xo! eliza
ReplyDeletehi eliza! so i put in a bowl about a cup or less of old fashioned oats. then add water so it just barely covers all of the oats. heat in microwave for 1 minute. then i stir and let it cool for a bit and add about 1/4 cup of whole milk, 1 tbs of brown sugar and some cinnamon. give that a try and see if it works! :)
DeleteYum! These photos are amazing! Makes oatmeal look so chic! lol
