Berry Tasty Oatmeal

This delicious Oatmeal recipe is the perfect morning pick me up!

Oats are a high fiber food that can regulate blood sugars, support digestive and cardiovascular health. Oatmeal is one of my favorite breakfast foods. You can change the taste and texture by adding a variety of toppings. Use any type of fruit or nut that you like. For more nutritional density, add ingredients like: maca, cacao, chia or flax seeds, goji berries or cacao nibs. 1 Tbsp of nut or seed butter also adds a nice flavour kick, as well as more added protein and healthy fats. Get creative!
