Stop worrying about dieting. Just eat whole foods that come out of the earth and not the foods that fertilize it. Ken Carlile, Blogger at www.ieatplants.com

REFRIGERATOR OATMEAL

Print Friendly and PDF


Tired of waking up in the morning and having to make breakfast?  Oatmeal is always a great way to start the day, whole grain oats that is...not the instant stuff that has all of the fiber taken out of it.  But it takes so long to make.  Welcome Refrigerator Oatmeal. Apparently this has been around for awhile, but it's new to me and I'm sure some of you.  You can make a large batch and keep it in the fridge.  Just heat it in the microwave in the morning and you're good to go.  

1 1/2 cup whole grain rolled oats
3 cups unsweetened almond milk (or your favorite non-dairy milk)
1 teaspoon cinammon
1 tablespoon chia seeds (optional)
1 tablespoon ground flax seeds
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 cup raisins (optional) soaked in hot water for 5 minutes
1/2 cup dried cranberries (optional) soaked in hot water for 5 minutes

Combine the dry ingredients (oats, cinammon, chia seeds, flax seeds)

Combine the wet ingredients (almond milk, vanilla)

Mix the wet and dry ingredients in a container that you can cover and store in the refrigerator.  Add the raisins and/or cranberries. After about a half hour stir the ingredients again then leave overnight in the fridge (stir occasionally if you think about it).  In the morning stir, take out the amount you want for breakfast and microwave.  You're done.  You can add agave syrup, maple syrup or your favorite sweetener and you've got a great start to your day.
