Dose of Prose

Hey Style Prose readers!

As some of you may or may not know, I’m a huge health nut. I love to work out, eat clean and am constantly preaching a healthy body and healthy mind. Breakfast is one of my favorite meals – I truly cannot function without having something to eat in the morning. Specifically, one of my favorite breakfast foods is oatmeal. So, I decided to put together a short video of my go-to, original oatmeal recipe. It’s simple, healthy, filling, delicious and nutritious! If you try it out, let me know what you think.

INGREDIENTS: 

• old fashioned oats
• milk (I used rice milk)
• sugar/sweetener (I used agave syrup)
• cinnamon
• vanilla extract
• optional toppings of your choice (berries/nuts/chia seeds)
• optional side items of your choice (toast, fruit or breakfast meat)

STEPS:

1. Bring milk to a boil
2. Add oats – cook on medium heat and stir occasionally
3. Add cinnamon
4. Add sugar/sweetener
5. Add vanilla extract
6. Stir and cook oats until desired thickness is reached
7. Finish with desired toppings
8. Serve with desired side items

Enjoy!
