It's New if You Make it New

I'm not going to lie.... I woke up craving Steel Cut Oats.  And while there's nothing wrong with that, I realize that I'm going to eventually go crazy if I continue only eating the same things over and over.

So the best thing to do is mix it up!  Normally when I make my oats, I add crunchy peanut butter and honey (and sometimes a cut up banana).  So good.

But today, instead of the usual peanut butter and honey, I used....
  • All natural Almond Butter (that I got from our local health food store)
  • A sprinkle of cinnamon and sugar
  • Honey
It tasted completely different.... and it was so, so good!  I don't care if the oats take 20 minutes to make, they're freakin delicious and nutritious!  Lots of fiber, lots of yummy, all around a great way to start the day.

Tomorrow I'll be having my weekly meeting with Chef Michael so that I can continue learning and broaden my horizons.  We're going to also make some foods in bulk so that I can easily pull out one serving (already made) of rice or whatever out of the fridge or freezer and eat!

As we're moving in 6 days, it'll be great to have meals already prepped and ready this week.

I'll be trying organic eggs for the first time, and we're going to learn how to make deviled eggs with veganaise.

As much as I love Steel Cut Oats and Couscous, I am looking forward to learning new things tomorrow.
