Guest Post: Versatile Oats

Thanks so much to Jenny for doing this blog post for me!  She's wonderful and has a great blog so be sure to check her out!  I don't know what I'd do without my wonderful blogging friends.  Xoxo! :) 


--------------------------------------------

Hey everyone I'm Jenny and I blog over at Fit Girl Foodie. Just wanted to start off saying a great big thanks to Katie for letting me do a guest post on her blog while she's away Smile. If anyone has some serious baking skills it's her.

I'm not going to lie, when Katie asked me to do a guest post I had no idea what I was going to write. I'm not a baker nor have I made anything blog worthy. But if there's one thing I'm good at is making some serious morning oats.

I was a cereal junkie all my life and no not eating Kashi and Puffins. I ate Lucky Charms, Cookie Crisp, Captain Crunch and the likes. My first oatmeal experience was good but not mind boggling.

My rookie days

I don't know about you but not exactly pretty now is it?

Fast forward a few months and we have this
Pumpkin Pie Oats
Now we're on to something Winking smile
Bananas more your taste?
Topped with more banana, peanuts, granola, and cinnamon raisin pb

What about banana and chocolate?



Topped with chia seeds, peanuts, graham crackers, chocolate morsels and a spoonful of cinnamon raisin pb



Or with Jam?


The options are virtually limitless
Who says oatmeal has to be boring? Winking smile

  3.  I LOVE adding pumpkin to my oatmeal! One of my favorite things is this mix of apple sauce, spices, apple chunks, pecans and the like... Apple pie oats! http://thesugarapothecary.blogspot.com/2011/01/steel-cut-oats-and-lilliputian-spice.html

  4. One of the healthiest foods there is. Thank you for showing oats don't have to be the bland gruel we all grew up with.
