I get asked this question all the time! I like to make 1 dish with my protein and carb all in one for breakfast. I found it hard to eat oatmeal and egg whites or hard boiled eggs every morning. I found that I would typically skip the egg part, but then I wasn’t staying full very long because the protein is what sustains your fuel burning consistently. In the Eat Clean Diet one of the principles is to pair a complex carb and lean protein at each meal. So I found a way to include it all in one dish and taste yummy too! Here is my step by step directions!!
- 1/2 cup rolled oats
- Small amount of water
- 1/2 c almond milk (unsweetened)
- 3/4 scoop vanilla protein powder
- 1 tbsp ground flaxseed
- 1 tbsp wheat germ
- 1 cupped handful of fresh blueberries
- Scoop 1/2 cup rolled oats into a microwave safe dish
- Pour a small amount of water on top and microwave until soft (about 1 minute 18 sec in my microwave).
- In the meantime mix 1/2 cup almond milk and protein powder in a small dish
- Pour over cooked oatmeal, then add 1 tbsp flaxseed and wheat germ and berries. Stir and enjoy!!!!
