Oat, Chia and Berry Breakfast Bowl
Yields 5
An easily prepared breakfast bowl that can be made for the week ahead. Rich in fiber and antioxidants.
Prep Time: 10 min Total Time: 10 min
Ingredients
- 4 cups of frozen berries ( I use a mix of strawberries, raspberries and blueberries, but feel free to use your favorite fruit)
- 1 1/2 cups rolled oats( gluten free if trying to avoid gluten)
- 1/2 cup chia seeds
Instructions
- Put your berries in a glass bowl to defrost. I use them microwave, but you could also but them in your fridge overnight Put the oats and chia in your blender or food processor and process until the consistency of oat bran. You don't won't to process your oats too much, they'll just make your breakfast bowl rather gummy. I think it's best to underprocess them as opposed to overprocess them.
- Transfer your oats/chia mixture to a small bowl.
- Put the berries in your blender/food processor and process until a smooth puree.
- Mix berries and oat/chia mixture in a bowl with a lid. I have many times eaten a bowl right then, but it does thicken up in the fridge
- Top with fruit and/or nuts of your choosing for a healthy, filling and fiber-ful breakfast.
ENJOY!
