Super Filling Breakfast

Fortunately, Steel Cut Oats are allowed on this cleanse. This is another quick and easy meal to take with you to work or eat quickly in the morning on your way out the door. Every Sunday, I make a big batch of steel cut oats - the longer cooking ones. It is 1 cup oats to 4 cups water and it takes about 30 minutes to cook. I do 2 batches and it lasts Stephen and I the whole week. The best thing about this breakfast is that you can add almost anything you want to it. Sticking with our cleanse though, we wanted to add ingredients that helped us get more protein, omega-3's, fiber and antioxidants! Below is what I had for breakfast today!

1/2 cup cooked steel cut oats
1/4 cup blueberries
2 teaspoons agave nectar
1 tablespoon roasted flax seeds
about 10 almonds chopped up
1 tablespoon peanut butter
2 tablespoons - 1/4 cup unsweetened rice milk


Directions:
  • Cook your steel cut oats (you can also do the quick cook oats which take about 8 minutes). 
  • Mix all ingredients (minus the blueberries and almonds) and heat in the microwave about 2 minutes
  • Stir and then add blueberries and almonds
  • Enjoy!
