Pink Oats
Happy Tuesday!
Popping in to tell you about a new concoction I threw together yesterday morning that I am hooked on…
Raspberry Steel Cut Oats
Raspberries were super cheap at Ralphs this week so I grabbed a few containers.
I like to make 2 or 3 servings of oats and then have them ready for a couple mornings during the week since they do take 7-10 minutes on the stove ~ but SO worth it! We get them at Sprouts in the bulk bins for next-to-nothing or Trader Joe’s has their own brand now.
For these, I added one container of raspberries to 2 servings about 5-7 minutes after they started cooking. The berries break down and color the oats pink. When done cooking, place a serving in a bowl along with just a little almond milk {or other choice}, some sliced almonds, a dusting of coconut {toasted would be out of this world!} and a sprinkle of white chocolate chips.
Not an everyday type breakfast, but certainly a nice summer treat here and there!
Enjoy!

I’m glad I have short term memory because I forget about steel cut oats. Otherwise, I would have them every meal!!!
This is a great idea to put the berries in during the last few minutes of cooking!
Yes…99 cents a pound…you can feed a bazillion people and 1/4 cup makes 1 cup and is only 140 calories! Chewy and yummy to the last crunchy bite!
