Everyone could use a wholesome breakfast that you can simply grab in a hurry, right? I know I can! This one takes all of 10 minutes to throw together at night and the next morning you have a wholesome, hot, and delicious breakfast that will stick to your ribs till lunchtime! Whoever invented the crock pot was a genius!
INGREDIENTS
2 cups rolled oats
6 cups liquid (can use all or part apple juice, milk or other liquid)
Spices/flavorings to taste
1-2 cups fruit, either dried or fresh, cut
½ cup honey
Throw all the ingredients into your crock pot, if using fresh fruit, add it just before serving in the morning.... Cook on low overnight.
To make this yummy meal pack more of a nutritional punch, you could add a tablespoon or two of flax meal, nutritional yeast, wheat germ.... you get the idea....
By the way, for those of you with children who HATE eating their veggies, this recipe is a great opportunity to add some veggie goodness! Because carrots have a natural sweetness, only use half of the honey called for in the recipe, puree a cup of peeled carrots and add it to the crock pot about 10 minutes before serving... voila, veggies al la secret!
