RSF  V

This breakfast bowl of goodness is an abundant source of protein, soluble fibre, omega 3 fatty acids with essential vitamins and minerals. 

BASIC INGREDIENTS


1/4 cup oats
1 tbsp chia seeds
1/2 cup nut or coconut milk, plus a little extra if needed in the morning.
1 tsp cinnamon

Combine the oats, chia seeds and cinnamon in a bowl then pour in the milk. Stir sufficiently to combine and place into the fridge overnight.

When you are ready for breakfast remove from the fridge and stir through any, or all of the additions.  Using ginger and cardamon are lovely warming spices for cooler months of the year.

TOPPING IDEAS


This breakfast never gets boring as you can use different toppings to create new flavours.

Plain Yoghurt - full fat dairy or coconut
Blueberries - fresh or frozen
You may like to try: grated green apple or pear, sliced banana, kiwi fruit or papaya.
Goji berries
Flaked coconut
Nuts and seeds of your choice (If your nuts aren’t activated you can throw these into a bowl of water to soak overnight with a splash of organic apple cider vinegar) drain and use them wet in the morning. 
 

MY TIP

Create one delightful mess of texture and flavour by stirring everything  together before you eat it. It may not look as fancy but oh my goodness - it tastes terrific!
