Healthy Highlights:
Oats are a fantastic source of complex carbohydrates, ensuring a slow and steady sugar release into the body. The fiber in oats not only aids in stabilizing blood sugar levels but also supports weight management by keeping you full longer. Additionally, oats contain beta-glucans, known to enhance immune system function, showcasing how proper nutrition can be a cornerstone of good health.
Ingredients (Makes 2 Servings):
1 cup of rolled oats
1.5 cups of your preferred milk (Almond or coconut milk are great for added healthy fats and protein!)
1 apple, grated
A handful of raisins
2 tablespoons of chia seeds
A handful of roughly chopped nuts (macadamias, almonds, or walnuts are excellent choices)
1 teaspoon of cinnamon powder
Optional Twist:
Swap out raisins for goji berries for a lower sugar option and an extra boost of antioxidants!
Instructions:
Combine all the ingredients in a container or a large glass jar.
Seal with a lid and leave in the refrigerator overnight to soak.
In the morning, stir well and serve as it is, or elevate it with a spoonful of coconut yogurt and some fresh berries for added flavor and freshness.
