Ingredients
1/2 cup Quaker 1-Minute Oats
1/2 cup Kirkland Organic Vanilla Soy Milk (skim, almond, other milk is fine)
1/2 cup Chobani Greek Nonfat Plain Yogurt
1 serving fresh fruit (half an apple + 1/2 banana or whole fruit or different combination--have fun and experiment!)
1/4 cup dried fruit (craisins, raisins, chopped dried apricots, etc.)
5-6 chopped nuts (almonds, walnuts, pecans, pistachios, other)
1 tsp cinnamon
Simply mix all ingredients together and let stand if you like or just eat right away. Today I made a version with 1/2 of a granny smith apple and a few organic strawberries, diced small. I used about 4 dried apricots, chopped, and some pecans, chopped, and that was today's variation. Awesome stuff. Usually I use apple, banana, almonds, and craisins, and that's great, too. Have fun with it. This is a great meal because you get whole grains, fruit, probiotics and killer protein from the greek yogurt, and this is between 350-450 calories, depending. You can obviously omit some stuff, and if you need it sweeter, use a touch of agave nectar or some honey and that will do you right. Any way you dice it (lol) this is a great way to start your day, and you'll be able to power through without grease or even making a mess. There's no excuse not to have breakfast!
