Love Of Oats

A blog dedicated to balancing a healthy and fun life… with oats!

Blueberry Abundance

Before I move on to today’s breakfast, I should add that last night I ate the rest of my Strawberry Rice Dream, probably 1.5 servings… AND I ate it out of the container… well, because there was only a little left and I thought it would be more environmentally friendly than wasting a bowl hehe…

This morning was a bowl of fantastic blueberry oats topped with flax and chopped walnuts, cooked on 50% power for 3 minutes… this breakfast never seems to fail me in terms of taste expectations…

You will be seeing lots of blueberries the next few days simply b/c it’s the only fruit (besides apples) that is left in my house… I am planning a much-needed, critical fruit/veggie shopping trip for Friday after work!

Mid-morning, I was in a pinch for a snack so I had a packet of Quaker Apple & Cinnamon instant oats to tide me over until lunch… Honestly, this is one of my favorite go-to, emergency snacks b/c it’s easily portable & filling!

What are some of your favorite portable on-the-go snacks?

Back in a bit w/ the lunchy-eats… I have a new product to try so I can’t wait!

    I’ve heard that eating out of the container makes the calories not count! :)

    In terms of oatmeal, I started trying to make sure I was buying versions with more fiber and protein. I like Kashi and some of the store version low sugar brands.

    Also a fan of the kashi bar, taking apples with me in the car and beef jerky actually.

    I have a serious blueberries-going-bad issue I need to take care of as well… Except photos on my blog too :)

    My favorite on the go snack are Kath’s Oatmeal Bars… but when I don’t feel like baking, a Kashi TLC bar has never let me down.

    My two on the go snacks are Clif Bars and homemade trail mix (nuts, maybe some cereal, dried fruit, edamame and chocolate chips.)

    I almost always have an emergency Clif bar with me and if I know I have a long day ahead of me, I will pack the trail mix–’just in case’

    I love eating the last bit of anything out of the container. It feels like such a guilty pleasure:)

    I love apples and chopped veggies and some almonds in a ziplock as my portable snacks. So good.
