Hey Chicks,<\/p>\n

Hi my name is Laura and I am oatmeal -aholic.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Yes, I love oatmeal…I love the thick, comforting consistency, I love the nutritional value<\/a>, I love how its portable, can\u00a0use\u00a0it cooked or not and how AMAZING it\u00a0makes your skin feel (that’s right chicks, other than coconut oil it is my next fave!<\/a>)<\/p>\n\n

Here are my TOP 5 Fave\u00a0ways to use your oat outrageously!<\/p>\n

1.\u00a0 FLAVOUR WITH TEA<\/h3>\n

I love flavoured oatmeals but they are packed with chemicals & sugar.\u00a0 To make your own delish concoctions, brew 1 cup of tea<\/strong> or save left over from when you drink it!.\u00a0 Just measure out the ratios ( a typical serving is 1\/3 cup large rolled oats to 2\/3 cup of water or tea)<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

My faves teas to use<\/strong>:\u00a0 chai spice, blueberry, forever nuts,\u00a0 orange chocolate and maple\u00a0.\u00a0 If you like it sweeter, add some honey or stevia.<\/p>\n

2.\u00a0 OVERNIGHT OATS<\/h3>\n

If you have not tried overnight oats, you are seriously missing out.\u00a0 These are one of my FAVE breakies of all time, you can meal prep all servings for the week<\/strong>, super easy, are a perfect balance of protein\/fibre\/fat AND include the sassy superfood – chia!\u00a0 Check out this awesome recipe I use<\/a><\/p>\n

3. \u00a0AS A FLOUR SUBSTITUTE<\/h3>\n

Making protein pancakes or muffins? \u00a0Use oat flour!<\/strong> Simply buy your large oats (not the quick cook kind) and grind in a coffee grinder until a flour consistency as sub.<\/p>\n

4. \u00a0BAKED OATS IN THE SLOW COOKER<\/h3>\n

Oh my tummy is growling writing this! \u00a0Baked oats in the slow cooker<\/a> are the ultimate comfort food. \u00a0Plus they are beyond easy. \u00a0Just throw all the ingredients in the slow cooker the night before <\/strong>and wake up to a house that smells like healthy goodness. \u00a0Perfect for busy weekends and brunches too \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n

5. \u00a0IN YOUR BATH<\/h3>\n

Ditch those expensive bath soaks! \u00a0For the softest skin ever, fill a cheesecloth or nylon with 1 cups of ground oats. <\/strong> For a scented bath bomb, put a couple drops of lavender or peppermint essential oils. \u00a0Drop it in your bath for silky smooth skin.<\/p>\n

Remember chicks, your skin is your largest organ and should only put things on it that you would put in your mouth \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n

These are only my top 5 but I have so many more! \u00a0What is your fave way to use oats?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Have a fab day,<\/p>\n
