Whole Grains and Oats – a five-year Insulin Resistance Atherosclerosis Study showed that people whose diets contain the most whole grains “had the thinnest carotid artery walls and showed the slowest progression in artery wall thickness.” Try these recipes:
Ingredients You'll Need
Toasted walnuts or almonds
Fresh or frozen berries (blueberries, raspberries, blackberries, strawberries)
Dried goji berries
Cinnamon
Vanilla (little goes a long way)
Honey
Plums, peaches, pineapple, banana
Cacao powder
Directions

Hoping this inspires you to “flavor up” your boring breakfast! If you keep a few of these things on hand, you can always have delicious oatmeal ready in 5 or 10 minutes.
Cheers! Leave me a comment if you have more ideas for dressing up your oats.
