    I have embraced my love of oatmeal and there is no turning back!!

    I was chomping at the bit today to try out the Lunchtime Oats I was dreaming up all morning. I wasn’t sure how it would turn out, but I was willing to throw caution to the wind!

    I showed the French side for those of you who get a kick out of seeing French on our labels. ;) Biologique = Organic.

    After cooking, I poured it into the bowl and it looked like pure heaven. But of course, I knew it was not complete…

    I treated the oatmeal as a baked potato and I loaded on the toppings! Spaghetti sauce, hummus, parsley, black beans…oh my!

    I used this beautiful wooden elephant spoon that I picked up in Mexico.

    I rest my case.

    To say this was pure bliss in my tummy is an understatement. I can’t remember a lunch that I have adored this much in a long time!!

    Expect to see lots of Lunchtime oats in the near future! I am currently testing this batch to see how long it keeps me full for. Will report back with results!

    Do you make savoury oats? What do you put in them?

    I feel like the combos are ENDLESS. I already have my next Lunchtime oats planned out- Pizza Oats.

    On today’s agenda:

    • Speed Clean house
    • Bake 200 Glo Bars
    • Huge Bakery Ingredients delivery + call to pay
