Porridge - interesting? Many people scrunch their noses in disgust when they hear the word oatmeal! Back to the lumpy, tasteless oatmeal for breakfast can bring about memories from childhood.
I keep an open mind and an urge to read on. Porridge for a really healthy way to start your day. It is packed full of goodness and can be really delicious. It has an electric fuel and without any cravings kick in. By the time lunch you will continue
Can also very cost effective. One bag goes a long way. What you see is what you get. Have a look at the back of cereal boxes in the supermarket. They promise it sugar-free, low sugar, very healthy snacks, etc. In reality most of them are loaded with salt and sugar. They certainly are not a good start the day.
Here are some tips on preparation and serving tips: Prepare the night before. Half of grits mug for a mug of water. This allows the flakes to soften some overnight. It will cook faster in the morning. Saving time is always a work day! If you prefer a creamy texture, then use water instead of milk.
Place in the morning grits and simmer on low heat and allow the water. Give it an occasional stir. It works the other morning, it gives off when running on a low heat.
Some serving suggestions: for a change instead of milk to rice milk. Rice milk is available in original flavor. You can also find vanilla rice milk. Try them both and then choose your favorite.
If you want a creamier porridge - to use the pot of your favorite yogurt. There are many flavors to choose from. Think healthy (stay away from sugar!). Add some cinnamon for a nice little spicy flavor. Think color. Sliced banana, add dried apricots or blueberries. Yum - they all advertise your own specific flavor to the dish. How strawberries, raspberries or even in some sliced apples? The world is your oyster.
Consider including some nuts and seeds. Pine seeds, chopped almonds or a mixture of seeds and nuts, a look at the local supermarket. Add 2 teaspoons to your dish. If you need some sweetness to one teaspoon of honey will do the trick.
There is just so much choice. It's hard to believe that this dish so delicious, can be colorful and exciting. If lumpy, gray, tasteless oatmeal deport those memories. Be daring and to bring the twenty-first century. Give it a new lease of life. Free oatmeal.
