The Best Oatmeal Ever!

This is one of my favourite foods! Simple and easy to prepare, it’s super-satisfying, sticks to your ribs and leaves you full for hours on end.

It’s a very healthy meal packed full of fibre and nutrition, and it’s not just for breakfast. Eat it for lunch or dinner, or as a snack (careful… it’s really filling).

1) Put 1 cup Steel Cut Oats (organic if you can get ‘em) in a bowl.

2) Add 2 cups water (RO filtered preferably).

3) Add 1 or 2 tablespoons of Raw, Unfiltered, and Non-Pasteurized, Apple Cider Vinegar (I use Omega Nutrition Apple Cider Vinegar).

4) Stir a couple of times to mix thoroughly.

5) Cover the bowl and let sit over night.

6) In the morning, empty bowl into a saucepan, add another half cup of water, and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer for 2 minutes, stirring regularly to avoid burning or sticking to the pan.

7) Add 1 to 2 tablespoons coconut oil (organic, non-hydrogenated… I use Omega Nutrition 100% Organic Coconut Oil).

8) **Optional** Add pure maple syrup or honey (sweeten to taste).

9) Enjoy!

Feel free to add raisins, a chopped up banana, a chopped up apple, strawberries, blueberries, raspberries (berries of any kind), almonds or other nuts. You can jazz it up in almost limitless healthy ways!
