For the Oatmeal
For the Cinnamony-Sweet Topping
Instructions
-
Place the oats, water, nut milk, raisins and psyllium husks (if using) in a small saucepan and bring to a quick boil, stir well then turn to medium and let boil more gently for about 2 -3 minutes.
-
Take the pan off of the heat, transfer the oatmeal to a bowl and go do something for your morning routine. Come back about 5 minutes later and your oatmeal will be set.
-
Generously sprinkle cinnamon until top of oatmeal is largely covered. Now sprinkle on the Gentle Sweet and the Mineral Salt.
-
- Place the coconut oil into the 2-4 Tablespoons of very hot water, mix and pour over your bowl of oatmeal. Don’t stir but rather allow the luscious oil/ water mix to naturally flow into every spoonful.
Note
Notes From Pearl
Note 1 - You need 25 - 30 grams of protein in your breakfast to fuel your lean body mass and nurture your metabolism. If you don’t want to add a full cup of cottage cheese, Greek yogurt or sautéed egg whites as a side to your breakfast to get more protein, there are some easier ways to do it without adding all that food volume. You could add a full scoop of Optimized Collagen to your morning coffee.
Or, you could add a full serving (4 Tbs.) of Vanilla Optimized Whey to your coffee or blend it with a glass of unsweetened nut milk. Check out how to make Vanilla Optimized Coffee here. Another alternative is to mix a full serving (1 Tbs.) of ESSENTIAL (our essential amino acid formula which supplies you with excellent protein) with some water and have it with your meal.
Note 2 - If you do not have our Trim Healthy Gentle Sweet just yet, you can use another plan approved sweetener to taste. Gentle Sweet does work best for this Cinnamony-Sweet topping but other on plan sweeteners are stevia, monk fruit, allulose, erythritol and xylitol.
