Hey there bumblebees,
if you follow me on instagram you are awesome AND you now, that I´m eating a lot of oats currently. I really like a lot about them and I never have a bloated stomach afterwards. But oats have mor beneficial aspects for you. So here are four reasons why oats are good for you AND a recipe:
1. Keeps you full for hours and hours
I normally have my breakfast around 9:00 in the morning. So it may take four hours til I get lunch. Normally your stomach is empty after two hours. Which is fine, if you are one of those skinny girls, who live from air and love. I am not! I need t eat and I hate to starve!
2. It cleans out you digestive system
I talked about oats with Elena from whohatesbambi the other day. She told me about oats cleaning out the gaps between your villi (they are in your gut!). And honestly? I have no clue, but I feel so vitalized since I eat those oats.
3. You just need a bit
100 grams of raw oat contain about 360 kilocalories, but really? I am so full after only 50 grams. So actually in the end with berries, milk, honey and applesaucemy breakfast only adds up to about 370 cals. This is about 24% of the whole day for a whole meal! TAKE MY MONEY!
4. It contains loads of fibers
We all know: fibers are good for you! They are like lubricant for your digestive system. So “eat the food!” just to quote Napoleon Dynamite
So, here is my Recipe for good breakfast oats:
- 50 grams of porridge oats
- 100 ml of milk
- 1 big spoon of honey (rice syrup to make it fructosefree)
- a bit of cinnamon
Instructions
- Put the indegedients in a small pot
- Cook it on the stove with medium heat until it reaches slimy consistency
- I sometimes add applesauce, blueberries or some blackberries for the taste and sometimes I cook the berries with the oats, so the oats turn pink! 🙂
- GLUTENFREE -> I you suffer from celiac desease try out amaranth or quinoa instead of oats!
- Enjoy! 😉
