Breakfast Routine
I have a few different breakfast routines. All of them take under 10 minutes to cook and one is even made overnight. The image above is of my cooked oats routine. This does require cooking, however it can be made in under 10 minutes. Listed below are the ingredients I use and how I spice my oats up a bit. Healthy does not have to be boring. Little spices and toppings can make a simple meal exciting, yummy, and extremely satisfying!
