Breakfast Golden Oatmeal
Morning oats are an incredibly nourishing way to start the day, especially when paired with antioxidant-rich-turmeric and black pepper. This savory version uses jaggery, an unrefined sugar, as the sweetener, and boasts a beautiful yellow-orange color. Great nutritious start will allow you to stay active during day, enjoy exercise classes & any other sport activities you may undertake.
Ingredients:
1 cup plain unsweetened oat milk
Pinch of kosher salt
1 cup rolled oats
1 teaspoon jaggery
2 teaspoons ground turmeric
Pinch of freshly ground black pepper
2 whole cardamom pods
2 tablespoons non-hydrogenated plant-based spread
½ cup blueberries, for garnish
½ cup raspberries, for garnish
Ingredient Highlight:
Cardamom is an excellent source of potassium as well as other vitamins and trace minerals. It has some antioxidant properties and may aid in digestion.
Method:
In a medium pot over high heat, bring 1 cup of water and the oat milk and salt to a boil.
Once boiling, add the oats, stir, and reduce the heat to medium-low. Add the jaggery, turmeric, black pepper, and cardamom pods.
Stir and continue simmering for 6 to 8 minutes, until the oats have swelled and are soft and the oatmeal is bright yellow. Add 1 tablespoon of the non-hydrogenated plant-based spread and stir.
