N'oatmeal

I miss oatmeal. 

like woah. 

Nothing starts the day off quite like a giant bowl of hot mus. 

Primal Britain has a recipe for Paleo Porridge that FastPaleo.com introduced to me...

I have been fairly skeptical of "paleo"izing breakfast options. Sure I've had some tasty paleo- "pancakes" but they aren't pancakes. They are in the shape of pancakes, I am eating them at breakfast, I could pour maple syrup on them, but it is still not in fact a pancake.
Don't get me started on waffles....

But Primal Britain's recipe is in fact delicious and reminds me somewhat of the instant oatmeal I'd eat as a kid (or a college student). Anyone else remember eating banana nut oatmeal growing up? Somehow those geniuses at Quaker infused a packet of powdery business with the bananaiest of flavor without actually harming any bananas in the making.

This recipe is similar... but better... and I'm sorry, real bananas are used.
 I created my own version this morning and it really is quite tasty, consistency is perfect and its packed with good fats and protein.

Liz's N'Oatmeal

Serves 1

1 small, ripe banana

1/4 cup unsweetened almond milk

1/4 cup almonds

1/4 cashews

1 tsp cinnamon

1/4 cup egg white protein powder (optional)

Put all ingredients in food processor, except  egg white powder, and blitz until desired consistency is reached. Don't over blend, it'll get too mushy.

Pour food processor contents into a small sauce pan and warm over medium heat, stirring constantly to avoid sticking. Remove from heat and slowly sift in egg white powder stirring well to fully incorporate.

Serve with dried cherries or raisins on top.
