Berries & Cream Oats

Good morning! I have an easy breakfast recipe for you to make you feel a little fancy on those mornings when you need it. Do you ever just wake up and the weather is all dreary and it makes you want to curl up and not do ANYTHING?! That's a bit like how I'm feeling this week - the weather is sad and it's really affecting me. It always amazes me how much the weather really does affect my mood. Boy, do I really miss the Florida sunshine and heat sometimes.  Anyway, enough complaining...let's talk about this Berries and Cream oats recipe. They're delicious and so so easy. Also I've found a new love for full fat yogurt, which I dolloped on top. I don't eat much dairy. Cheese sometimes in my eggs or on top of salads or meals and that's about it. I'll go in and out of phases where I love yogurt or hate it. Lately I've been loving it I've promised myself that I'll never buy non-fat or low-fat yogurt again. You guys, once you try a full fat cream yogurt (I've been buying this one from Trader Joe's) you'll never want to go back to non-fat. For one, the taste is incredible. It tastes like straight cream and I'm totally okay with that. Secondly, it is minimally processed and it contains HALF the amount of sugar as any of the other non-fat or low-fat plain yogurts. When products are stripped of the fat, companies will add in sugar to make it taste better. NO, BAD. It also contains a boat load of calcium. Go full fat, I dare you. I promise you won't get fat.

[yumprint-recipe id='25'] I just devoured my bowl and it was DELICIOSO. Now I'm off to go take a yoga class that I'm hoping will allow me to take a nice little nap before I go into work for the afternoon and night. I'm totally a morning person, but it really catches up to me when I'm training until 9pm at night. How do I teach myself to sleep in?!?!?

Have a great Tuesday!!
