oatmeal

The other day Spencer made a super delicioso breakfast!! It was french toast and I asked him how he made it and he said like this:

2 eggs

1/4 c milk

2 tbs flour

3 tbs sugar

1/4 tsp salt

1/4 tsp cinnamon

1/2 tsp vanilla

5 pinches with all fingers oatmeal

bread

whip cream (optional)

love & dedication (not optional)

Did you catch that oatmeal in there?! He followed the recipe from Cooking For Two, then said that adding oatmeal just sounded good. 
And it was good. Super good!

And then the other day my dear cousin Kaylodio came over and told me about combining oatmeal with Summer's fruit that comes in baby jars! I don't really know if it was good or not, I didn't taste it. But it looked good, and she ate it all, so naturally I'm going to assume it was the best thing she has ever eaten in her entire life.

I decided to look up the health benefits of oatmeal, just so I can sound somewhat legit later in this post when  I reccommend adding oatmeal to all your daily eats. Some of them included lowering cholesterol, lowers risk for diabetes, boosts immune system, helps your heart, stabilizes blood sugar and studies have shown that is is gluten friendly!! (Obviously that gluten friendly perk is only if you don't put your oatmeal into yummy things like French toast and cookies..bummer)

So I think that oatmeal is a superfood ingredient that you can add to foods and it makes it healthier without tasting healthier and you can probably add it to random things you never would have thought of before and it will be delish! 
Oatmeal + French Toast?? Who would have known it equals amazingness.**

oh yeah we also had a smoothie mmmm

**now that people actually know of the existence of this blog, I am suddenly self conscious of what I write.. What if french toast and oatmeal is a way common thing that people have been aware of for quite some time?! Have you ever tried it?
