Hi friends, So I developed a healthy Christmas dessert recipe earlier in the month and took some gorgeous photos of the creation. Only to leave them on my other camera (I have 3 cameras…4 if you count the phone) back in SF. Wahhh. I’ll still share it once I get access to the photos. But in the meantime, here’s another little gem I made for you – a Honey Flax Almond Butter Oatmeal recipe.
This is the perfect healthy breakfast recipe when you haven’t been to the grocery store recently. Perhaps you may want to try it when you get done with holiday travel? Not sure about you, but I’m usually SO tired after holiday travel and am also so not interested in grocery shopping. Even when the appetite calls.
Although not as sexy as some of my other recipe creations, this is the kind of thing I could eat literally every day.
This Honey Flax Almond Butter Oatmeal Recipe is an easy clean eating recipe that tastes good and keeps me full.
I discovered this type of breakfast when I was on my non-restrictive weight loss journey. With a few simple ingredients, I could have a hot, cozy, tasty breakfast that I truly enjoyed eating. Prior to this, I think I just overcomplicated things. I thought too much about what I was eating and then tried difficult recipes. But the back-to-basics approach is what worked best for me. Recipes like this guy.
This recipe is already vegetarian. But if you want to make it vegan, simply use vegan milk and swap the honey for a vegan liquid sweetener of choice, like maple syrup.
