A perfect breakfast for maintaining my energy throughout the day. If you’re finding yourself reaching for a second, third cup of coffee, or craving something sweet halfway through the morning, definitely try oats in a jar!
I’ve never been a big eater first thing in the morning, but this oatmeal is light enough on my stomach that I don’t feel as if I’m overindulging.
There are endless combinations of these little healthy treats. The basic one I usually use is listed below and add in extras as you wish.
They contain more protein than most grains (5g per serving).
They’re a rich source of fiber, which helps satisfy your hunger (4g per serving).
They’re high in antioxidants which may help lower blood pressure levels.
