Power Breakfast & Today's Workout Playlist

Hi Everyone!

As I am sure you've heard, breakfast is the most important meal of the day. I notice that if I eat a big, well-balanced breakfast then I eat better throughout the day, am much happier and generally have a better day overall. I have recently come up with this oatmeal recipe that I love and I want to share with you today.

I love how simple and delicious this recipe is. If you watch my YouTube channel, you know that I include the nutrition facts with my recipes so you'll find that at the bottom of this recipe as well.

This oatmeal is perfect for a cold morning, however, if you find yourself wanting something refreshing. Check out my Acai Bowl recipe (this is more of a smoothie).

Please leave a comment if you try my recipe!

"Peanut Butter Cookie" Oatmeal:

Ingredients:

1/4 cup steel cut oats (before cooking)

2 Tbsp unsweetened vanilla almond milk

1 Tbsp peanut butter

1-2 tsp sweetener (brown sugar, stevia, agave, & maple syrup are my favorites)

Directions:

1) Cook your oatmeal according to instructions on the box (I use precooked oatmeal from Costco and you just pop it in the microwave for one minute)

2) Mix in the almond milk, peanut butter, & sweetener (today I used 1.5 tsp agave)

Once I have a great breakfast or meal, I'm fueled for my workout of the day. I tend to listen to a lot of pop/top 40 music & remixes to get me pumped up during my workout. Here's my workout playlist of the day (WPOTD?):
