Pretty in Pink Berry Oatmeal

Category: BreakfastCollection: Vegetarian Recipes

Ingredients

  • 1 cup water
  • 1/2 cup frozen mixes berries
  • 1/2 cup oatmeal
  • 2 tablespoon flax seeds (optional)
  • sweetener (brown vegan sugar, vegan maple syrup, whatever)

Directions

The best part of this one may be the
color- the oats soak up the berry
juices and you end up with a bowl of
magenta cereal!

Good with a multi-grain cereal instead
of straight oatmeal. The flax seeds
aren't necessary but they give a
little bit of nutty flavor and are
good for you too. I used a frozen
berry mix from Trader Joe's that had
blueberries, raspberries and
blackberries. Fresh berries would be
fantastic.

1. Pour a small amount of water (1/4
cup or less) into a non-stick pot or
pan. Turn heat on high and add the
berries. Simmer until berries start to
break apart (just a couple of minutes).

2. Add oatmeal, flax seeds, and the
rest of the water. Turn down the heat
and let it simmer, stirring often.

3. Pour it in a bowl, sweeten as
desired.
