Raspberry oatmeal

BREAKFAST Raspberry oatmeal topped with nuts and raspberries

It's finally weekend, so why not celebrate it with this lovely bowl of wonderful, tasty and healthy raspberry oatmeal?!  Just looking at that dark pink gorgeous color makes me happy, and the taste was even better (: The weather today is so good here in Denmark, the sun is shining and the sky is blue, so i think i'm going to take a good long run after posting this. Nothing better to kickstart the day, it leaves me with so much good energy and positivity. Tonight i'm planning a trip to the cinema with some of my best buddies, really looking forward to get some time with my girls, I miss them alot! We really haven't seen much to eachother during the exams, to busy studying. I'm so glad that it's over verry soon! I wish you all a wonderful, happy and healthy weekend - Much love! (:

Ingredients
1 serving

The oatmeal
0,5 cup of rolled oats
1 cup of raspberries (I used frozen)
1 cup of water or milk
Vanilla extract
Sweetener (Stevia, honey etc.)

The topping
A couple of raspberries
A handful of mixed nuts


Start by heating up the berries in the microwave, until the consistency is nice and smooth (about 1 minute). Now, mix the rest of the oatmeal ingredients into it, and put it in the microwave again for about 2-3 minutes, until the consistency is the way you like it. At last, top it with a bit of raspeberries and nuts. There you go - ready to be enjoyed!

Coconut oatmeal

BREAKFAST Coconut oatmeal topped with banana, coconut and flaxseeds

I really love experimenting with my oatmeal at the moment, and this must be one of my favorites! I really love coconut, and toghether with the sweet banana it really brings out all the amazing flavours! It actually reminds me of the beach, verry exotic and yummy (: Coconut is also super healthy for you. It's verry rich on lauric acid, which is known for being verry antibacterial and antifungal. It also contains zero trans fatty acids, which is pretty amazing! I put half of the banana in the porridge, and use the other half as topping. If you want to, you can add some extra sweetener such as honey or stevia. I cook my porridge in the microwave, super easy and just as good! Cook it for about 2-3 minutes.

Ingredients
1 serving

0,5 cup of oats
1 cup of water (you can also use milk)
2 Tbsp of desiccated coconut

1 banana (half in the porride half for topping) 
Flaxseeds, cherries and a bit of coconut for topping
Optional: sweetener such as honey or stevia

Dreamy chocolate oats

BREAKFAST Chocolate oatmeal topped with banana, raspberries and sunflower seeds

Good morning! Just wanted to share this amazing breakfast with you guys. Actually, it's the first time i'm trying the famous chocolate oats, and i am not disappointed! It was so chocolaty, creamy and yet still verry healthy. Cocoa is actully a fruit, and a verry healthy one! It's packed with antioxidants and flavonoids, which helps prevent cancer, diabetes and heartdiseases. Plus, it's high on fibers and protein, not bad! I will definitely be making those again! I didn't add any sweetener, i just used the sweetness from the banana, which worked just fine. Yum yum, I can still taste the creamy dreamy chocolate in my mouth, love it! (:

Ingredients
1 serving

The oatmeal
0,5 cup of rolled oats
1 cup of water or milk
2 tsp of cocoa powder
1 banana
Optional: sweetener such as stevia or honey

The topping
A handful of raspberries
Banana slices
A sprinkle of sunflower seeds
