The Occasion: Breakfast
The Recipe: From the steel cut oats package, with tips from my friend Nina about adding frozen fruit!
How it went: This is my favorite breakfast now. I sit right next to the stove while it’s cooking and read while I wait for it to finish, lifting the lid every so often so it doesn’t boil over. It’s a wonderful morning routine.

Your Turn:
Bring 3/4 C of water to a boil.
Add 1/4 C steel cut oats.
Reduce heat and cover. Simmer about 5-8 minutes, until all water is absorbed. Don’t go too far away! They will boil over if you don’t lift the lid every 30 seconds or so to let the steam out.
In the meantime, prepare your bowl with
· Brown sugar
· Frozen berries
· Chopped pecans (toasted, if you’d like)
(Quantities are up to you)
When the oats are done, stir them into the bowl with your nuts, sugar and fruit.
Savor alone or with coffee to start your day off right!
