This simple breakfast idea is hearty and refreshing. But, believe me, this isn't you're grandmother's oatmeal! We're mixing up the preparation, and making a more rustic oat cereal with a bit more body and texture than the classic mush you probably ate as a kid. And the sweet tropical flavor of mango, accented with hints of honey, really gets things all dressed up and ready for Summer.
Ingredients:
- 1 cup Old Fashioned Rolled Oats
- 1 cup Boiling Water
- 2 Tbs Brown Sugar
- 1 Mango (about 1 cup, diced)
- 2 Tbs Honey (+ more or less to taste)
Method;
Combine the oats and boiling water in a bowl, and allow to sit for a few minutes to plump the oats. Meanwhile, Cut your mango into bite sized pieces. Once the oats have absorbed the water, sprinkle the brown sugar over the top, and give it a stir. Top with the honey and mango, and...
Enjoy!
This recipe could technically serve 2... but if you choose to eat it all by yourself, I won't judge. ;o)
Sounds delicious! Plus, mango's been going on sale a lot lately and I'm always struggling to figure out what to eat for breakfast (well, and lunch and dinner too). :)
ReplyDeleteFunny you should say that. It was the fact that I bought a whole flat of Mangoes for just $5 that had me searching for ways to use them, and thus this recipe. I hope you like it. :o)
