My lil man who got the black eye is doing soo much better! I am tellin ya', if I wasn't putting that arnica on it, it would be way worse!
We also had some company this week-end, so I put off posting recipes! But I am ready to go, and am praying that I will have the time to keep getting on up everyday!!! Ya know, running around after 4 lil ones, and teaching 3 of them, it does have it's challenges! But I LOVE it and I would NOT trade it for anything!!! :D
I wanted something easy and fast, but healthy and good for my kids this morning. My kids love oatmeal, and I still have a ton of it in my freezer, but I didn't just want to do the basic, same ole same ole for them. SO.... Got my creative juices flowing and this is what we did!
They LOVED it, I tried it, in all honesty, I am not a huge fan of it! I think it's the greek yogurt. They LOVE it, me, not so much. You could use regular yogurt as well. I am thinking if I would've used that, then I could've eaten it...
Add your orange juice....
And milk.....
And yogurt....
And vanilla to a bowl... stir to combine
Then add your oats
Stir it up to combine
Here's what it looks like after it's sat for 10 minutes!
Add your chopped, diced apples (you can peel them or leave the peeling on... For the sake of my littlest one, I left the peelings off... )
And then the chopped almonds (I got a little slap happy with my Vitamix and chopping almonds! ;))
Here it is all done! Sorry, I didn't take the time to photoshop these pics, esp this one, it's a bit orangey looking... My kitchen lighting stinks! ;) Fruit and Oat Muesli
2/3 cups orange juice
2/3 cup milk
2/3 cup plain greek yogurt
1 teaspoon vanilla
