Spotlight on: Steel Cut Oats!

Steel cut oats might take a long time to prepare are worth every toothsome, delicious bite! Steel cuts also pack a flavorful powerhouse, boasting B-vitamin bounty, whole grain goodness and filling, slowly-digesting fiber and carbs. While many feel that the chewy texture and maybe even “bland” flavor of steel cut oats is a dull and boring way to start the day, steel cut oats can  take on a whole new deliciousness very quickly. Try adding any of these toppings (I like to lace the whole bowl with them instead of just having them on top) to your morning bowl & enjoy the luscious flavors and hearty nutrition of steel cut oats!

-fresh sliced strawberries with 1 tsp lowfat whipped topping (such as Cool Whip)

-raisins, with a pinch of cinnamon and brown sugar

-fresh figs, cut into bite-size pieces

-half an apple (I like granny smith best) cut into bite size pieces, with a drizzle of honey

-1% milk and a drizzle of honey

-just plain old brown sugar, cinnamon, cloves and handful of toasted walnuts…for delicious flavor, crunchy-chewy texture and a nice “good morning!” warming. Mmmm…
