Equipment

  • Sauce Pan This Circulon A1 Series non stick saucepan includes a glass straining lid. A great piece of cookware!
  • Glass Mixing Bowls These are ideal for mixing and baking either small or large batches of oatmeal in the microwave.

Ingredients
  

Instructions
 

  • In a small saucepan, cook oatmeal according to package directions, making sure to use 1 1/4 cup water. The extra water is necessary to help absorb the protein powder.
  • When the oatmeal is done cooking, stir in the protein powder. Cover and let the oatmeal sit for a couple minutes. Stir in the blueberries. Pour into bowl, and top with yogurt and almonds if desired. Enjoy right away.

Notes

Feel free to use your microwave to cook the oats instead of the stovetop. 
Microwave directions: to a microwave safe bowl add the water and oats. Microwave 1 minute on high. Stir oats. Microwave for 1 more minute. The oats will be watery. Don't drain off - the extra water is needed to mix in the protein powder. Mix in the protein powder and let oats sit for 1-2 minutes. Top with yogurt, blueberries and almonds. Enjoy right away while hot.
Want extra protein? Here are some additional protein options to mix in:
  • Greek Yogurt - for a 2/3 cup serving, you'll add an extra 20g of protein to your oats.
  • Cottage Cheese - for a 1/2 cup serving, you'll add an extra 13g of protein to your oatmeal.
  • Egg Whites - for 6 tablespoons of egg whites, you'll add an extra 10g of protein. Be sure to add the egg whites in while you are cooking the oatmeal.
