Meatfree Monday: Banana Berry Oatmeal

     I love breakfast for dinner. In the summer, I also love light dinners. It's just to hot to eat heavy things. This oatmeal was filling, but not like a big greasy hamburger or heavy pasta would be. It was just satisfying and full of fruit which is a good healthy alternative to our normal pancakes for dinner on Sunday nights!
     This photo was taken from David Zinczenko's cookbook. My photo turned out totally unappetizing! The berries I used were frozen and ran into the oatmeal making it a funky color. The flavor was fantastic, and this photo shows how delicious the dish really is!


1 egg
1 cup milk
3/4 cup quick oats
1/2 cup mixed berries
1 Tbl chopped pecans or almonds
1 tsp vanilla protein powder
1 tsp ground flaxseed
1/2 banana, sliced
1 Tbl plain or vanilla yogurt

• Whisk everything but the banana and yogurt. 
• Cook until set (or microwave for a couple minutes until set)
• Let cool for a minute or two. 
• Top with banana and yogurt.
