“I’m not really a breakfast person.”
How many times have you heard someone say that? I’ve been known to say it myself. And usually when I say it, it doesn’t really mean I don’t want breakfast.
It just means that either 1) I’m too lazy to make it or 2) I don’t have any great ideas. Because as much as I can be creative in other areas of my life, I can enter a creative dry spell almost immediately when it comes to what to eat in the morning.
It’s hard! And I’m tired.
Despite my exhaustion, which I know we’re all experiencing these days, I’ve come up with another great oatmeal recipe (like my chocolate overnight oats!) that I know you’re going to love.
Have you ever had baked oatmeal? What about blueberry baked oatmeal?? My friends – you are in for a real treat.
If you’ve never made baked oatmeal before, it’s really easy. Let me sum it up for you: you’re going to throw ingredients into a bowl, stir them, and then bake them.
Oh, and you have to mash some bananas too. Which, if you have some kids that need something to do? This is a great task for them. Who doesn’t love to mash stuff?
