"Breakfast is the most important meal of the day!".... ever hear that growing up? Well it is very important! I've recently changed my whole diet to clean eating and thought I would share my favourite quick breakfast meal with you!
You should be eating fruits every day, especially in the morning! And what goes great with fruits? Oatmeal! I've recently developed a LOVE for oatmeal, it's delicious, very healthy, fills you up, and you can add anything you want to it! In the mornings I tend to get up late and don't have much time to eat before I have to leave my house to go to school so I discovered how quick and easy this breakfast meal is.
I try to incorporate the healthiest options, excluding any extra sugars when making my oatmeal. I have a few ingredients I use every morning which I will list below! Let me know if you guys eat a lot of oatmeal and what kind of things you like to put in yours!

Step 1: OATS
Although steal-cut oats are the healthiest, they are a pain to make since you have to cook them so I just use the regular flaky oats either by Quaker or other organic brands with the least amount of processing. Oats are an excellent source of antioxidants, fibre, and lower cholesterol.
Step 2: CINNAMON
I LOVE cinnamon and it's very healthy for you (perfect!) so I always add a lot of cinnamon directly on the oats which helps give flavour so that I don't feel the need to add any sugar. Cinnamon is a high source of antioxidants, contains anti-inflammatory properties, protects heart health, and fights infections and viruses!
Step 3: FLAX SEEDS
As flax seeds are a rich source of micronutrients, dietary fibre, manganese, vitamin B1, and the essential fatty acid alpha-linolenic acid, also known as ALA or omega-3. I buy the organic golden flax seeds and add that to my oatmeal, tbh I don't even taste it so why not?
Step 4: ALMONDS
I also add sliced almonds to my oatmeal, which are high in calcium, iron, vitamin E, protein, fibre and they add a nice crunch!
Step 5: FRUITS
I add different fruits depending on what I feel like having, but I usually add blueberries and raspberries. Blueberries are an antioxidant, high in vitamins, fibre and are considered one of the healthiest foods in the world. Raspberries are my favourite fruit, so yum.. they are also an excellent source of vitamin C, manganese, and dietary fibre.
Step 6: HOT WATER
I know some people like to mix all their ingredients together by adding hot milk (which isn't good for you) or other hot substances. I just use hot water to blend everything together.
