Paleo Oatmeal.....say what!




                                                                  Paleo Oatmeal

So this gem of a recipe was introduced to me last week by Jer and Monica Ingersoll. It took me a couple attempts to get it just right but it is totally worth the attempts! I have been eating this post WOD as a recovery meal because of the amount of protein in it but Monica says shes been having it for breakfast for a while. Its so yummy!

So here goes:

1/2 cup egg whites (store bought or 3 to 4 eggs without the yolk)
1/2 scoop vanilla protein powder
2 T unsweetened vanilla almond milk (or other liquid)
1 T almond meal
1 tsp cinnamon
1/2 banana well mashed
1/4 tsp almond extract
1/8 tsp butter extract (I didn't have this so I didn't add this)

Place all the items in a sauce pan, mix together then turn stove on.
As this heats up you will notice it thickening up. Cook until you see the consistency you like. (on my stove this is about 5 mins) I over cooked this the first couple times and it was a little dry. After that I cooked until still moist.

As you can see I topped mine with two fresh strawberries cut into small pieces.
