27

HAPPY BIRTHDAY KANZ!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

this !

[Matt turns 27 today :mrgreen:]

I celebrated with a wonderful shower and a bowl of overnight oats

IMG_3439 (640x427)

  • ~1/3 cup Oikos (all I had left 🙁 )
  • 1/3 cup oats
  • ~1/2 cup milk (too much so it was pretty liquidy!)
  • 1 smallish banana
  • 1 tbsp chia
  • Pinch salt
  • Crunchy Coconut Granola
  • Pumpkin butter
  • Maranatha AB

Combine the first 6 the night before. Stir. Put in fridge. Wait overnight. Add toppings. Eat cold. NO COOKING INVOLVED!!!

IMG_3437 (640x427)

Combine

IMG_3443 (640x427)

A lucky 7 as part of 2-7!!!!!!!!!!!

IMG_3442 (640x427)

IMG_3435 (640x427)

I’m cooking (a.k.a. steaming) Vanilla Cinnamon Oatmeal for ~40 cafeteria managers today! Should be exciting.

    Gotta try the oats.

    Regarding the school food, is it just your particular district or has school food come a long way in the past 10-15 years? I’m in NC too and amazed with your tales of the cafeteria since I hear such poor things about NC school systems. Lucky kids!

    Happy birthday Matt! Just wanted to stay that I’ve been reading your blog for a while now and you have been a huge inspiration for me to start my own blog! Seriously , your way of life has been such a motivation tool for me. And a sincere thanks for introducing me to OATS. Before I started reading these blogs I NEVER used oats, can you believe it?! Now they are part of my daily routine.

    hi! Im Kath.

    I'm a Registered Dietitian, healthy eater, and mom of two from Charlottesville, Virginia. Here you’ll find a healthy mix of real-life meals made from whole ingredients balanced with the pleasures of life, including buttercream frosting and good wine. Plus a sprinkle of nutrition, home life, beauty, parenting, and travel.
