I've been away

Sorry I've been away for a while! I'm still revelling in the amazing news of my acceptance to Ryerson :D

To make up for it, it's time for ANOTHER RECIPE!!!!! This is one of my favourite breakfasts on earth. It sounds insane, but bear with me, it tastes amazing!

Peanut Butter and Banana Oatmeal
1/4 c steel cut oats (you can use quick oats too, but I like the steel cut kind better)
1 banana
1 tbsp peanut butter (either natural or non. I find that the non-natural kind makes it taste sweeter)

Cook your steel cut oats according to package directions. Usually, this will mean 1/4 c oats and 1c water. Bring it to a boil, then reduce the heat and simmer for 15-20 minutes stirring regularly.
Break up a banana in your oatmeal bowl and mash it up with a fork till it's nice and mushy (TIP: put the broken up banana in the microwave for about 15 seconds to soften it up. This will make it really easy to mash!)
When your oats are done, put them in the bowl with your mashed banana and stir it up. Add the peanut butter and stir well. You're done!

This breakfast is CRAZY filling! You even get two full servings of fruit while you're at it! It's a little heavy on the Points values, but it will keep you full till at least noon, so it's totally worth it!

What's your favourite breakfast?
