on Feb 18, 2019, Updated Feb 07, 2025 I’ve been loving oatmeal lately, and there are so many ways to enjoy it without getting bored! I’m sharing tasty oatmeal recipes to spice up your meal plan and start the day right. One of the biggest adjustments to my FASTer Way to Fat Loss journey was not having breakfast first thing in the morning. I have always been a breakfast person and I didn’t know if I was capable of waiting until 11am to eat each day (on this plan we fast for 16 hours and eat during an 8 hour window) but I was willing to try. What I quickly realized was even if I don’t start eating til later in the day, I can still start my day with breakfast food. It was a win win! On my regular macro days, I love breaking my fast with a nice hearty oatmeal. It’s a great way to get some carbs in and feel like I’m still having breakfast, even if it’s for lunch!
15 Tasty Oatmeal Recipes
I love a classic bowl of oatmeal as much as the next gal but sometimes I need something a little more fun. Sometimes breakfast includes a little brown sugar or some cocoa powder. You would be surprised at how filling a 1/2 cup of old fashioned rolled oats can be. Especially if it starts with banana nut or apple cinnamon! I’m loving these oatmeal recipes because now that I’m on an eating plan that loves carbs, it feels like such a treat!
Simple Oatmeal Tastes Good Too
On the days when you run out of ingredients or just didn’t have time to think ahead, simple oatmeal is just as good. I keep quick oats and maple syrup on hand and that’s what I have most days. It’s delicious! If you had told me growing up that one day I would want to eat oatmeal, I might not have believed you. We’ve come a long way baby!
If I really want to get fancy, sometimes I even throw in a splash of coconut almond milk. I wanted to add this little trick because even when we love trying new recipes, some days we just need a quick fix. No judging here! Want to try something other than oatmeal? Check out my spicy black bean burger with egg recipe. It’s SO good!
