Herbal Oats

We’ve all heard that breakfast is the most important meal of the day. But, I’m not one to eat a big meal so early in the day, so oatmeal is a great choice. This is my favorite way to enjoy healthy oats.

Good for your heart and digestive system.

Oats with slippery elm bark and flax seeds

Ingredients

• 1/2 cup milk of choice
• 1/2 cup water
• 1/2 cup old fashioned oats
• 1 teaspoon each slippery elm bark powder
• 1 teaspoon flax seeds, crushed

Directions

Cook on med heat until creamy, usually 10 minutes. Reduce heat if it boils too much. Remove from heat and pour in your favorite bowl.

Top with brown sugar, cinnamon, berries, or whatever you wish. I like a sprinkling of brown sugar.

This is for one serving but can be easily increased.
