How To Keep Your Blood Sugar Levels Normal Fading

Overnight Peanut Butter Banana Pudding Oatmeal: Oats are combined with ripe bananas, peanut butter, maple syrup, and coconut milk and refrigerated overnight. The result: a creamy, healthy, breakfast that tastes just like one your favorite desserts. 

Saturday mornings at our house typically consist of pancakes of some sort. The reason is that it is one my husband’s most favorite things to eat for breakfast, and after a long week of work, I tend to make Saturday mornings’ breakfast about him. Of course there are no complaints from anyone when it comes to pancakes, as we all love them.

So imagine my surprise when I asked my husband his request for Saturday breakfast and he replied, “Oatmeal. ”

Oatmeal?!!  I think my chin hit the floor. He has NEVER requested oatmeal. In fact, while my kids and I could live on oatmeal, he turns his nose up to every time I sit a bowl of it down in front of him.

He continued to say, “You know that oatmeal you gave me earlier this week was incredible–that banana one.”  So he liked it? Turns out, he LOVED it. I was not about to tell him it was vegan, gluten free, naturally sweetened and healthy. I was just going to make it and smile to myself. Healthy foods can and do taste good!

The best part about this oatmeal is that I can make up a batch for my family in 5 minutes with no mess to clean up. Now that starts my Saturday morning off on the right foot for sure. 

Trust me, if my husband claims this as a winner, you will too. Everyone will think they are eating a bit of dessert for breakfast–and it will be our little secret just how healthy this dish is!

*Note: Omit peanut butter for a nut free version that is just as tasty. I just can never resist adding peanut butter to things!

These also make the most perfect breakfast on the go. I found them to be perfect for my kids to eat in the car on the way to school after we slept in one morning
