Yes sirree, I am completely on a strawberry trip!! Snacking on them all the time, putting them in salads, smoothies, baking with them and now in this Cashew Strawberry Oatmeal for a fabulous, warm, comforting breakfast!
Clean eating January is going well for me. Completely off refined flour, refined sugar is down to the bare minimum, loading up on lots of water, simply cooked food...I'll be sharing some easy delicious, healthy recipes along my journey. So keep your eyes peeled here!!
Coming back to this pretty oatmeal bowl...I have a little quick strawberry sauce action happening here. It took me no more than a few minutes to make, so while the oatmeal was cooking, this luscious sauce was getting done at the same time! You can always make some extra and pour over your pancakes, toasts, waffles, even on a simple pound cake slice, toasted...sooooooo good!
Homemade Cashew Milk is my absolute favorite. It really gives creaminess like no other non-dairy milk. It takes such little time and effort to make it, that its worth it to have a small bottle ready in your fridge. You can use it to add instant richness to any curry, soup, dal, and even your pasta sauce!
So this velvety Cashew Strawberry Oatmeal really takes no more than ten minutes to put together..its gorgeous to look at, wholesome and gratifying....with real flavors from real foods. Keep the nasties of boxed varieties away!! Nourish yourself, eat well, and keep sparkling!
Who said healthy eating can’t be fun and yummy?!!
