Happy Saturday morning!
I used the famous “Blended Oatmeal” Trick on the oatmeal. Then I added banana and a healthy dose of peanut butter. Perhaps it was the addition of the pb that helped me to not miss my chocolate. Or maybe it was the oatmeal, itself. After all, I love oatmeal almost as much as I love chocolate. Wait, I said almost!
I had blueberry oatmeal, but it wasn’t nearly as exciting as yours. I’ve never tried blending oats. Maybe I should sometime.
Happy Saturday morning to you, too! Your blended oatmeal looks like a great start to the day.
It’s almost dinner time here but the thought of my breakfast is still making me happy. I had some rye bread with cottage cheese and apricot jam. And a glass of boza (whatever this is 😀 ). Yum!
Hey, you could always do breakfast for dinner! 😉
you know, i’ve never tried the blender method! my blender at home is awful and vita-mixes are soooo expensive but i’ve never really seen the hand blender! it looks much easier to clean and probably less expensive 😉
i do love your melted banana trick though! god bless the microwave hehe 🙂 and i honestly do not understand ppl who don’t like chocolate!! in my family i’m the only die-hard chocoholic. the rest of my fam loves lays potato chips, which is dumbfounding to me.
have a great weekend!
hahaha well, more chocolate for you! 😉
And ick, why wold anyone choose greasy potato chips over dark, rich, luxurious chocolate? But my family is that way too! Silly families!
I’ve done the blending thing– but I have an even cleaner way to do it! I just grind the oats in a little spice grinder prior to cooking them and it gives me silky oatmeal pudding. I hate having to shew my oats, and this method is so delish!
I actually got up 5 minutes ago– so I haven’t had breakfast yet. It is probably going to be something with oatmeal and Italian plums though. Mmmmm… Italian plums– I’m going to take them off the neighbors tree!

Plum stealer!
Ha, if my neighbors had fresh plums on their tree, I’d steal some too. Especially for oatmeal!
i love your blended grains trick! i’ve even gotten my roommate into it! lol our room is pretty noisy now in the mornings, between your blended oatmeal and our green monsters we make from angela’s blog. our blenders get a workout!
Funnily enough, we had a CCK recipe for breakfast today: Brownie Batter Pancakes :). Kids ate ’em up. Tomorrow might have to be blended oats. Or maybe even your blueberry blended bulgur (although daughter dearest doesn’t like blueberries, so we’ll sub strawberries for hers).
I had a cherry green monster and a handful of almonds after the gym. Time to go find something to put chocolate chips into!
cherry green monster???! oh wow i never tried that fruit combo! thanks for the idea.
*takes notes!*
Agreed, miss CCK. Love my oatmeal non- blended or blended, like a smoothie texture. Whatever form it’s in, I do love my oats.
P.S– you’re REALLY making me want oatmeal and I’m away from home currently not able to have any! Arg!
*Sends oatmeal over the internet. Did you get it? ;)*
Pumpkin oatmeal was my breakfast this morning. I always forget to blend them though.
I had apple bread with a mixed berry smoothie. It doesn’t sound as good as everyone else’s breakfast though!
I dunno… apple bread sounds pretty good to me!
