O meu pequeno-almoço com
flocos de aveia e mirtilos é muito mais simples. Cozo-os no microondas com
leite de amêndoa e depois junto os mirtilos e alguns frutos secos e/ou
sementes.

Blueberry Coconut Oatmeal Pudding
As days become longer during the summer, it's
important we are all getting enough nutrients and calories that our bodies need
to conquer the day! This recipe is quick and simple, packed with nutrient and
healthy sweeteners to keep you energized in the morning. Blueberries can be
highly effective at slowing down the rate of tooth decay. Whilst, oatmeal is
filled with beneficial vitamins, fibers, minerals and antioxidants; as a bonus,
they're gluten free!
Ingredients: (For 6 servings)
- 1 cup water
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1 14-ounce can unsweetened low-fat
coconut milk
- 2 to 4 tablespoons mild honey or agave
nectar (to taste)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup quick-cooking steel-cut oats
- 1/2 teaspoon rose water (available at
Middle Eastern markets - or substitutions include lemon juice or cinnamon)
- 1 cup blueberries (6 ounces)
Instructions:
Combine the water, salt,
coconut milk, honey or agave nectar and vanilla in a large (3-quart) saucepan
and bring to a boil. Stir in the oatmeal and bring back to a boil, stirring.
Reduce the heat to low, cover and simmer 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. Stir
in half the blueberries, cover, and cook another 5 minutes, until the oats are
cooked and the mixture is creamy.
Stir in the rose water and
the remaining blueberries. Turn off the heat, return the lid and let sit for 5
to 10 minutes. Serve right away, or spoon into serving dishes and allow to cool
in the refrigerator.
