chocolate oats 5 ways.
I’m supposed to be in India right now, living in an ashram on the Himalayas whilst learning ancient yogic philosophy, asanas and nutrition from some incredible life-long yogi’s. Instead I’m sofa surfing in London cooking up chocolate oats, bolognese and roasts for my mates in return for a place to stay (because I forgot to sort my visa out…)
I’m not complaining. It’s been nice chillin in London for a bit and cooking for my friends (my love language). So, because they’ve asked for this recipe I thought I kill two birds with one stone (and get some more website views). This ones for you Issy babes:
chocolate oats 5 ways.
I’ve added flaxseed to each recipe as it’s:
rich in omega-3,
helps to regulate blood sugar,
is rich in fibre and
has a ton of nutrients in.
And, you can’t taste it. So, it’s an easy way to start your day with a cheeky little health boost.
