Banana Oatmeal

Oats are one of my favorite recipes because they are healthy and filling. I use whole grain rolled quaker oats these are comparatively better in nutritional value than the quick cooking oats. The recipe is very simple and can be prepared in 10 minutes. Banana oats are my favorite breakfast as it keeps me full until afternoon. This recipe is also good for the diabetic patients as heart patients. Oats are very right option for a weight loss, because of low glycemic index and high fiber content. They are anti inflammatory and rich in antioxidants. I prefer having my breakfast after workout but i have to drop my kiddo at the school and go to gym, so I usually have breakfast before my workout.

Half cup of whole grain rolled oats ( old fashioned oats)

Water 1cup

In a thick bottom vessel add oats and rinse it once. Add a cup of water and bring it to boil, keep stirring it until it thickens and cooks throughly.

Serve it in a serving bowl and sprinkle some nuts on top and enjoy!
