Chocolate Covered Strawberry Oatmeal
This post is brought to you by Bob’s Redmill. All opinions are my own.
My chocolate covered strawberry oatmeal is perfect for a romantic breakfast. Valentine’s Day is right around the corner so I decided to do a fun twist on one of the most popular Valentine’s desserts, chocolate covered strawberries! This recipe combines creamy vegan hazelnut milk, rolled oats, natural sweetness, fruit and fun toppings to create a decadent but healthy breakfast. Perfect as an alternative option to more calorie dense breakfast favorites like pancakes or french toast. This recipe can be enjoyed hot or cold depending on what mood you’re in,
If you’re new here, I am the self-proclaimed “Oatmeal Queen” around these parts. I have even coined the term #oatMel. I eat oatmeal for breakfast at least 4 times a week. From hot to cold, vanilla to chocolate, sweet to savory- I have learned to become pretty creative with the ways I consume my oats. Check out my apple pie oatmeal or Pb & J oats recipes for more inspiration.
Although I eat my oatmeal in many different ways, one thing always stays the same. The brand of oats I use. I’ve been using Bob’s Redmill Gluten Free Organic Old Fashioned Rolled Oats for years. All of their products are quality that I can trust. I’m a firm believer that to feel well, you must eat well and part of eating well is to choose the very best ingredients. Bob’s Redmill Gluten Free Organic Old Fashioned Rolled Oats are USDA Organic, 100% Wholegrain, Non- GMO, and high in fiber. Truly the best of the best.
