Feeling extra fall this morning with the crisp air, perfect day for oatmeal. This is a great breakfast utilizing pantry ingredients. Misfits Market is where I love to stock up not only on great organic produce, but also on all my favorite Bobs Red Mill products. In this batch of oatmeal; we used thick cut, which needs a little more cooking time, but worth it in flavor. If you do not have thick cut, use what you have on hand, just adjust the cooking time ((Quick cooking oats may only need 3-4 minutes cooking time))
Breakfast is from two of my favorites Aldi and Misfits - where you can find both affordable and organic products. You do not have to over pay for healthy food, there are ways to save money and still eat well!
