Tea Oatmeal Rocks!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Ingredients:
1/4 cup oatmeal (I used Coach's Oats)
1 & 1 1/2 cups brewed chai (I used Tazo, but any kind will do)
1/2 mashed banana
1 Splenda packet
almonds, raisins, and pumpkin seeds to garnish

Cooking tip:
I like my oatmeal really creamy, and this cooking tip seems to really do the trick. Combine oatmeal and 1 cup of the chai the night before, bring to a boil for just a quick second, and then turn off the heat and cover the pot with a lid. In the morning add the other 1/2 cup of chai, mashed banana, Splenda, and finish cooking the oatmeal like you normally would.

Tea oats are heavenly.
