Notes
- If you prefer things sweeter, then you could add zero calorie sweetener or another sugar of your choice.
- A healthy calorie range for breakfast is 350-500 calories for average statured individuals. This oatmeal is much better for you because the carbohydrates are balanced with protein. The calories are higher than a breakfast of oatmeal on its own due to the protein. Please see the blog post for more details on why the protein is a necessity to balance your breakfast when eating something healthy like oatmeal.
