Recipe for an oatmeal breakfast
Do you recognize this feeling? You've just had a huge amount of bread during breakfast, but one hour later you feel hungry again. The following recipe comes to your rescue! This breakfast is the ideal combination of slow releasing carbohydrates, fibres and proteins. Furthermore, it is low in saturated fat and contains a lot of essential nutrients.
Personally,
I don't like those strange units like "a teaspoon", "a cup" because all spoons
and cups are different. So I give the quantities in this recipe in grams. By
using a kitchen scale, you can make sure you add the right amounts.
Ingredients
- 100
grams Rolled Oats (no sugar added)
- 300
mL low fat- GEEN STREEPIE. or buttermilk
- Optional,
of: if desired: 25 gram whey-protein (for the sportive types among us)
- Preparation
- Mix
300 mL milk with 100 grams of rolled oats in a bowl.
- Put
it for 3 to 4 minutes in the microwave (650 W) until the First bubbles will
appear in the bowl.
- Stir
it and leave it on the table for 5 minutes to cool before you tuck into it!.
Comments
- Make
sure you buy rolled oats without added sugar. Natural rolled oats contain 1
gram of sugar per 100 gram. You can vary this recipe breakfast by adding e.g.
pieces of fruit, almonds, hazelnuts and/or raisins
- This
breakfast is rich in calcium, phosphor, vitamin B1 and magnesium. The amount of
calories looks pretty high, but the
Gi-value is very low. This means that it takes a lot of time to digest the
food. Therefore it gives you long term energy and you won't grab cookies or
candy for the rest of the morning.
- If
you practice weight training, you can optionally add whey protein. By adding an
common amount (24 grams), this breakfast will give you 48 grams of protein.
