Super Awesome PB Oatmeal

For a healthy protein enriched breakfast, this recipe is the bomb! Especially if you like peanut butter, as I am all too keen on.

1/2 cup old-fashioned (or quick) oats
1 cup water
1 scoop vanilla protein powder
1 tsp or more of natural peanut butter
a tiny handful of chopped nuts (whatever kind you like and this is optional)

1. Make the oats according to directions, I just nuke for about 3 mins for the old-fashioned kind.
2. Stir in the protein powder and peanut butter.
3. Add the nuts and enjoy!

The nuts add a little crunchy texture to the oatmeal that I really like.

The nutritional contents (without the added nuts!) is approx.:
325 cals, 11g fat (pb is what really raises it), 32g carbs, 25g protein.

After a hearty workout, this just makes my belly happy!! enjoy :) :)
