Creamy Morning Oatmeal
Oatmeal became a staple in my pantry during my gut health journey. I found it to be the perfect way to kick start my system (if you know what I mean), while also filling me up and not bothering my tummy in the morning. Making oatmeal was also a great way for me to prioritize my morning breakfast routine, instead of rushing through it. I recommend using your oatmeal as a vehicle to get your daily serving of fruits into your diet!
