Healthy pumpkin breakfast zoats
An easy-to-make veggie-filled breakfast packed with protein and the yummy taste of pumpkin.
Ingredients
- 1/3 cup of oats
- 1/3 cup of egg whites
- 1/3 cup of milk any kind, I used organic nonfat
- 1/2 shredded or finely grated zucchini
- 1/3 cup of pumpkin
- 1 teaspoon of chia seeds
- 1 sprinkling of ground cinnamon
- 1 packet of stevia optional
Instructions
- Using a cheese grater or food processor, finely chop up and mince the zucchini.
- Mix the zucchini, egg whites, milk and oats into a pot on medium heat, stirring immediately.
- Once the mixture starts to become creamy, add in the chia seeds, cinnamon, stevia and pumpkin.
- Cook for a total of five minutes or until you reach the desired consistency.
- Put in a bowl, add on your topping of choice, serve and enjoy.
Notes
I used the mincer in my Nutribullet to chop up the zucchini, and I would have preferred larger chunks, so I'd suggest using a cheese grater. Also, if you're scared of the veggie taste, go heavier on the other ingredients.
