blended grains

I got up this morning craving oats! After seeing Heather eat bowl after bowl of green oats I knew I needed to try this little concoction. I decided to try the blended grain technique in the VitaMix as well, considering I don’t really think there is a better way to get the spinach fully blended.

Here is my bowl of green goodness oats:

The greenery was topped with a sample sized portion of PB2!

my thoughts:

The blended oat technique is totally on par. Just when you thought oat bran couldn’t get creamer, the VitaMix goes and proves you wrong! I loved, loved, loved the creaminess. The only thing I did not love is all the extra dishes to wash. We don’t have a dishwasher people!! I’m lying- we actually have two, Sir Isaac and Madam Brittany. So yea, I had a sink full of dishes and they were all from me and my breakfast. So I do love the blended grains, but I might have to save them for weekends.

Besides the color of the oats- I really didn’t notice the spinach that much. I guess if I didn’t eat lots of green veggies throughout the day, hiding blending spinach in my oatmeal might be something I would consider more often, however I think I’ll stick to having it for other meals or for breakfast in omeletes. Although, I still need to try making my own green smoothie and that might end up being a spinach for breakfast type of thing. That shall happen soon!

As for the PB2, you must wait for my review, I have a date with the gym that is way overdue.

I’m thinking that I should probably become a rapper!
