Have you ever used tea instead of water or milk to make your oats in the morning? Well lets just say it gives boring old oats a new burst of flavor! I used Oregon Chai and it worked out perfect. You could also try with green tea, or even bright fruity flavored tea.

INGREDIENTS:

1/2 cup quick oats
1 cup water
1 Chai tea bag
1 dash of cinnamon
1/2 tsp vanilla extract

TOPPINGS:

banana, strawberries, pomegranate seeds, coconut milk,& coconut sugar

METHOD:

Boil water on stove top & add tea bag- let seep for around 2 min
Stir in oats and lower heat, let cook for 5 min siring occasionally
Add in cinnamon & vanilla extract
Pour into bowl and top with favorite toppers- this morning mine included: banana, strawberries, pomegranate seeds, coconut sugar and coconut milk.
* You can also add 1/2 scoop of protein power into your oats for added protein
