Hey there! Welcome back! (I might be saying that to myself!)
My last post seems like it was ages ago. Since then, a lot has changed. The biggest change: I am a mom! We welcomed our sweet baby Bear 2 months ago! Maximus Bear Thom has been our greatest blessing and I couldn’t be happier! Since his birth, my husband has cooked me breakfast everyday! I love coming downstairs to my breakfast on the table, thank you Scott.
Peanut butter and jelly oatmeal is something I cook every once in a while. In the past, I have used real peanut butter, but it never gets evenly distributed throughout the oatmeal. I am all about the perfect bite. I need the nutty flavor with every spoonful! Thats where the idea to use peanut powder came about. There are many brands of peanut powder or peanut butter powder, but I love the Trader Joe’s brand. It’s organic, has no added sugars, and it’s inexpensive.
This is a simple but flavorful breakfast option. If you want to add some protein, mix in a scoop of collagen! My favorite brand is Vital Proteins.
I look forward to posting more recipes and workouts for you all! Enjoy!!!
