Berry Oats w/ Bran and Coconut Oil

Posted on 07 May 2010 by sie

Another recipe. Not too different from my usual. I added the bran for fiber and additional nutrients. I am trying to add more nutrient dense items so I can get my calories down. I am trying to stay mostly vegan, although I snitch QB’s vegetarian foods.

Berry Oats w/ Bran and Coconut Oil   (serves 1)

40g Whole Oats
15g Unprocessed Wheat Bran
40g Cranberries
40g Blackberries
4g Organic Coconut Oil
Stevia to taste

I have started cooking my oats in a big pot, making about 6 servings at a time. I boil the berries until they pop, then I add the oats and bran. After the oats are thoroughly cooked, I add the stevia and oil. Now, until today, I have not made this with bran. And, I have not tried the bran version since I made my big pot a day in advance. So, I will update this recipe tomorrow after I try the “with bran” version to say how I think it compares to my non-bran version.
