S'Mores Oatmeal


I am obsessed with the Hungry Girl's oatmeal breakfast bowls. And I am obsessed with anything S'mores related. So this recipe was a win win for me. The only thing bad about the Hungry Girl oatmeal recipes is that I did not have a lot of the the ingredients on hand at first. But once you get them, they are almost every oatmeal recipe. Like the 25 calorie pack of hot cocoa mix. I have regular hot chocolate mix in my pantry but not the 25 calorie pack version. And I still did not find that kind, I got a 50 calorie package, which to me was fine. She also calls to use Almond Breeze almond milk in all the oatmeal recipes. One good thing about this is that it lasts longer than regular milk in the fridge. This oatmeal is awesome and you do not miss the sugar or calories. I am sure you will be seeing lots of these recipes from me.
