Porridge doesn’t have to be boring… you can jazz it up so quickly and easily and add a nutritional boost at the same time! 😄

Eating a bowl of porridge in the morning provides so many health benefits (some of which are listed below)…❤

• Regulation of blood sugar
• Reduction of the bad cholesterol (LDL)
• Regulation of appetite
• Complex carbs for energy
• Contains high amounts of iron
• High in phosphorus which can help with muscle recovery
• Good source of calcium (even more so if made with milk)
• High levels of vitamin A

Nutty Blueberry Porridge

Ingredients

• Porridge Oats – 45g
• Milk – approx. 1 cup (use as much or little as you like depending on your preference)

• Walnuts – 2/3
• Linseeds – 0.5 tsp
• Sunflower seeds – 0.5 tsp
• Pumpkin Seeds – 0.5 tsp

NB/ I get my linseeds, sunflower seeds, pumpkin seeds and goji berries in a milled mix so it’s all crushed up together and easy to sprinkle. 👍

Making your Porridge

1. Add the milk to the porridge oats and use saucepan on cooker (cook through until the right texture) or microwave for about 2 minutes (or until right texture for you)
2. Pop the frozen blueberries in a pan for 1-2 mins until defrosted or microwave for 30 seconds – take out and stir – back in for 15 seconds
3. Pop the blueberries onto the porridge

Enjoy your nutritious blueberry porridge! 😆
