Pumpkin Pecan Pie "Oatmeal"


1/2 c coconut milk(full fat)
1/2 c pumpkin puree
*1tsp pumpkin pie spice
1TBSP sun butter or almond butter
2TBSP chia seeds (milled or whole)
1TBSP pure maple syrup

*1 egg (hot version ONLY)







I love anything pumpkin, especially in the colder months!  This no oat-oatmeal is just like eating a warm pumpkin pie.  You can mix all the ingredients together and eat as is or you can mix them in a small pot on the stove until nice and hot.  This is a quick healthy and very delicious breakfast.  When making it hot you can add in one egg and whisk until you get the right consistency that you like your oatmeal, this will give it a thicker texture and add in some more protein!  


*Homemade pumpkin pie spice
2TBSP cinnamon
1TBSP ground ginger
1/2TBSP allspice
1/2TBSP ground cloves
1/2TBSP ground nutmeg

Coconut and Berries

*1c Coconut milk
6-8 Strawberries
1/2TBSP Cinnamon
2TBSP Flaxseed meal
1TBSP Chia seed(optional)
1/2 Maca powder(optional)












This is a very quick and healthy alternative to either cereal or my favorite cold muesli.  Mix together you coconut milk, cinnamon, flax, chia and maca.  Then dice up your strawberries and add them in to the mix.  From here you can just eat cold, which is delicious on a hot summer morning.  For a hot breakfast option(thanks to my good friend Maria Christian), heat your coconut milk, cinnamon, flax, chia, and maca on the stove in a pot on medium until nice and thick then drop in your strawberries.  Now for more of a muesli effect, mix all the above ingredients up and let sit in the fridge overnight then pull out in the morning and enjoy.

*Full fat plain unsweetened coconut milk, I use the canned ones.
