| CHOCOLATE PEANUT BUTTER RASPBERRY OATS |
When I tell you I make this on repeat, I mean, repeat for the past year! It's just such a simple way to get a big dose of protein in the morning, but also great for getting a serving of fruit in, and the perfect vessel to add nutrition bonuses like flax meal, and brazil nuts. Plus it's totally customizable, so it's pretty hard to get sick of. Try out different fruit toppings, different protein powder flavours, add hemp seeds or chia seeds, top with fun nuts like pecans, or drizzle it with pistachio butter! The options are endless.
This was a part of my weekly meal prep series where I also made a spinach salad for lunch, baked pasta, and chocolate crunch bars for dessert.Â

Ingredients:
1 1/3 cup sprouted oats, or preferred oatsÂ
4 scoops Vedge Nutrition Organic Chocolate Peanut Butter Protein (discount code: EVANNRYAN)
1/4 cup flax mealÂ
1/2 cup plain coconut yogurtÂ
3 1/3 cups water *** subject to change based on protein powder, notes in recipe
2 cups raspberries, I buy these frozen in bulk to save and also because they're always in season this way!
Â
Recipe:
Add the oats to a blender and blend into a flour.
Pour the oat flour into a mixing bowl and add protein powder, flax meal, and yogurt.
Next we're going to add water, but the protein powder you use will either make this thicker or thinner, so initially add just 2 cups water. Mix through and check consistency. It should be thick but easily pourable. For me, using Vedge Nutrition, I add 1 1/2 more cups water, equalling 3 1/2 cups water total.Â
Once you have a nice thick and pourable consistency, pour the oat mixture into four meal prep containers, I use these ones every week.
Top each with 1/2 cup raspberries.
Optional nutritional add-on: 1-2 chopped brazil nuts for each bowl. One to two Brazil nuts is all the daily selenium you need. I'm currently taking a good multi-vitamin which contains selenium, but I do often add a Brazil nut or two to my day where I can to ensure I'm getting enough!
Place a tightly sealed lid over all the bowls and set in the fridge overnight.Â
Oats will last for up to 4 days.
Enjoy!
