Strawberries and Cream No-Oat Oatmeal
Sweet strawberries and creamy milk come together in this high-protein no-oat oatmeal that is light, refreshing, and packed with nutrients.
Growing up I remember buying the Quaker packs of flavored oatmeal, so I had to create the flavor in a healthier high-protein balanced breakfast that combines fresh strawberries with creamy milk for a delicious breakfast in less than 10 minutes. This version of strawberries and cream oatmeal is made low-carb, gluten-free, and vegan, but is so creamy and delicious you’ll never miss the oats. Filled with plenty of fiber, healthy fats, and protein to keep your blood sugar balanced and hormones happy. Such a sweet, fresh, and creamy way to start your day!
