Imagine my surprise this morning when Brad groggily answered that he did want to have breakfast with me and he did want to have oatmeal.
Brad is not a big oatmeal kinda guy and he’s also not a big wake-up-super-early-when-he-doesn’t-have-to kinda guy either. What a nice surprise!
Knowing that he loves blubes (as do I), I cooked up some blube-centered oats…
Blueberry cottage cheese oats for two:
1 cup oats (I’m using the oat barley mixture from TJ’s currently)
1 cup water (I forgot to use 1/2 almond milk b/c my brain is still in Italy)
2/3 cup of cottage cheese
bunch of frozen blueberries stirred in near the end to “melt” (~3/4 cup)
1/2 cap organic vanilla extract
topped with AB and organic blube jam
Brad likes oatmeal with cinnamon so I shook a good bit of it on his. He also tried it with jam, which he didn’t try the last time I made it for him. I love the sweetness it adds.
I really love having breakfast with Brad so I hope the early rising doesn’t start to get to him. Unfortunately, I had to suck down my oatmeal in ten minutes (so not good for you), because I had parked on the street the night before and wanted to avoid getting a parking ticket at 7 am. Lucky for me Brad was really helpful doing some of the little things that has the potential to slow me down and make me late.
Happy 2 days until Friday!
