Nutty Oatmeal for New Mom's #recipe

For every new mom, we make a few packs of wholesome oatmeal to take to their first postpartum appointment. Why?

Well, because oatmeal is an awesome whole crain that lowers cholesterol. It is a super food, so while you may or may not be breastfeeding, it is just really healthy to incorporate into your every day routine.

Add in spices, nuts, seeds and a bit of sweetness...it's the perfect breakfast for a new mom who may have been up all night cluster feeding a growing newborn, tending to older children, trying to remember to sleep.

And, oh yeah...eat to fuel her body. Being a mom is exhausting, so if we can help by bringing breakfast...by all means we will!

1/2 cup oats
1 tbsp brown sugar
1 tbsp flaxseed
1 tsp cinnamon
1 tsp hemp seed
1 tsp ground ginger
1 tbsp walnuts

Add boiling water or steamed milk (or almond milk if you are dairy free), and let stand for 2-5minutes. Mix together...and enjoy!
