Ingredients in this Strawberries and Cream Low Cal Oatmeal
- Oats – The base of every oatmeal but also the key to a hardy breakfast that will keep you satisfied for hours!
- Milk – I use 1% because I think it gives just enough cream without being too high calorie! I usually make oatmeal with water but milk is essential for making this recipe creamy! If you prefer water based oatmeal you’ll love this Snickers Oatmeal!
- Vanilla Extract – Did you know that aside from enhancing flavor, vanilla extract has anti inflammatory properties??
- Zero Calorie Sweetener – This one is optional depending on how sweet you like your oatmeal!
- Salt – Just a dash because it brings out all the other flavors so well!
- Strawberries – Packed with vitamins and minerals and they are in season now! If you are looking for another way to use your strawberries, try this Strawberries and Cream Protein French Toast!
- Whipped Cream – I use sugar free because it does the job for less calories!
Ingredients
- 1/3 cup oats
- 2/3 cup 1% milk
- 1/8 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 tsp zero calorie sweetener optional
- dash salt
- 1/2 cup sliced strawberries
- 2 tbsp sugar free whipped cream
Instructions
- combine milk with oats, vanilla, salt, and zero calorie sweetener.
- Cook in microwave for 1 minute. And then in 30 second increments until desired thickness.
- After 2 minutes, if it’s still runny, I also will leave on the counter with a plate covering the bowl until it thickens up with standing (maybe 10 minutes)
- Mix in strawberries and top with whipped cream!
