Since I am obsessed with Trader Joe's and the products they sell I decided why not have some fun with it? I'm going to start Trader Joe's Tuesdays where I will be featuring recipes made with some of my favorite Trader Joe's products. And no I'm not being paid for this advertisement, but of course I wouldn't turn free money down if they did want to pay me. *wink*wink*
Today I'm featuring their Quick Cook Steel Cut Oats, which come in a normal size oat container perfect for a family of 2. I used the quick oats to make Michigan Baked Oatmeal, which turned out delicious!
The thing I love about this recipe is that there are so many other ingredients you could add. Several recipes recommended adding dried cherries and sliced almonds (also sold at Trader Joe's), which I will be trying next! Drew and I talked about making a batch of this on Sunday nights so that we can have it for breakfast all week during the work week. Re-heat and go and you have a healthy and nutritious breakfast that even someone recovering from oral surgery can eat!
We have only recently discovered Trader Joe's, but it is safe to say we are obsessed! Any recipes with coconut oil? That's my latest adventure!
