"Candy Bar" Oatmeal

I think it's safe to say that we all have those mornings (I'm talking to YOU, Mondays) when we feel like we need a candy bar. It's also safe to say that eating a candy bar for breakfast probably wouldn't be the best idea! I had one of those mornings today, so I decided to experiment with a healthier alternative to satisfy my sweet tooth and give me enough nutrients and energy to start my day off right. Thus, "candy bar" oatmeal was born! This tasty breakfast is full of protein, fiber, and lots of flavor!



And the best part is, it's simple enough to make in a dorm room without a kitchen! It was so delicious and easy to make that I'm already looking forward to eating it for breakfast tomorrow.

Candy Bar Oatmeal: 

1/2 cup rolled oats
1 cup water
1 spoonful chia seeds
1 spoonful flax seed
2 spoonfuls of coconut flakes
1 spoonful chocolate chips
1 spoonful natural crunchy peanut butter
Frozen raspberries (as many as you'd like) 

First add the water to the rolled oats and pop it in the microwave for a minute and a half. Then, add all of the toppings, stir it all together, and ENJOY!
