Oatmeal raisins and dates breakfast

Oatmeal raisins and dates breakfast

To a bowl of quick oats add boiling water to make your oatmeal then add the following.
1 teaspoon coconut oil
1 rounded teaspoon to 1 tablespoon of chopped dates (note: they are high in sugar so a small amount goes a long way)
1 teaspoon of raisins (optional)
And mix well
Add a teaspoon shredded carrot on top for color
Add almond milk ( milk substitute)
Serve with a small glass of Kefir (better than yogurt) and a cranberry orange muffin with sunflower seeds or toast.

(Warning: dates may have processed in a facility that processes nuts and dairy products. If you have allergies be sure and check product labeling before consuming)
