Power Breakfast

Now, this is a breakfast for champions!


We call it coconut oats and it's a favorite at our house ; )

Coconut Oats

2 1/2 c. steel cut oats
1 can coconut milk
1/2 c. raisins
1/2 c. craisins
2 t. cinnamon
1/4 c. honey
dash of salt

Toppings
1 granny apple diced
1/2 c. chopped almonds

Note:  I soak my almonds overnight in the refrigerator, and drain the liquid in the morning.  This process makes the nuts easier on your digestion which prevents bloating (and in my opinion, makes them even more tasty).   When soaking, use a mason jar, filling it half full with almonds.  Then add purified water to the top.  After draining, nuts will last 3-5 days in the refrigerator.
