I eat oatmeal EVERY day. I'm actually eating a bowl of it right now as I write this post -- no joke. Oatmeal is one of my favorite foods, not only because it's heart healthy and nutritious, but also because it's nutritious, filling and beyond easy to make -- which is perfect for moms that are constantly on-the-go. But I'm not the only one in our house who loves oatmeal. At breakfast, Kenya asks for oatmeal as often as he asks for pancakes, omelets and waffles.
I wanted to come up with a recipe using oatmeal that would be perfect for those days that you're racing out the door and don't have time to cook (I think that's most mornings for many of us). I liked the idea of doing breakfast bars since almost every mom I know always has a LARA, Clif, or Odwala bar in their bag for themselves alongside their wallets, diapers, wipes, and sippy cups. These bars are different from the brands I just mentioned -- they are essentially oatmeal in bar form, but they are equally delicious. Just prepare a batch and keep them in the fridge for several days. All you have to do as you're heading out for the day is grab a few bars for you and your kids and you're set.
For all of you "on-the-go" moms, this bar's for you.
