I love steel cut oats for breakfast in the morning and I especially love putting blueberries and agave nectar in it. I don't have time in the morning to make it so I boil the water the night before, add the oats put the lid on and refrigerate overnight and then reheat in the morning. I was at my neighbors the other day and she had hot cereal for breakfast but with a lot more grains. She uses amaranth, millet, steel cut oats and quinoa. She uses a pressue cooker but I think you could probably use the same method that I use to make my steel coat oats in case you don't have time to wait 30 minutes for breakfast to be ready. I think this is a great way to add extra beneficial grains to your diet.
Hot Cereal
1 cup steel cut oats
1/4 cup millet
1/4 cup amaranth
1/4 cup quinoa
Boil 4 cups of water. Once boiling add all the grains and cook for about 20-30 minutes til grains are tender. Once tender add a heaping spoonful of Coconut oil and aquave nectar to taste. I also add frozen blueberries. You can make all grains evenly measured, it just depends on your taste. You can also add some milk, almond milk, soymilk and even walnuts or pecans would be a great addition.
My husband is constantly reminding me to eat breakfast once I wake up. He always tells me that if you wait more than 20 minutes your blood sugar will drop. So don't forget to eat your breakfast.:)
