Porridge Three Ways

With winter upon us it is the perfect to time to experiment and nourish your body with a hearty bowl of hot porridge each morning. Plain old oats can become a little tedious so here are a few varieties to help mix things up.

Dried Fruit Iron Boost Porridge
Cook your oats as per usual and in the last minute throw in a handful of raisins and organic dried apricots. Top with some natural yoghurt (optional) and a sprinkling of cinnamon or mixed spice. You can also add a little protein with a spoonful of LSA (ground linseed, sunflower seed and almond) on top.



Apple and Cinnamon Porridge
Dice an apple (or a pear) and saute in some ghee or butter until tender. Add the porridge, water and half a teaspoon of cinnamon, and cook as usual. Again serve with yoghurt and LSA if desired.

Quinoa and Banana Porridge

This is a healthy, high protein alternative to oat porridge, which is surprisingly delicious. Check out the recipe here .
